When you’re working with a company that’s based in a single location, it’s easy to see the advantages of having a few more locations. For instance, if there are a lot of things you need to do, it’s easy to just pick one and do it all at once.
But if youre planning on switching companies, it’s not always as easy as picking one location and switching it to another. For instance, if youre trying to move a team to another city, you may need to work at the new location for a while before you can get a new team together. Or the same goes for something like moving a building.
This is where flexibility comes in. Sometimes the best method is to just pick a location for the task and do it in your sleep. I mean, how many times have you sat in your office on Friday and said, “Today, I’m going to paint my new house.” And then just as you’re about to go to sleep you hear some loud banging on the door? You know you have to do it now.
The most flexible people I know are the people who can get the job done in their sleep. Like, the rest of the time they are probably out partying or something. These are people who are so flexible that they can get the job done in their sleep. I mean, they can wake up in the middle of the night and do something, but if their team is at their desk they can get the job done in their sleep.
We actually talked about this a bit at the Hackers Conference. A lot of people who are able to be flexible are able to get really creative in the middle of the night. I’m not going to lie, I had one of these people come into my office and tell me that I could be the guy who designed a whole new game for a game I was developing.
Flexibility is an interesting skill to have. It’s actually quite hard, because it requires the ability to be able to be creative and move at the same time. It’s hard because it requires a lot of mental agility, and that’s exactly what’s needed to be able to plan.
The other skill that is needed to be flexible is the ability to be creative, and its true you have to be able to keep all your plans in place without needing to constantly adapt them.
Flexibility can be viewed as a combination of creativity and planning. It might sound simple but at the core it is really quite difficult to be flexible at both. But its true, its hard to be flexible because the whole point of being flexible is that you are flexible. You can be flexible in all directions at the same time. This is very difficult to do because its a very demanding skill.
It’s actually quite difficult to be flexible because you have to be able to keep a certain amount of information within your head at all times. You have to be able to remember all of your future plans, all of your past plans, and everything you’ve ever heard or seen.
For many people, being flexible is a very difficult skill to develop.
