This question is about proactive vs reactive.

Is it bad to be proactive all the time?

By Zippia Team - Dec. 7, 2022

It isn't bad to try to always be proactive, but it's impossible to achieve it entirely. Proactiveness is a good thing; however, there are always going to be unforeseen circumstances. And there are circumstances where you have to react quickly, where stopping to plan would be detrimental.

It's important to be able to accept that no one can plan for everything or foresee every potential pitfall. A balance of proactiveness and reactiveness is required for almost every situation.
