A Day in the Reactive Mind

Let's look at a day in life seen through the lens of the reactive mind.

From morning til night - from the moment you get out of bed until you find yourself back in it - it feels like you've done nothing but struggle to catch up. Your life feels like a succession of moments where you just get swept away, with very little say or sense of control. You no longer know where you're going or why. Your life feels like it's completely beyond your control and you can't remember the last time you took purposeful action towards a meaningful goal.

How much room for gratitude exists in living life this way? How grateful are you likely to feel when everything seems to be spinning out of control? What happens to a sense of self-sovereignty and self-worth as you spend your days feeling like this? Establishing a strong gratitude attitude on these foundations may prove challenging to say the least.
