is Proactive

While external factors have the ability to cause pain, your inner character doesn’t need to be damaged. What matters most is how your respond to these experiences. Proactive individuals focus their efforts on the things they can change, whereas reactive people focus their efforts on the areas of their lives in which they have no control. They amass negative energy by blaming external factors for their feelings of victimization. This, in turn, empowers other forces to perpetually control them.
