Covid 19 is spreading and countries are putting restrictions to movements for Nation, States, Cities, Suburbs and/or Neighborhoods since the 2nd week of March 2020 as a measure of controlling the outbreak.
Why is it an Opportunity ?
Even though it's been seen as a unproductive move from the perspective of the working mind, I would say let's look at the BRIGHT SIDE of this.
- It gives more time for you to be with the Loved Ones
- It's making sure that you are not called for outings for evening drinks, late night parties, sports events and etc
So that you any enough and more time which you can utilize out of the 24 hours of the day that you have.
Here is my Suggestions
- Wake up LITTLE EARLY - Because it allows you some tremendous focus time until your spouse or kids get up. In my case I now wake up at 4 AM, which I'm feeling energetic and feeling lot better than wake up at 7 AM
- Walk around the House, go to the roof top (if available) BREATH some fresh air - Because, you know that it's at least little better unpolluted than other days. I would like to go out and walk or run for awhile but I keep my temptation until current severe outbreak controls.
- Listen to some MUSIC & TALKS - Try to explore little something which is not directly related to your work but passion. I was listening to Beyoncé & this in today's morning.
- Work for the FUTURE - Attend to something IMPORTANT, It may be that you have a certification that you want to obtain, it may be related to the start-up that you were dreaming of starting, it may be something that you have promised to your wife or kids. I'm exploring how to establish my professional brand and increase my ranking on Social Selling Index
Be Proactive, Make this an Opportunity to be more Productive
Let's see the Silver Line in Dark Cloud.
The opportunity that comes with the Quarantine Curfew, think little beyond where you are and improve your self.
