Morning Question:

What is the difference between impulsiveness and spontaneity?

Spontaneous is perhaps a more natural way of reacting... reacting genuinely from your core. Listening to your heart and going with it. Its connotations are, to my mind, more along the lines of free spirited.

Impulsive could be of less pure form , where the action is without consideration for the consequences and perhaps more self indulgent.

The two words would be interchanged if the perceived result of 'rash' behaviour is positive or negative.
