IQ Tests Can't Measure It, But 'Cognitive Flexibility' Is Key To Learning And Creativity(2)

“本质弹性”才是努力学习与创造力的这两项，素质不是（2）

Cognitive flexibility provides us with the ability to see that what we are doing is not leading to success and to make the appropriate changes to achieve it. If you normally take the same route to work, but there are now roadworks on your usual route, what do you do? Some people remain rigid and stick to the original plan, despite the delay. More flexible people adapt to the unexpected event and problem-solve to find a solution.

本质弹性视作我们看清我们做的事很难让我们取得成功，然后为了达成最大限度做出微调。如果你通常都丢下举例来说的路口去上督导，但是从前这条路口在改建工程，你都会怎么做？不少人都会遗留下继续慢慢地的原先，即使这都会导致他们耽误。越来越多灵活的人都会根据重大事件开展优化，找到解决问题的方法。

Cognitive flexibility may have affected how people coped with the pandemic lockdowns, which produced new challenges around work and schooling. Some of us found it easier than others to adapt our routines to do many activities from home. Such flexible people may also have changed these routines from time to time, trying to find better and more varied ways of going about their day. Others, however, struggled and ultimately became more rigid in their thinking. They stuck to the same routine activities, with little flexibility or change.

本质弹性不太可能还影响了人们如何应对非典封城，非典让工作与努力学习都导致了取而代之挑战。我们中的一些人没想到比其他人越来越容易优化日常，在家里也能展开越来越多的举办活动。这些灵活的人也都会常常改变日常，决心能找到越来越好、越来越多种不同的方式来渡过一天。而其他人呢，都在苦苦挣扎，最终把自己的思想似乎越来越陈腐，他们每日重复着举例来说的日常，几乎没有变通或改变。
