We humans, have this innate sense of having an eye out there for what is good, bad, ugly and dangerous. We have our computation mechanism running in our prediction machine called “brain”, almost continuously, that is trying to keep us afloat on this earth plane and keep us from extinction. And just because we were able to adapt to most of the existential elements and create solutions to take care of our consistent survival needs, we were able to see this new age of the 21st century, the digital century.
Getting on with our survival instincts and adapting to the nature has been primitive to our humanity and has been pivotal to our evolution. Human adaptability is what led us to being able to take our survival process to a point of creativity where we actually started to create our world just the way we thought it would be best for us to move one step further and one thing less at a time, to adapt. An on going process of us realizing the number of things we need to adapt to, time to time, has lead us to this phenomenal journey of leaning in to adaptation of them and creating solutions, that will keep us from adapting to them again & again. Adaptability is what helped get through that survival process. It is what helps us anytime we are in a survival mode. Survival mode is almost inevitable every single time one enters any new system and adaptability becomes the master key there to be able to unlock one’s fullest potential over a period of time.
Taking a closer look shows us, that we are almost at the verge of extremely adaptive technologies that have the capability to keep us going with our needs, with much lesser effort and intervention. And that is also showing a much higher growth rate in the technological advancements and also the improvement in our day to day lives. Simply put, adaptability is all about the learning curve. The phase during which you just have to subject yourself to adapting as well as possible and learn as much as you can & simply wait for the right time to enter the creative mode. The deeper you’ve learned to adapt, the higher your creative potential raises to. And that is essentially where our human civilization is getting close to with the the emergence of the technologies we are immersed into today.
The concept of “Adaptive-Creative Approach” is about getting in and staying in the adaptive mode. It’s about acknowledging & accepting our own ignorance. It’s an ego killing activity where no room is left to assuming knowledge. Simply staying in the zone, grabbing as much as information and internalizing that content for a greater understanding is the way of it. One must always begin a new venture with an adaptive mindset and give ones self enough time to actually get into the zone and learn the intricacies in detail. And most importantly, never worry about the imperfections and the disorder that one got to get through.
A lot of times, we in general get those instinctive rushes to go all in and display all we got in whatsoever form when it’s absolutely unnecessary and the seemingly opportune moment is actually immature. Adaptability is about building that level of internal control that keeps us from jumping the gun and getting into action mode when the time is not right and it is actually the time for more preparation. Also one should not initiate something that one is not drawn to and energized by the pursuit, because that will lead to uncontrolled behavior and baseless action.
Another pivotal aspect of this is to never give over importance to immediate instantaneous outcomes of any situation and look one step further & build patience to actually realize the greater plan. Adaptability is just not about breeding inaction or over preparation. It is all about building a level of awareness while taking those initial steps in any kind of venture, that one is in an immature state, and be mindful of any kind of acting out of proportion or giving in to emotions.
Adaptability is all about ones ability to simplify complex process structures and kind of bringing them into a synergy laying the foundation to scale from there on. Adaptability is all about ones pursuit of knowledge in the process of becoming aware of something that was in the dark. It’s a nature of curiosity of being able to point all the problem areas and that can then be worked upon to solve and scale. It is basically the courage to ignite the inner fire to fight the fear of getting into something new in order to leap frog into immense creativity.
Accepting that, change is the only constant thing is a virtue of it own. Welcoming that uncertainty, expecting the unexpected and enjoying it through takes a character. The character of adaptability makes handling uncertainty thoughtfully & rationally without giving in to the emotions. Such a personality that embraces ephemeral nature of times raises above the oceanic power of circumstances and acts objectively, thus staying on-course with one’s objectives or longer term targets. This level of stability is achieved with the nature of adaptability, then unleashes the innate immense potential of creativity that then takes a shape of its own.
It’s actually wise to try not to change the world or try not to change the system. An be in absolute peace and synergy with all the imperfections and happenings around. Adaptability is about wisdom of realizing that in order to change a system one first needs to understand that system to it’s every detail and in it’s entirety . That level of understanding can only come by becoming part of that system and blending in to it. Adaptability is an attribute of recognizing the essence of humble beginnings and initial hustle. Such is the hustle that takes place while trying to blending in to a system. No great entrepreneur or no great company out there could escape the initial cycle of hustle while trying to understand the system they are getting in to. Only after gaining a certain level of maturity in the market they entered, could they actually make an impact and change it for good. Such is the power of adaptability.
If one is in the zone of all or few of the above areas mentioned, then one is actually taking those small steps on the way to realizing something big. When one becomes aware to be taking those steps and then it becomes super important to let them be small but also let them be steady. Whatever the day is like, just keep those steps consistent. It’s all about staying the course and playing the course. Because consistency reaps rewards over a period of time. Realizing that those are just small & steady linear steps that will one day leap in to an exponential growth curve is important.
Towards the end, one thing I don’t want to miss mentioning is, adaptability is about tolerance. It’s about not loosing it out at the slightest inconvenience and miniature annoyances. It’s about maintaining your internal firmness, even while being in uncomfortable positions. It’s about being OK about things around that are not fitting into your mental framework. This adaptable frame of mind then turns itself into the foundation for a creative space. It becomes the breeding ground for innovation, for explosive ideas and for exponential growth.
Last but not least, in order to create an experience of summiting a mountain, one must train and learn to adapt to a mountain first. And that exactly is “The Adaptive-Creative Approach”.
