Success Through Flexibility- Are You An Oak Or A Pine?

I have a friend who wrote an excellent play about an oak tree and a pine. The oak thought it was so much stronger than the pine that it mocked it. The pine lived day in and day out with the mockery of the oak, until one day a strong storm blew through.

As the winds raced through the rustling leaves, blowing harder and faster the oak felt its limbs snapping. The Pine being tall and thin simply bent over each time the gusts gave thier force. By the end of the storm, the pine remained unharmed but the oak lay felled and dying.

When it comes to success this is so very relevant. How often have you started out to try your hand at real estate investing or starting a business and when the winds blew, you rigidly insisted on doing what you knew instead of leaning with the change and learning a new way to go? Change is the only constant in this world. If you can't adapt you'll be replaced. It is very important to your success that you take heed and learn that you need to be flexible enough to go with the situations.

All the best!
