You can either live your life on Offense or Defense. You can be moving forward, taking chances and seeking out positive results or you can find yourself perpetually on the defensive where you’re stuck in a mindset of always defending, guarding and hunkering down.
Too often in life we operate in a reactive state. We depend on the answers and opinions of others for acceptance.
