How do I deal with Life’s Inflection Points?

What is an inflection point?
In simple terms I can understand, an inflection point is a moment of decisive change.

Inflection points are decisive moments that shape our lives, often recognized only in hindsight. They can stem from choice, chance, or circumstance. Effective responses require preparation, situational awareness, calmness, and a workable process. By being prepared and reflective, we can influence our paths positively during these critical changes.
