The key differences between proactive and reactive people are that proactive people are prepared and make good choices, while reactive people are caught off guard and deal with problems as they happen. The document provides tips for becoming more proactive, such as using empowering language, focusing on one's circle of influence, and applying self-awareness to choose responses.
