Adapt like Batman

Batman is super adaptive which could probably be considered as one of his super powers. This extreme adaptiveness serves as away to be victorious in every situation or/and escape a doomed fate. Batman can achieve these extraordinary feats by......
Batman....as a pirate.  Let this soak in.
1. Being extremely resourceful. If your stuck somewhere in a hopeless situation don't just give up. Look around you there's probably something that can help you. Unfortunatley it probably won't be easy to utilize but it'll be there. Never give up....something else that Batman is notorious for.
2. Remember what you're all about. There's a comic out there were Batman travels to a few different centuries and he's still kicking ass and foiling super villians. It's a great comic and an awesome example of how Batman's adaptive skills can come together. He knows he's Batman and what Batman does. You have to know who you are in extreme situations and you have to know what the true you would do.
3. Get help. Remember that comic where Batman goes through centuries in time? Well he wouldn't be alive to do that if he didn't have help. In extreme situations, even the Batman(who is known for I quote "working alone") needs help. So look for someone any one who could help you! They just might save your life.

Research like Batman

So you're Batman and you just got a lead on a major investigation and you need to know his/her's next move. You need information and the best way to get information for anything is to research.
Cool place to research...am I right?
1. Know your topic. Be specific. If your going after a mob it would be a waste of time to research each member of the mob being only a one person. It would be smart to zero in on the leader( or leaders) of this mob. You could also be doing a research article on food and zero in on chicken. It's the simple rule of quality over quantity.
2. Use reliable resources. Although many people criticize Wikipedia for not being reliable the truth is that it has administrators who check many of the articles everyday so that the articles STAY up to date. Now people may say that there aren't enough of them to monitor each article everyday but not many people have a real drive to change Wikipedia articles to be inaccurate. Most published work in books are extremely reliable(as it takes a lot of effort to publish a book) just make sure it's up to date(no longer than 5 maybe 10 years old.)
3. Keep a research journal. Write down EVERYTHING that you:
A. Haven't read, heard, or seen before.
B. Important facts, methods, etc.
C. Your thoughts and conclusions made on the topic.
Remember to keep it organized with bullet points, lists, etc. Keep this journal as a reference guide to whatever your planning on doing because without reference research really isn't worth anything.
