Overview

Determinism Determinism - the doctrine that all events, including humanaction, are ultimately determined by causes external to thewill. Some philosophers have taken determinism to imply thatindividual human beings have no free will and cannot be heldmorally responsible for their actions. Genetic Determinism – Your grandparents did it to you Psychic Determinism – Your parents did it to you Environmental Determinism – Society did it to you Stimulus - Response Your actions are pre-programmed Can you think of an area in your life where you apply this?

Thought Exercise Take a minute tothink about yourself Let your mind out ofyour body What are you doinghere? Why are youdoing it? How do youfeel about it?

Self-Awareness The ability to think about thought itself. Humans have it. Animals don’t. What does this allow us to do? Imagination – we can create things beyond the present reality Conscience – awareness of the principles that govern right andwrong Independent Will – Freedom to act based on our self awarenessalone

Victor Frankl

Free Will Determinism is overturned by free will. Our self-awareness, imagination, conscience,and independent will allow us to make choicesremoved from stimulus. You choose your response to the world

What is Proactivity? pro·ac·tive adjective: proactive (of a person, policy, or action) creating or controlling a situationby causing something to happen rather than responding to itafter it has happened. What does that mean? See your world as a product of what you have done to it Act first on your own volition Take responsibility for your actions Contrast with reactive Where do you see this in real life?

Take the Initiative You have to undergo a paradigm shift. We want to see the world as acting on us We have to see us as acting on it See the circumstances you have for what they are. Then, seewhat you can do in response. There is always a solution “Solution selling” is one of the most highly valued skills on themarket Ask yourself what you are doing, not what you have Initiative is what forms these habits to begin with. Note: This is NOT positive thinking.

Circle of Concern vs Influence Circle of Concern – The things that act on usCircle of Influence – The things we act onProactivity widens the Circle of Influence. Reactivity shrinks it.Where do we want our circles to be? Where are your circles right now?

The Difficulties of Proactivity Being proactive is HARD. We need to change ourselves to be more proactive, but thisREQUIRES proactivity. Proactivity means YOU take responsibility Few of us like to admit that we’re at fault. We will NOT always succeed. Consequences need to be accepted, and failure learned from. There are things OUTSIDE our control. Alcoholics Anonymous Prayer: God, grant me the serenity toaccept the things I cannot change, the courage to change thethings I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.

The Reward is IMMENSE.
