Being impulsive means you're fun, creative and quick on your feet. Here's why you can be proud to be an impulsive person!

You’re confident in yourself

You go with your gut instinct, follow your heart, and adhere to any other positive bodily responses of the like. Your choices aren’t based on other people’s reactions, money or ulterior motives, so you and your fellow impulsive people are often happier within yourselves.

You’re efficient

You don’t waste time umming and ahhing, making painstakingly slow decisions. You make quick choices and are great at thinking on your feet. Now, that is a useful transferable skill in the working world!

You have the best memories

How many memorable stories start with “the time I carefully considered the pros and cons of x, y or z”? None. No matter how big or small - like the time you just rocked up to Kings Cross and bought a Eurostar ticket - it’s all about living in the moment.

You have no big regrets

As the idioms go, in the end, we will only regret the chances we didn’t take, as opposed to regretting choices we made. You will have no what ifs, just great memories or lessons learnt.

Failure doesn’t scare you

Being impulsive means there is little time for any self-doubt or negativity from yourself or others. It’s the way we should all live our lives – going forth with what we want to do, and not letting the fear of failure hold us back!
