Inflexibility is one of the most damaging personality traits you can have. It
can cost you opportunities, impact friendships and, most importantly, cause
major problems in your relationships. Those with a non-flexible mindset can’t go
with the flow. They are rigid in how they feel things should be done and are
often unable to shift gears when things don’t go their way. Parents who find it
hard to be flexible are rewarded with much more frustration.

parenting. But flexibility comes when you can see a situation for what it is,
rather than what you want it to be, and accept those circumstances. It’s an
active choice that you must make, now allowing yourself to be carried away by
your emotions. So how do you catch yourself when you’re being a bit too rigid?
Here’s where to start.
