Reaction and response may seem to signify the same thing, but there is a big difference. When something that we don't like happens, How do we handle?. Do we rush to conclusions, lose our composure and start to attack the problem without thinking much, or we remain calm, collect the facts and then respond to the problem?.
When we respond to the problem in a calm and correct manner after gathering all the information, we will always be successful. We will never lose our image and respect. Rememeber, it takes a lot of time to gain respect, but takes a second of foolish act to lose it.
Next time, whenever we are faced with tough and provoking situations, let us atleast take a couple of minutes before we react to the situation. Those two minutes will be very helpful to avoid many unpleasent happenings. May be your boss irritates you, or a coworker or neighbour is of nuisance. Take some time analyze the situation and then handle it. It is also true that only in those moments, God can speak to us. Let us always remember that we need to be smart, and not foolish in our actions.
