Flexibility


My thinking has been too black and white lately. I’ll lock myself into a thought pattern, perhaps from previous times, and have difficulty in veering from that course. Sometimes that thought pattern hasn’t been the best way to go.

Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) encourages flexibility in interactions. If one way of being isn’t working, change it. If I have always done something in a certain way, then try doing it differently. Perhaps there is a better way.

Situations won't always pan out the way we expect. Accepting this, rather than trying to change it to match our model of the world, is the easier way to go.

Being flexible allows us to go with the flow in situations.  Trying different approaches could give us an equal or better result. Adding shades of grey and even colour lightens and enriches our mind.
