Habit 1: Be Proactive
The Habit of Choice
Proactive people choose their own way and take responsibility for the results. You are being proactive when you:
- Remain calm.
- Take responsibility.
- Think before acting.
- Focus on solutions.
- Take initiative to make things happen.
- See alternatives, not roadblocks.
- Focus on what you can influence.
Kid Language
You're in Charge: I am a responsible person. I take initiative. I choose my actions, attitudes, and moods. I do not blame others for my wrong actions. I do the right thing without being asked, even when no one is looking.
Ways to practice Be Proactive:
- Start sentences with “I choose to…” “I get to…” “I want to…” “I can…”
- The next time you feel bored, do something nice for someone else.
- Try doing something today that you’ve always been scared to do. Make a new friend or raise your hand in class.
- If you do something wrong, say you’re sorry before someone asks you to apologize.
