Yin and yang. Agility and Rigidity.
Understand that you need both.
Rigidity is necessary when things are clear and decisions have been made.
Agility helps when the way forward is unclear.
If you applied agility to everything in your life you’d be a chaotic mess, and a fascinating spectacle!
Total rigidity in life is as rigor mortis.
Thus, you need to be agile when it is called for, and rigid when it is needed.
Choose well.
Adapt and thrive.
Oh, and don’t forget, the human race has survived so long not because of its ability to change, but its dogged determination not to change until absolutely necessary – then it changes fast.
