Action vs Reaction

Men = action
Women = Reaction

This is what I’m reminding myself since watching halfway of RSD blue print decode dvd 11. There’s lotts of great things there but I want to talk about Action vs Reaction.

I think, the major differents for most asian cultured guys and western cultured, are the ability to make choices. The way I grow up, I was taught to make a decisions by having my choices taken away. So, my decision is not base on choice but rather a reaction to a given scenario. I was train to merely react.

For example, my childhood budd have a passion for being a pilot or involve in military, but it was denied by parents.

As for me, I was denied for my will to pursue psychology in another town years ago, it was my passion and it still is. So as an alternative, I took a computer diploma. I didn’t fight at all for the chances to study psychology, I just accept the reality that there isn’t any college that offer psychology or the only one that did, denied me for my qualification.

So, if I were to only react whole my life, then I would still end up playing dota, being the hermit. Maybe I would get inspired by the game, maybe I’ll do some approaches because I was motivated. That is reaction.

Action, is being the one making things happen. Like making a video on my date. Making a kiss happen in 5 mins. I mean, my first grinding doesn’t happen if I don’t ask that chick to dance. If I were to react to my emotions, I’ll just say to myself “nah, I’m pretty fun dancing here” but I didn’t. I was debating to myself “what should I say?” “what’s my opener?” But the final answer was “fuck it, let’s just ask her to dance, no fancy thing”

Action is dominant. Action is moving  forward. Reaction is surrender, lying still, fleeting.

So my dear friends, be action. And Please do leave a comment.
