Flexibility (2756 hits)

Proper preparation prevents poor performance, but we have to adjust to those things that are unexpected and try to handle them with the same expertise as the things that we have prepared for. Things rarely go the exact way we plan, but that doesn't mean that all hope is lost.

Planning is always good to have an outline or road map to your desired destination or goal, but we have be ready to face forks in the road and also avenues that have been closed during our planning or without our knowledge. The plan was never the thing we were striving to reach, so when our vehicle (plan) is not able to get us to our destination, we have to adjust to the situation we face.

We sometimes have to avoid using a part of a plan we have made, change certain parts of the plan to fit, create a new plan in the middle of a journey, or make decisions that need an immediate response.

Obstacles and things going wrong doesn't make goals unreachable, unthinkable, or impossible; it just means that we have to be more creative, flexible and acceptable to change. There might be several different ways to accomplish the things that we desire, so we should not give up.

If we stay committed to our goals we will reach them, although we might have to change directions. We have to stay open and flexible enough to use alternate means to see success. By all means, we can not lose focus.

Keep moving towards the vision.

The So-Called War on Drugs Is Oppressive And Should Be Ended - Robert N. Taylor
At the risk of dating myself, in 1972 I was a student at Columbia University in New York City earning a masters degree in Mass Communications. During one of my classes a professor invited a former drug addict from Harlem to address the students. During his presentation, the former addict said, “You can never stop people from using drugs, so you might as well go ahead and legalize.” Click here to continue reading.


A Psalm For My Ebony Majesties - Soul Of A Poet
A single dandelion from you I’d cherish Received from your calloused hand Over bouquets of tulips,
Gardens of calla lilies Or forests of roses From any other man The deposits of coal Plebian men have precipitated in my heart With charming agendas, wicked plots, And selfish lies Has been crushed Into a clear, flawless diamond By the single gleam of desire In your righteous eyes.

With You - Poetic Evolution
A love of true meaning That fills all cavernous pits Of longing and desire A love of real substance. That elevates us higher In a sphere beyond here A love of beautiful, incessant growth. That always takes me there I soar with phantom wings Through the illuminated glow. Of the night sky And you my beloved are the reason why. Click here to continue reading.

If you believe you can achieve...
Sometimes I have to remind myself of that statement.
But looking the events that took place on yesterday I know it to be possible now more than ever before.

Wonderful post... Thanks for sharing!
