Embrace change and adaptability from "summary" of U Thrive by Dan Lerner,Alan Schlechter
Change is inevitable. It's a fact of life that we can't escape. Things are always shifting, evolving, transforming. And if we resist this change, if we fight against it tooth and nail, we're only going to make things harder on ourselves. We'll be swimming against the current, pushing against the tide, struggling to keep our heads above water. But if we can learn to embrace change, if we can open ourselves up to the possibilities that come with it, we'll find that we have a much easier time navigating through the ups and downs of life.
Adaptability is key when it comes to dealing with change. It's about being flexible, about being able to roll with the punches and adjust to whatever curveballs life throws our way. When we're adaptable, we're able to pivot when things don't go as planned, to recalibrate when our expectations aren't met. We're able to bend without breaking, to mold ourselves to fit the ever-shifting landscape of our lives. And in doing so, we're able to thrive in even the most challenging of circumstances.
But embracing change and adaptability isn't just about being reactive. It's also about being proactive. It's about actively seeking out opportunities for growth and transformation, about being willing to step outside of our comfort zones and try new things. When we embrace change, we open ourselves up to new experiences, new perspectives, new ways of being in the world. We give ourselves the chance to learn and grow, to evolve into the best versions of ourselves.
So the next time life throws you a curveball, instead of resisting, try embracing it. Instead of digging in your heels, try rolling with the punches. Be adaptable, be flexible, be open to the possibilities that change brings. And in doing so, you'll find that you're able to not just survive, but thrive in the face of even the most daunting challenges.
