Let’s play a game!!!

Remember – Quality cannot be compromised!
BEING PROACTIVE
I do not blame others for my wrong actions.
I am a responsible person.
I choose my actions, attitudes, and moods.
I do the right thing without being asked, even when no one is
looking.
PROACTIVE VS REACTIVE
Proactive –Creating or controlling a situation rather than just responding to it.
Reactive -Acting in response to a situation rather than creating or controlling it.
If you are waiting for someone to help you, you may end up waiting a long
time;
take charge and be Proactive, take charge of each day...
