Motivational Mondays with Trisha: Less Reactive

You know, it was hard finding quotes for reactive antonyms. They were all negative, which almost made being reactive look like a virtue. The opposite of reactive is someone that is out of touch with their emotions, which then turns into toxic behavior. That’s not what I wanted to promote today. Turns out, adding “less” helped me find quotes that could get my point across. Asking a reactive person to become proactive at the flip of a dime is an unreasonable amount of time to make a 180° personality adjustment. That doesn’t mean they can’t put in the effort to become less reactive. I acknowledge that it’s easier said than done for different types of people. That being said reactive behavior is physically, mentally, and emotionally exhausting. So, fewer reactive moments benefits everyone.
