Do You REACT or RESPOND To Life?

4/11/2017

1 Comment

 
​Living with purpose and being in control of our lives requires us to respond to challenges, and not just react to them. However, we need to be able to respond at all times, especially when faced with an unexpected stressful or potentially emotional situation. In this episode, I break down the difference between these two terms as they relate to you taking control of your life, and I challenge you to ask yourself some important questions that will facilitate that consistent control.

The physical experience of anxiety is the same as the physical experience of excitement from an arousal standpoint. Both of these emotions stem from the experience of our sympathetic nervous system being activated. The only difference is how we think about the experience, consciously or unconsciously.

However, most people are told or taught to ignore what other people think of them, and not to pay any attention to what other people have to say. In some instances, where people are attempting to be hurtful that is a good idea.

​But in this episode, I elaborate on why we should hesitate to dismiss all of what people have to say or think, and how we should actually welcome feedback, even criticism from others, in an attempt to use their perspective as information we can learn and grow from.

​There is a movement taking place.
​

​A shift, or process I refer to as “Active Evolution”, where Homo sapiens are becoming humans. The distinction I am going to make between the two is about much more than semantics. In regards to the paradigm I am going to try to impress upon you, these two words do not represent the same thing...
