Adaptability

You are likely to naturally put others at ease when the unexpected happens, reassuring them and reassessing the situation. Your calmness and ability to “roll with it” is a powerful quality in the midst of a crisis.

You live in the moment. You don’t see the future as a fixed destination. Instead, you see it as a place that you create out of the choices that you make right now. And so you discover your future one choice at a time. This doesn’t mean that you don’t have plans. You probably do. But this theme of Adaptability does enable you to respond willingly to the demands of the moment even if they pull you away from your plans.

Unlike some, you don’t resent sudden requests or unforeseen detours. You expect them. They are inevitable. Indeed, on some level you actually look forward to them. You are, at heart, a very flexible person who can stay productive when the demands of work are pulling you in many different directions at once.

Take Action

The genius of Adaptability talents lies in the way you respond to chaos: you can quickly change and respond in circumstances that would be frightening or intimidating to others.
