The first habit of a highly effective teen is to be “proactive”. What this means is that you should not approach a situation with a bad attitude. Being proactive also means that you should do something that will have a good outcome, rather than a bad one. Some of the examples of me being proactive would be when my sister broke something that I worked really hard on; I did not get all mad at her. Instead of getting mad at my sister for breaking the thing that I had worked really hard on, I told her that it might be a lot of fun to build it again. This other time when my mom told me that I could not have the dessert that I wanted instead of having a fit about it I asked her if I could have one next time. In both of these situations because I was proactive, the situation had a better out come than it might have had, if I had not been proactive.


Some of the ways that I plan to implement that idea of being proactive to my life, is to always think what could have happened if I was not proactive about the situation. I will also implement the thought of being proactive by making sure that my wife and children will be proactive in any situation. The reason that I will make sure that my family is proactive is because I think that it might make the family a better family to be around. I also will make sure that my family is proactive because you should always be proactive, whether it is at home or out in public. I will also make sure that I only hang around the people that are proactive. The reason that I will make sure that I only hang around people that are proactive, is because if I do not I might pick up on the non-proactive things that the people do. I think that if I implement the idea of being proactive to my life, it will make me a better person, and it might make life a bit better.


The movie The Pursuit of Happyness has many instances were being proactive led to a better out come to the bad situation. One of the ways that being proactive helped them was instead of the father just giving up the father kept pushing to help make him and his son’s life better. Another way the dad was proactive was when the mother got all mad at the father, the father did not get mad at the mother. The last and I think the best example of being proactive was when the father got a better job to help him and his son’s life better all together. I think that if the father had not been proactive in the situations that he had been placed in, the movie would have probably have a different outcome the it had when the father was being proactive. Even though the mother was not proactive the father was, and I thin that it really great that he could do that, given the situations that he had been placed in.
