What do you do when all life seems to send you is questions?
Answer them, of course. The better answer, though, is maybe to just wait. There's a huge difference between taking quick action and reacting. Taking action requires forethought and decisiveness. Reacting is instinctual, and not premeditated.
In life, the best decisions are made with thought. I've made it a point in my life to try not to be reactive. When things seem to not be going your way, you have to learn to roll with the punches - but more importantly, read the situation as a whole. I recently had a friend ask, "How can you be so calm? How can you not be mad?" The answer was simply, "It's not worth it." And that's the truth. You have to be able to filter the important from the trivial. The stuff that really matters from the stuff you can let slide.
Once you've mastered that, you can outlast them all.
