Grit and flexibility are in tension with one another.
Being able to accept an approach is unproductive and find another is valuable, in moderation (in excess you flit from task to task without completing any).
Grit is the opposite; being unwilling to give up in the face of adversity is valuable in moderation, but in excess it prevents you from realising when your approach will never pay off.
