Mission Possible - An Incredible Career in 52 weeks (Week 3)

Mission 3  Learn to be Flexible

Your third mission is this: You need to learn to be more flexible.  Flexibility is the key to dealing with just about everything.   If there is one thing I can guarantee you,  it is that your life and career will not go the way you expect it to. We may not be responsible for everything that happens to us,  however,  we are responsible for the way that we react.  You’ve got to be flexible because one thing is for sure, things will change.  There will challenges,  roadblocks and potholes.  Some of the greatest experiences of my life have come because of challenges that I originally thought of as roadblocks.  I have often been led down a better path than the one I originally set out on.
For the most part,  successful people are those who keep on working toward the goal despite any roadblocks,  stay alert for unexpected opportunities and make the best of whatever happens along the way. 
 “The willow which bends to the tempest often escapes better than the oak which resists it. “
Walter Scott
