Habit 1: Be proactive
Habit 1: Be proactive
Содержание
Being proactive means taking responsibility for our actions, attitudes, and impact on others — instead of reacting to external circumstances. It is the first and most fundamental habit of personal leadership, as it empowers us to choose our responses rather than being driven by emotions, conditions, or the behavior of others.
In youth work, being proactive is about helping young people recognize that they are not passive recipients of life’s events, but active agents of change. It’s about understanding that while we can’t always control what happens to us, we can always choose how we respond.
The Circle of Influence activity had made this visible. You mapped out the people who affected your lives—family, friends, work, and learning. By identifying positive and negative influences, you reflected on who supported your growth and creativity.
This shift from reactive to proactive thinking nurtures self-awareness, responsibility, and empowerment. It supports the development of resilience and initiative — qualities that are essential for personal growth, social participation, and creative leadership in youth work.
