Good morning, everyone. Welcome to the Increase Your Impact podcast, Justin Suitt here, episode 1,710. There's a cool video on social media right now with Adam Wainwright, pitcher for the St. Louis Cardinals, talking about the difference between routines and superstitions. And he essentially, he was saying that you don't want to do something so much to where you feel you have to do it in order to be successful.

It's important to be flexible.

It's important to know that circumstances might not be ideal for you.

And you might not be able to do everything that you need to do in order to be

successful in order to thrive in your situation. Yes, it's important to have routines. Yes,

it's important to be consistent. But there are sometimes where you don't have the time or the

resources to do what you usually do. Now, don't allow that to be, for you to think that that's a predictor

of how you're going to go, how you're going to do and perform. Ideally, you'd want to be able to

prepare yourself the best you can, but sometimes that's not the case. That doesn't mean you

can't be successful. Don't use your routines as a superstition.

That you have to do these things for good luck or you have to do those things in order to be

successful. That is not the case for elite performers. You need to be able to be adaptable.

You need to be able to be flexible. You need to be able to use what you have

right here, right now. And thrive in Vuca environments, volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous.

You know that you're on the right path when you can thrive in environments like that.

Have a great day.

And we'll do it again tomorrow.
