How our decisions during quarantine affects our future?

The November quarantine came to stay.Nobody knows when and how we will find our normal rhythms again, but we will find them.Our history has proven many times that all events, good or bad,positive or negative end ,and new cycle begins.The question arises in the fact: We suffered and we learned or we suffered but we continue as before without even wondering what we did wrong or what we did right? Because anyone who thinks that at the end of this period things will be the same or people will be the same is wrong.COVID-19 is a fact that has affected 100% of the population. It does not matter where you live or what your lifestyle is.The consequences are there and we will either think about a common, creative future or we will continue on the same way,that will not have a happy ending.When it all started in China, we did not think that your home, your country, the people you love and care about would be affected because we thought.This is a fact that should make us think and wonder and make sure that everything is a chain and is interconnected.We may not realize it directly, but indirectly the problem is here and it grows as we overlook it until the time comes when we will be before accomplished events.

 The first quarantine passed easily.It was the first time we faced something new.The weather was good and we could go out for a while in the fresh air and see relatives and friends even from a distance. Some saw it as an opportunity after a lot of work and stress to relax, even with a reduced salary.Others were trying to find solutions to their problems.Obviously, each person's reaction to this change was different. A reaction that comes from our needs, our wants and our future goals, which have either gone backwards or changed completely.

 After research and many answers through targeted questions, I realized that the majority of people during this period, prefer to spend their time watching series (an activity that I personally find very enjoyable ,if there is moderation and not to finish a season in a day.) And this to be done every day. We have all been through this situation, but there is also the aftermaths.Others, spend this time on Social media having discussions of COVID-19, watching videos on how to change our lives for the best without moving on. I noticed this when I saw the number of these videos and articles growing rapidly. I find most of them creative and inspired having something to give but also with a common element which is the will to change and understand the goal.But again, only with sight, unfortunately, we will not change our daily life, our life, the world. Action is needed and through the action you will have the results that will lead to the completion of the goal.

 This time, we must realize that our time is the really precious.Time is the one who will give us the supplies to face the difficulties. How we manage our time will be crucial for the after COVID-19 period in many areas of our lives. Obviously it is not easy to change things and habits at a time when stress and insecurity are among the primary emotions but if we look the positive side only gaining we will get out of all the losses and problems.Because always through a crisis there are winners.The question is: In what category do you want to be? To the one where you will continue to blame others, doing the same things every day without a specific purpose or to those who wake up with a goal and putting every day a little stone to achieve it?
