“We first make our habits, then our habits make us.” - Stephen R. Covey
Habit 1: • Proactive Behavior • Proactive people use the margin of freedom to make choices that best apply their values. Their freedom to choose expands as they wisely use the space between stimulus and response.
Stimulus Response FREEDOM TO CHOOSE ACCORDING TO VALUES Proactive Behavior
Reactive Behavior Reactive people allow outside influences (moods, feelings, or circumstances) to control their responses. Stimulus Response
Proactive and Reactive Language • Here’s an idea • If only • There’s nothing I can do • I choose to go • Forget about it • I have to go • Let’s explain some alternatives • I can • I have to do this
“It’s not what people do to us that hurts us. In the most fundamental sense it is our chosen response to what they do to us that hurts us.” - Stephen R. Covey “Nothing can make you feel inferior without your consent.” - Eleanor Roosevelt
Theories of Determinism • Reactive people blame their attitude and behavior on things they think they cannot control. They respond to stimulus, often attributing their behavior to three determinants: • Genetic- traits we inherited • Psychic- our upbringing • Environmental- our surroundings
