Changes are scary yet beautiful Probably the only thing that never changes is the fact that everything changes . Sometimes it take a few moments and at times years, but everything changes Of late though, we have been pushed into a situation that was too abrupt, too alien and too uncomfortable covid19 has changed so many things in our lives. I remember how scary the first few week were. Being a #freelancer, I was immediately out of work... and as a #traveller and a gypsy soul, the #pandemic snatched away something that was very dear to me. Even till date, I sorely miss #travel and dream about winding roads and snow capped mountains almost every night. But.... it is what it is and we got to adapt. In my humble opinion, there are 3 simple ways to do that 1. Learn and empathize Forget what "has been" and prepare for the new, access your strengths, see what can you really carve a niche in... where do you really shine, even if it is .... shining shoes. When you empathize with people, you learn more, faster and adapt beautifully. You also learn how to make your skill, knowledge and experience relevant and useful. 2. Keep communicating I cant stress enough on this aspect. It is becoming so easy to lose grasp of reality and become lost in lonely depressive thoughts. Keep those friends around, sympathize, listen to them and genuinely try to be there for them and appreciate it when they return the favour. Human connections and constructs are what keeps us grounded and humane... and sane. 3. Celebrate yourself Know yourself, look within and recognize how awesome you are. Learn to love yourself, enjoy your aloneness and know that everything changes. Build your power that will fight all self doubts, lurking irrational fears and anxiety due do this situation we are in. Have courage and trust that balance will be soon restored. Stay positive and Adapt . #staypositive #love
