How to use "Inflexible" in context?
When we think about "flexibility" we often think about the ability to make adjustments to our environment in order to improve our comfort or productivity. However, there is another type of flexibility that can be just as important in our lives- flexibility in regards to our attitudes and approach to situations.
One of the challenges that many of us face is that we become inflexible when we're faced with difficult or challenging situations. This can happen as a result of positive or negative events that have occurred in our past. If we're faced with a difficult challenge in the present, we may become immobilized by our fears or inertia.
