Adaptation
Adaptation is the process of adapting the way of thinking, emotions and actions to changing conditions in order to maintain the best possible functioning.
Definition
Adaptation includes biological, psychological, and social ways of adapting to change. In practice, it means updating expectations, learning new strategies, using feedback and regulating the tension that occurs with uncertainty. Good adaptation is not passive submission to the situation, but a flexible choice of response while maintaining one's own boundaries and key values.
Practice and life
After changing your job, it is worth planning 30 days of conscious implementation: observing new rules, asking about priorities and correcting your own style of operation every week.
Common misconceptions
The most common mistake is confusing adaptation with giving up one's own boundaries. Another mistake is to expect immediate certainty instead of gradually getting used to a new situation and testing new behaviors.
