"Creative," "flexible," "imaginative"--these three words are almost interchangeable.

If you are creative, you can think of alternative ways to work around problems, ways that align with your own skills and reflect your values.

If you are flexible, you are able and willing to change and modify plans; you adjust to new circumstances and needs.

If you are imaginative, you envision what is not and what can be--you see in your mind what you haven't yet seen in the material world. All three words refer to your willingness to experiment with new approaches and fresh solutions. When you have these qualities, you will bend and not break when challenges arise.

that which is rigid will snap and break.
That which is flexible will bend.
When the wind dies down and calm returns,
the flexible will rise again.</center>
