How to be flexible in life

Flexibility in life

have you ever noticed how a fly tries to get out of a window?

if you stopped and tried to notice how the fly acts for one minute you will find the following. It will attempt to get out of the window thinking that the glass does not exist and so it will hit it. Unfortunately after the first hit the fly won't be flexible and will try to get out again out of the same place where it got hit before!!

The fly might remain inflexible for the next 10 minutes by insisting to solve the problem using the same way that didn't work while few inches away there may be a real opening where it can escape from!!

How to be flexible in life?

Seems like a dumb fly right?
well if you think so then don't hate me for telling you that you might be doing the exact thing without noticing.

Here are some examples that show you how we sometimes act without any flexibility in life:

  • Lack of flexibility in daily life: A girl was planning to hang out with her friends so she decided that she will wear the red top and the red shoes. The next morning she woke up and while putting on her clothes she didn't manage to find her left shoe so she kept searching for it for half an hour but she didn't find it.

    she then became really nervous and irritated because time was running out. 15 minutes later she found that time ran out and so she decided to stay at home feeling disappointed.

    The mistake the girl did was that she didn't think in a flexible way. Her goal was to hang out but they forget about it and focused on another unimportant goal which is finding a certain shoe. Had this girl been flexible she would have wore anything else just not to be late.

  • Lack of flexibility at work: you found a problem with your internet connection and you kept trying to connect many times until time ran out and you didn't complete your work. Had you been flexible you could have used a dial up connection or even went to any public place where you can access the internet
  • Lack of flexibility in you career: Some people refuse to make a career change although they cant perform well at their current one. Had those people been flexible they would have not forgotten that their goal was getting a high pay with disregard to the job
  • Lack of flexibility in sales: A sales man who tries to convince you to buy something by repeating the same point over and over lacks flexibility. If he had flexibility he would have realized that his goal is to sell and not to convince you with one of his arguments

Last year when 2knowmyself was only generating 600 USD/month i kept thinking of what i could do in order to generate bigger amounts of money, i didn't give up but i decided to be flexible and to sell E-products. Within months the website 2knowmyself started generating thousands of dollars/month. If i wasn't flexible enough i may have lost hope and i wouldn't have managed to have a successful website like 2knowmyself.

How to be flexible

From the previous examples i guess you have found that most of us act like flies to a certain extent !

If you want to be flexible in life then put in mind that if something didn't work then you have to change your approach and try a different method.

Flexibility is one of the very important skills that every goal oriented person should have, lack of flexibility in life may prevent you from succeeding and may even result in failure in achieving your life goals.
