①Life is full of unexpected moments—like a sudden test or a friend forgetting our plans. When these happen, we often face a choice: to react(反应) right away or to respond(回应) thoughtfully? These two words sound similar, but they are different ways to solve problems. Knowing the difference helps us make smarter choices.
②Reacting is what our brain does naturally—it's fast, and it comes from our first feelings. Here are the situations: if you get a bad test grade, you might throw the paper angrily or say “I'm terrible!” without thinking. If a friend breaks your favourite pencil, you might shout at him before he says sorry. That's reacting: something happens, strong feelings come, and you act without pausing(停顿). This often leads to regrets because you don't take time to cool down or see the whole picture.
③Responding, however, is more thoughtful. Before solving the problem, it helps to create more space. This space helps us to notice our feelings and understand the situation clearly. It may take a longer time, but we'll greatly avoid our regrets later. Four steps help us respond in a smart way: pause, process, plan, and act.
④This way of responding works for many kinds of problems. We might just leave our homework at home or have a fight with a friend. Instead of reacting right away, try the following four steps: first, stop and take three deep breaths. Second, say to ourselves how we're feeling and find out what the problem is. Third, think about what choices we have. Fourth, choose the best one and do it.
⑤A study from the University of California, Los Angeles shows that a simple thing works out well when we're processing—speaking out our feelings like saying “I'm worried” or “I'm angry.” It can greatly make us feel less worried, because we jump out of the situation to see the whole picture.
⑥At every crossroad, we may meet unexpected moments. The choice between reacting and responding greatly affects our life journey. By practicing the art of thoughtful response again and again, we change the unexpected into chances for improving ourselves.
