Adaptability
... is a combination of flexibility, your attitude and willingness to adapt, and versatility, your ability to adapt.
The effectively adaptable person meets the other person’s needs and his own by treating others as they would like to be treated.
Adaptability changes with context and most people think they are more adaptable than they actually are.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!
