One does have to work on being open to change and willing to adapt when necessary. Also, its important to flexible in your approach to tasks and projects.

Adaptability is the fruition of an internal journey of self-awareness. We learn in the cognitive part of the brain and make choices in the affective part of the brain. We engage the world in which we filter our experience through our beliefs, which becomes the basis of our feelings and emotions. First we think, then we express feelings, which creates direction and destiny. So how does this relate to adaptability? Affirming the goodness of who you are, is a place of "being" and having a curiosity of learning to start, stop, change, is the act of "doing." Adaptability is the art of affirming self and having the enthusiasm to learn, to reflect and to adjust along the way!

Its important as part of developing a growth mindset one should embrace challenges as opportunities to learn and grow, and view failures as stepping stones to success rather than setbacks.

Having a growth mindset means being able to set aside pride and become the student. Learner mindset is key. There is always an opportunity to learn and grow. Progress is progressive. Constructive criticism from the right mentorship will foster personal growth. Work hard and be humble. Struggle now in order to reap benefits later.

Expanding your comfort zone involves gradually pushing your boundaries and embracing new experiences. This is something that can be done on a daily basis and, if practiced correctly, can yield great benefits. Start with easy steps, especially within your group. Reach out to help others and set small goals that challenge you a bit. For instance, if you are in a support role, try picking up incidents that are not conventional. Work on them, reach out to your seniors or other team members for help, and acknowledge their assistance. Progress gradually; make it something important but not very urgent, and you may notice the benefits."

Stepping outside one's comfort zone allows an individual to strengthen their mentality. Mindset is everything. If a person can overcome psychological warfare and internal battles, then they can overcome all kinds of adversity. Immersing oneself in uncomfortable situations helps build mental toughness.

If you adopt a grounding in self-care, everything else takes care of itself. This is another version of the axiom, live and let live. Self-care as your constant guide guarantees right choices tailored to your needs, even desires. Your mind is freed of distractions and engaged in the present moment, the sweet spot of life.

When it comes to seeking support and feedback, it is important to reach out to like minded individuals or those who are generous with knowledge. Bouncing ideas back and forth or collaborating with fellow colleagues helps improve performance. You will know you are in the right environment when your mentors are working alongside you to grow with you and they do not view you as competition.

Another thing to consider is to develop emotional intelligence. Its important to understand and manage your own emotions effectively, and develop empathy to understand others' perspectives and respond appropriately.

Managers must be literally trained in how to get the best out of 'Neurodivergent' workers. Good employers recognize that any worker has something to contribute and that the neurodivergent has at least as much to give if supported and directed towards their strengths. Some progress has been made by managers, but more awareness-building must happen. I am lucky - my manager gets neurodiversity. I informed my employers that I have ADHD upon accepting the offer (with some nervousness!) He has in-laws with the same condition. Sadly, it depends on the awareness and outlook of the manager in question and I know cases where the neurodivergent employee left or was forced to leave due to ignorance and lack of imagination on the part of the manager.
