Maturity continuum
BE PROACTIVE
Proactive people recognize that they are
"response-able."
Being proactive - taking conscious control over life.
Insteadof reacting to events and waiting for opportunities,
you go out and create your own events and opportunities.
Being proactive means -instead of merely reacting to
events as they happen, you consciously engineer your
Lets use these tools that
God has given each of us
• Conscience - You can make decisions based on unchanging
principles
• Creative Imagination - the ability to visualize alternatives.
By using your imagination, you can mentally generate and
evaluate different options.
• Independent Will - You aren’t forced to conform to what
others expect from you.
Reactive people: when things are pretty good,
life is mostly on autopilot.
Set goals
Don’t give up your GOALS!
If you can't fly,
run!
If you can't walk,
crawl!
But whatever
you do, keep
moving towards
your Goal........
Some examples of reactive [proactive] language:
• Where is the industry going? [Where shall I go next, and how
will I get there?]
• I don’t have time to exercise. [How shall I make time to
exercise?]
• How much money can I expect to make if I do X? [How much
money do I want to make, and what will I do to earn it?]
• I’ll try it and see what happens. [I'll do it.]
• I’m too tired. [What can I do to increase my energy?]
• I’ve never been very good at math. [How can I improve my math
skills and enjoy the process?]
• Nothing really inspires me. [What would I tackle if I knew I
couldn't fail?]
What is the meaning of life? [What is the
meaning I wish to give to my life?]
Pursuit of Happyness

BE ASSERTIVE
Assertiveness is about respect - for self and others.
Assertive communication is “grownup”
communication.
Assertive people have the following characteristics:
• You feel free to express facts, thoughts,
feelings.
• Openness - clear and specific lack of openness
often leads to misunderstanding.
• “I feel irritated … unlikely to be misinterpreted.
Aggressive
• I know what I want and usually get it
• Its kill or be killed
• Other people know what I'm like and have to put up with
me
• I don't suffer fools gladly - I like to win
Passive
• I prefer to keep quiet and not be outspoken
• If I don't rock the boat I'll be OK
• I don't always know what I want, so I usually let others
decide
• I'd rather not cause a fuss but I feel that people ignore
me
Assertive
• I like being involved in whats going on
• I work to live, not live to work
• I work out what I want, listen to others, then discuss
plans
Assertiveness is about respect - for self and
others. Assertive communication is
“grownup” communication.
Openness implies being clear and specific
about what you want, think and feel. A lack
of openness often leads to
misunderstanding. “I feel irritated …I am
not motivated…are statements that are
clear and unlikely to be misinterpreted.
• Directness means addressing the person / situation
directly. For example, if you are in a group and
want to say something to someone, communicate
directly with that person instead of addressing the
whole group or using sarcasm and hoping that the
person gets the message
• Appropriateness implies taking the social and
cultural context into consideration before
communicating. In other words, don't forget your
manners!
– Assertive people have control over their
anger. It does not mean that they repress
this feeling. It means that they control it
for a moment and then talk about it later
in a logical way.
Sorry for sermonizing…
• Compete with yourself, not others -
People with healthy self-esteem compete
only with themselves. The less self-
assured person feels compelled to equal or
surpass his colleagues' success because
they equate their self-esteem with
success, and hence feel threatened with
someone more successful. They endlessly
seek approval and applause, feel happy
when they get it or devastated when they
fail or are criticized.
A tool- 'DESC'
• The acronym 'DESC' stands for
'Describe, Express, Specify,
Consequences'.
• 'Describe' of the DESC script- you say
what seems to you to be happening.
• In the 'Express' part, you say how it's
making you feel. In the 'Specify' part, you
say what you'd like to happen.
– Finally, in the 'Consequences' part, you
say what will happen if you don't get
what you want.
COLLABORATE,
COLLABORATE,
COLLABORATE!
• This will make you a transformational figure.
From Goodness to Greatness!
• Professional experience is not just a series of
transactions, but rather as an opportunity to
touch and connect lives.
Begin with…
• Requirements gathering- the entire
context- to include all the
stakeholders
• Know your customers’ demographics
• Is there a gap to be filled?
• Be on a constant lookout for
opportunities

thought... He can only be
reformed by showing a new idea
which commends his own." New
ideas spur progress.
• Stretch your abilities and skills on such as artistic
interests, communication, writing, and so on.
• Talk about your goals to those who can help you
achieve them. Regular staff meetings open the chance
to discuss such matters.

measure to actually finish what you start. Because no
task is useful unless completed.
