In this video, we will explore What is Flexible Thinking.
When it comes to making progress towards things that you want to achieve you must be able to adapt to changing conditions and circumstances.

Flexible Thinking is the ability to shift thinking or attention in response to change in rules, or unexpected situations. Flexible thinking is also referred to as mental flexibility or cognitive flexibility.
It's an important skill in this era of rapid change to be sufficiently flexible and be able to adapt to new situations.
It’s quite common that we have to change the way we are doing things like analysing information or using different approaches when solving a problem.
But it’s certainly not an easy thing to do, because as humans we get used to doing things in the same way because it requires less effort.
If you know that dealing with emails takes you about 1 hour a day then you just accept it as it is without questioning it.
The problem is that if you don’t change anything then over time you will be spending more and more time on this activity and that will reduce time you can work on other things.
So the key is to shift your mindset and look at things from different perspectives. This would mean asking yourself a question - Why am I getting so many emails?
Is there a problem with internal processes in your team and everyone is asking you questions or is there missing information that can be added to your website so people don’t send you emails.
Of course, you can figure out how to reply quicker to your emails by having email templates, but it’s even better to stop getting them in the first place.
To improve flexible thinking it’s critical that you raise your self-awareness as that will enable you to see the bigger picture and you can practice it by reflecting on your daily activities.

I hope that you enjoyed this video and I was able to give you a quick summary of what Flexible Thinking is and why it’s important. _________________
