How can I react?

If you find nothing wrong in my question in the heading, you might need to have a re look.

The definition of 'React' is basically an action or an outburst either emotional or physical response to a given situation. 'Respond' is an action taken after analysis the situation. So, one can't plan/prepare to 'React'.

Instead of solving the problem, 'reacting' would intensify the problem density. Not just in professional life but also in personal life, one should know how to respond to crisis.

It is a fight between your mind and head. Your head has to win to 'Respond'. In reality, mind wins most of the time. It is easy to say, but hard to practice.

Whatever be the scenario, when an auto-driver drives in your way suddenly; when your project managers gives hard time to you; your team member not working on your assignments; when your wife reacting a way you are uncomfortable with...., you should master the art of responding.
