» Create or React

Article written by Sharon Capehart with 0 views in Self Improvement category.

We are constantly bombarded with choices every day. Choices are responsible for giving us opportunities to create instead of reacting to them. You might get overwhelmed when presented with choices, but instead you should think of it as an open door to something new. We are given choices that force us to create because whether we like it or not, we are all co-creators in this universe. This is how we are different from other earthly species. Deciding to react negatively to a very difficult choice will hinder you from moving forward.

Every day, there is always going to be something new to create, so decide in your mind not to react to situations that appear harder than they really seem. Do you want to spend your day wishing you had done this or that? Or do you want to look back and say, "job well done!"

Reacting to an event is extremely counterproductive because that event will surely pass. This is why we have night and day. Both come and go, don"t they? This is how problems are as well. You can make an impact and use the issue to create a solution. All problems have solutions and this is where you come into play. Don"t wait for someone else to do it. Step up to the plate. You might just create a new solution that no one else thought about.

We sometimes react unconsciously because our thoughts are channeled toward the impossible. Nothing is impossible. There is never a problem that does not have the potential to be solved. Why not let it be you? What will be your choice in the matter? Think positively and you will get positive results. Never encourage thoughts of anything being too hard for you. You have the ability to think things through. You are no different from anyone else. Common sense is all you need.

Do you know that you expend more energy when you react than when you create? Yes, you sure do. A reaction from you constitutes emotions that can hyperventilate your heart and arrest your mind into a standstill and inert position. You will never get anything done that way. A negative reaction means that you have given up any hope of a solution when you react negatively. You haven"t even tried and yet you are throwing in the towel.

Are you dodging the bullet? Is it fear? Or is it just a resolution to let someone else do it? If you don"t deal with it now, it may pop up again and then be worse than it was before.

Take control of every situation that presents itself in your life. Decide what action you will take and make it positively creative. It will always benefit both you and others.

There are so many people who spend most of their days worrying about stuff. Instead of worry, why not use the issues to seek a resolution? Worry is a form of reaction to a problem. Believe me, all worry does is to make you sick with stress and frustration. It is not worth it. You have to rise above it and learn how to not be engulfed by worry.

If you can learn how to create a solution from the illusion of what you may call a problem, you will have gained the momentum for success.
