We all are aware of Covid19 crisis and lockdown which has been announced on 25th March 2020 by our honourable’ Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi. We all were waiting for Covid19 crisis and lockdown to end but unfortunately, it continued for so long and now we can just stay at our home and pray for it to end soon. As the Covid-19 crisis continues, many of us find ourselves with more free time than usual.

COVID-19 crisis and lockdown have taught me many things. Apart from confining myself to my home to stay safe and healthy, this virus has played a key role in teaching me how to utilize most of the resources I have and many more things.

Remember that life’s greatest lessons are usually learnt at the worst time and from the worst mistakes. So never stop learning.

This lockdown has been a learning phase for everyone, I am sure. I have learnt. This time has actually made me redefine my life’s goals and passion. It has made me realise that there are many far better things which are beyond temporary achievements.

Happiness is the key to success

The first thing that I have learnt is that Nothing is impossible. I believe that all over the world, people are doing what was termed impossible. Even the word ‘impossible’ says ‘I’m possible.’

Next thing which I have learnt is Work-Life balance is possible. We can balance work and life simultaneously if we really want to. Work from home is possible.

National Differences really matter. I realised that America is not the most powerful country. And Europeans are not as much literate as they show. COVID-19 crisis has created a cold war kind of situation between the US and China. India is siding with the US. China has become the most powerful market controller in Asia.

We can never win over the environment. If we do bad we will receive worst. We can control pollution if we really want to do so by reducing the use of vehicles to travel and walk if we want to visit nearby places, by reusing things, by not wasting any sort of items and much more.

We need less stuff than we think that’s what made me learn to live with less. Learnt how to organise, how to handle small emergencies, how to utilise resources what I have.

Education and Exams are overrated. Learnt to use Internet religiously without wasting it just for social media presence by attending online classes, meetings, calls, giving exams and doing courses.

We do have enough time but we waste it in giving excuses or delay our work anyways.

Being a foodie I have learnt is that if we try hard We can live without fast food.

Showing gratitude matters(gratitude towards all the labourers, doctors, police and many more who work really very hard for all the people and their family in any way they can).

The most important lesson learnt from this lockdown is Being with our family is the real key to happiness, as it will somehow reduce stress. Family is the only one who will be there for us no matter what. Friendships and relationships can fade away with time but our family will support us always.

We are stronger when we act together. This is the good reminder and time to cherish each moment we had with our loved ones. Being stuck indoors can help us shift perspectives, get creative with what is available and welcome technology.
