Persistence only takes you so far. Then you need to try a different approach. - Jonathan Lockwood Huie Sometimes success requires persistence and hard work. Sometimes an ingenious new approach is needed. Or it may be time for a whole new beginning. Think, and choose wisely whether to try harder or to try something new. The very nature of the world is constant change. You set a goal and create a plan to achieve it; then the assumptions on which you based your plan change - they always do. The challenge is to retain your goals while adapting your tactics. Relax and stay flexible in order to reach your goals and maintain your happiness. The phrase "tilting at windmills" (from the fictional character Don Quixote - shown in today's picture) epitomizes the hopelessness of a determined but inflexible approach. Far better to change your tactics than to fail - however nobly. Stay committed to your decisions, but stay flexible in your approach. - Tony Robbins Strategy without tactics is the slowest route to victory. Tactics without strategy is the noise before defeat. - Sun Tzu Intelligence is the ability to adapt to change. - Stephen Hawking Life is not always as it seems. What you have wished for is not always best. What you have feared may become a blessing. - Jonathan Lockwood Huie Change always comes bearing gifts. - Price Pritchett Zig as Life Zigs and Zag as Life Zags. Stay Adaptable, Stay Joyful - Jonathan Lockwood Huie Change of any sort requires courage. - Mary Anne Radmacher Today's affirmation: I choose to adapt to the circumstances in which I find myself. I choose to be flexible in my dealings with those around me. I understand that my way is not the only way - that inner peace comes from respecting the ways of others, and that, if I am open, I may gain great insights and happiness from the ideas and traditions of others.
