How do you think of your life? Do you respond or react to everything that comes your way?
I know people who do no planning, and I bet you know some of these people too. There are also people who detail-plan everything. The question here is, have you thought ahead to how you would respond or react to a possible situation?
How would you react if you got fired? Last week’s trivia question was about famous people who got fired. Do you think they thought about getting fired, or do you think it was a surprise when the firing took place? And how did they react to the firing?
You see, bad things happen to most of us in life. Do we prepare ourselves for the things that happen to us- someone we love dies, someone we know gets divorced, someone has an accident, the UCLA Bruins lose a football game. How do we see ourselves reacting to things we would rather not have happen to us?
I do not want you to put negative things in your mind, but if negative things happen, then how are you going to respond? If positive things happen, how are you going to respond?
Planning for how to react to different situations can make us be better at life.
