Rolling with the punches.

When one hears "rolling with the punches" one might think of many things. Some people may think it's talking about literally being punched. Others may think it's about going with the flow of life. What comes to my mind when I hear that phrase is the thought that no matter what comes my way, I will keep moving forward. This is very important in the workforce and in life in general as how you react to certain things infinitely determines the situation's outcome. It's easy to stay down and let the punches keep you there, but nothing great comes easy in life. When rolling with the punches in the workplace you need to be flexible like water. You see, water adapts to its surroundings and shapes itself in whatever it's placed in. Good employees need to be the same way in the workforce as their job may not always require what they signed up for. Because of this change tho, you allow for good things to come by going out of your way to roll with the punches.
