Being proactive empowers you to be your own cheerleader. It encourages you to strategize and learn to re-strategize faster when things seem to go amiss. I acknowledge that it is important to esteem and listen to the constructive opinions of others. But while you can take note of positive advice and criticism, do not build your life around these things. This is because they are usually offered based on the aspect/perspective people have seen. A change in perspective or a twist to the story might produce an entirely different opinion.

Proactivity extends to all areas of our lives as Eleanor Roosevelt rightly noted: “No one can hurt you without your consent”. I daresay that even when we might be our own antagonists, it is because we permitted it. It is usually our willing permission, our consent to what happens to us that hurts us far more than the incident itself. <<https://theladysroom.ng/being-proactive-and-winning-in-life/
