Time is in Abundance; Make an Effort

Make Effort
Make Effort
  • Make an effort to learn something new or upskill ourselves during COVID19
  • With so many free courses, effort from the giver is huge, we as gainers also should Make an effort
  • Learning is now the key to success
  • Form a new habit for us, that would be the new normal

During these Covid times, all of us are locked in our houses, having one commodity with us in abundance – TIME. I do not think, we all did have any such wonderful opportunity of utilizing our time, at our will, anytime in the past. We all have always been in routines to follow and roles to play in our life, where there has been a huge influence on the surrounding environment and people.

Seldom did we have such liberty to spend our time, with our choice. This opportunity needs to be utilized in the right way so that we ‘make an effort’ to learn something new or upskill ourselves with some new traits and qualities.

The digital revolution across the globe has enabled everyone to learn anything from anyone. The majority of institutes and people are offering free courses over webinars and other platforms, to engage the people. The effort from the giver is huge. It is important that we as gainers also should ‘make an effort’.

It may call for going that extra mile, which we ought to do it. It is for a greater good, towards our present and our future. The days to come are going to define a new rule to our way of living. As they say, it is going to be a new normal, which had never been. The economy would emerge to be one which is neither based on past nor any theory.

The modern post-Covid economy would be written in books as of a unique era. Hence, it is quite obvious that following the same old routine or scale of effort, would not let us reap the benefits the same as the ones during pre-Covid times. Each one of us would have to learn the new game to be able to score a goal or hit a six, as the game may be.

Embracing the available resource with open arms and immersing ourselves in learning is now the key to success. There have been instances when people have undertaken a task the first time in their life or the first time in a decade or two. The situation is compelling us to be brave and mindful so as to demonstrate an open mind for undertaking such tasks.

There are also instances where we are giving to the community. There are people who are offering to offer resources, teach, mentor, coach others based on their capability, skill, and intellect. The philosophy of giving is seeing a dramatic rise, owing to the crisis, and this is emanating a collective good in the world. Nature around us is happy that our species have started respecting it and thereby cease the process of harming that was continually taking place for many years. This would enable a better ecological balance that is expected to bring longevity and happiness to mankind.

Let us all respect each other and the current situation, and ‘make an effort’ to utilize the available time to learn something and give something. The balance accomplished as a result of this effort will be a long term investment. It could enable form a new habit for us, that would be the new normal.
