Personal reflection exercises

I allow myself to rise above the challenges by being proactive

Challenges in life are inevitable and I am not afraid of them. I know that I am smart and that I was given the ability to plan and problem-solve by my Creator.

I take an active role in my own life. I let go of the idea that I am a victim of my circumstances. Instead, I use my God-given power of intelligence to plan strategies ahead of time that help me deal with the bumps in my road.

Because I am an intelligent adult, I have the freedom to change my circumstance if I find them unacceptable. No one is forcing me to stay in challenging situations. I stay because I choose to do so, or I leave because I feel it is best. Either way, the choice is mine.

I let go of impulsive reactivity. I know that I am in charge of my own life. I draw strength from the knowledge I have within me to face each challenge. Because I am confident of this, I can face each new situation calmly and reflectively, making decisions based on what I know to be best.

If I need help in sorting through my thoughts and options, I am not afraid to ask for help from those who have lived longer or experienced more of life. Doing so is a sign of maturity, not weakness, and is an important part of my decision to live intelligently.

Self-Reflection Questions:


1. Am I proactive or reactive when faced with challenges?
2. How can I let go of feeling like a victim and start accepting control of my life?
3. Who will I confide in when I need help making wise choices?
 

Mind quotes

If you are distressed by anything external, the pain is not due to the thing itself, but to your estimate of it. And this you have the power to revoke at any moment.
