To React or Respond

“When you react to someone’s emotion, you have lost control of one thing you can control, yourself”- Amaury Murgado

Reaction is immediate, Reflexive & emotional.It allows others to control you & is based on short term outlook.

Response is more informed based on evaluation of the situation. It gives the ability to influence the outcome & is based on long term view.

I used to react to a situation & was driven by emotions .But moving towards being responsive has changed my life towards being more informed & in control.

Steps to be more responsive
Take a pause
Recognise emotions
Be more Empathetic
Take a step back

Next time when you are faced with a problem or change then THINK how will you RESPOND & not how will you REACT.
