Winners are proactive, not reactive. Winners create new circumstances instead of reacting to them.

If you know someone who is continually complaining about their circumstances, they are practicing reactivity.

If you know someone who is continually working to create a better life for themselves, their family, and their community, they are practicing proactivity.

During the stay-at-home orders of the Novel-Coronavirus Pandemic, reactive people are sitting around complaining about their circumstances. Proactive winners are finding joy in their circumstances and helping others.

“If you are proactive, you don’t wait for circumstances or other people to create perspective expanding experiences. You can consciously create your own.” – Stephen R. Covey.

If you don’t like the way things are, complaining won’t change your circumstances – action will.
