Thoughts:

Flexibility.

My thoughts are around flexibility this week. I took 6 commercial airplane rides in the last month. Traveled to 3 different states. And a Caribbean island. I did all this while working and playing. It required lots of flexibility on my end to satisfy loved ones, covid rules & regulations, and customers, all at the same time. I believe the ability to be flexible is a superpower unlike any other, especially for the entrepreneurial types.
