n the course of life, although some sets the plans and goals
and draw the paths to achieve their goals, nevertheless we may
come to encounter some events and changes that were not in
mind.
These events contribute significantly in changing us and making
us deviate from the paths and goals that we have set and consid-
ered a curriculum for our lives.
These events force us to make decisions that may change our
lives forever. I have found out, through close observations of my
behavior with my family, friends, and work colleagues that there
are three models of interaction with such events:
Type I:
Rejection and refusal, in which the person strongly resists
the change or event in his life. He only considers the negatives,
that leads to his failure in achieving and goals or ambitions, he
starts to reflect negative vibes to his surroundings, and interacts
with the encountered event or change as a destroying power. He
retreats rather than standing still and pursue with his life.
Type II:
Indolence, lack of enthusiasm, and non-interaction with
the event, where the person acts depressingly, considers the
event as complete failure that falls within a series of failures he
encountered in his life. He shut down on himself, stops trying to
find the positives, or even ways to benefit from any opportunity in
his life, or even search within the negatives affects for means of
how to fix or change the course of his life.
Type III: Coexistence and adaption to the event. This person per-
ceives everything with a positive view and perspective, considers
every event or change that pass in his life as an opportunity for
change. He interacts and analyses everything in a positive man-
ner in order to change his plans and eventually achieve his goals.
He is flexible, reflects positive vibes to his surroundings, and looks
for alternative solutions that contribute to his success and the
achievement of his desired goals.
Whatever is your choice in life, your reaction towards the various
events and changes, whether to be impulsive, negative, or coex-
istent, which will be reflected in the decision or series of decisions
you will take in your life! Make sure the decisions you take are
suitable and it will contribute to the achievement of your goals
