Covey focuses on the etymology of the wo r d ",initiative", po r trayed by Victo r Frankl, bestselling autho r In Search of Meaning. You can be proactive, Act o r react dependent when it comes to how to respond to certain things. When you do react, you will blame others a nd circumstances fo r obstacles o r problems. Being preemptive means taking responsibility fo r every aspect of your life. Initiate, take the necessary measures, a nd then follow up on your life a nd take us out of the victim.
