The ability to subordinate impulse to value is the very essence of proactive people
update:
I won't get angry at the "Mrs. M" for her lack of tactness with me. I also won't backbite her with my office mates (who would love to!). I can get my angry evil impulses under control. The values I learnt from my religion are "Don't get angry.. don't get angry.. don't get angry" and "Do not backbite each other". First piece of proactivity of the day ;)
update 2
And as I am not getting angry at anybody, and as I am not allowing myself to dwell on a simple situation by gossiping, my mode wont change over such little things ;) I feel good :)
