**Adaptability**
Plans change.
Life comes at you fast.
We like to think success belongs to the people who can predict the future best. But our predictions are often wrong. Circumstances shift. New information arrives. Weather changes. People change. Life changes.
Our brains are prediction engines.
But the leaders of the future won't be the people who predict the best.
They'll be the people who adapt the best.
This weekend, the four of us had plans.
Then one by one, things changed. Circumstances evolved. The original plan dissolved.
So what did we do?
We adapted.
Instead of forcing what was no longer there, we followed what was.
That led us to a 4–5 mile hike through Soldier Hollow as we continue preparing for Ragnar, followed by a delightful dinner at Back 40.
Then home.
A nap.
A few games.
Some Soul Number readings.
Not what we originally planned.
But maybe better.
Adaptability isn't giving up on the day.
It's partnering with reality.
And sometimes reality has better ideas than we do.
