What's the difference between proactive and reactive?

<p>What&#39;s the difference between proactive and reactive? Well, reactive is pretty apparent. It&#39;s like you step on a landmine, and next thing you know, things are going terribly; you&#39;re in drama. Proactive means that you&#39;re filtering what you&#39;re experiencing, particularly if they&#39;re words being said to you, and you decide to calmly decide how to handle them without being reactive or going over the top. It can be difficult, but reactive is a knee-jerk reaction. And proactive means that you have the plan to think through what you&#39;re going to do, especially when it&#39;s a surprise. Practicing being proactive takes a lot of work, and how you handle things is based on your ability to be calm at the moment. I love you.
