One of our early survival instincts had
to be the ability to change direction.
Think about it…
In our Hunter/Gatherer days, if a predator
jumped out onto our path we needed to quickly pivot and head in the opposite
direction!
And in our early agricultural societies, paying
attention to changing and shifting conditions and making appropriate changes
was crucial.
How did this natural reaction, this need
for flexibility, get altered?
Perhaps we can blame the emphasis on this
inflexibility on the Industrial Revolution and its inherent need for conformity
and repetition?
Or could it simply be the current
emphasis on 'sticking to it' and not 'giving up'?
DANCE WITH IT! EXPERIENTIAL APPS
An opportunity to experiment with some fun ideas…
WHAT DO YOU BELIEVE?
1) If I make a plan I stick to it no matter
what!
2) I resent having to change and I am going to
sit here and stew!
3) It's not my fault that the plan changed! I
shouldn't have to deal with it!
4) Now everything is ruined!
5) I will never make plans with those people
again!
Do you think these beliefs help or hinder
you?
