In light of this learning, in the future, I will practice psychological flexibility more in my daily life.

 

For example, during group projects, I will attempt to be more flexible in my thinking in a sense that I will not just be fixated on my idea or my belief, but I will adjust my thinking accordingly to what suits the topic/subject more. This is also a form of psychological flexibility as it enhances my ability to think flexibly.

​

Another example of where I can practice psychological flexibility is in my co-curricular activities (CCA). In my CCA, as I am a committee member, we have to plan and execute events. Hence, be it during the trial event or the day of the actual event, things will not always go smoothly. In unexpected stressful situations, I would have to change certain things to suit the current circumstances in order for the event to run smoothly again. Hence, the ability to cope under stressful circumstances and adjust to new conditions is part of psychological flexibility. Therefore, my CCA provides opportunities for me to practice psychological flexibility.

 

There are many more outlets in my daily life for me to practice psychological flexibility, however, these two platforms, school and CCA, are more current and relevant as of now.
