Neither proactive nor reactive planning is inherently negative, but they serve different purposes and are useful in various situations.

• Active planning is proactive, focusing on anticipating needs, setting long-term goals, and preparing for the future. It helps you stay ahead of potential challenges and create a strategic path forward.
• Reactive planning is about responding to situations as they happen. It’s all about adaptability and quick problem-solving when the unexpected occurs.

Both approaches have their place. Active planning helps you stay organized and reduce stress in the long run, while reactive planning keeps you flexible and ready to handle surprises. The key is knowing when to use each to your advantage!
