We live in very uncertain times right now. Most of the people in the world are on lockdown, with this pandemic around the world.
The feeling of uncertainty is starting to grow more and more in people's minds.
Life was uncertain before this.
We don't know what will happen the next day, next week, next month, we can guess it, predict it but is not certain and this unexpected lockdown makes us more aware of this uncertainty.
For you to get in front of this situation, you have to be proactive.
What does this mean?
It means that you have to think ahead and take action on what you decided.
You take the information you've got and start to do something about it.
Ok, I'm on lockdown, and I don't know for how much time, it can be one month, two months, six months, and start to think for yourself how you will pass these uncertain times.
What you will be going to do fiscally, financially, emotionally.
These are the 3 principal crises experimenting right now:
- Fisical crisis
- Emotional crisis
- Financial crisis
Fisical crisis:
Being in quarantine we have limited space to move, we can't go to the gym, we can't go biking or swimming, we have to stay at home.
This is what we know.
What you can do about it?
Well, you can reinvent yourself, adapt using the space and tools that you've got.
How?
There are a lot of teachers in different sports areas, who have already started doing online classes, just search for your type of sport and see what is available to you.
Or you can buy online courses of a particular sport, meditation, yoga.
Or look for free videos on youtube, on how you can use your body for weight.
Emotional crisis:
I think that we are in a situation where we have something to learn.
Learn to appreciate more the persons around you, instead of a screen.
We are social beings.
Some weeks ago we take that for granted, now that was taken away from us, we crave it.
We find all kinds of excuses to get out of the house to interact with others, even with the risk to get a ticket for it.
In Spain, the ticket for living your home without reason is from 300 to 600 €, and the police give more than 31.000 tickets (until 21. march).
We always want what we cannot have, and realize what we've got after we lose it.
Financial crisis:
In this area, most people will take a big hit. Why? Because they expect others to solve their financial problem.
Don't do what the majority are doing. Use this precious time to learn something new.

The best investment that you can make, is in yourself.
For example, I started last year my online business, and the best thing about it is that you can work from everywhere, even if you're on lockdown, and I can't see better times for people to learn and use these tools.
I can't say whether this will work for you or not, this will depend on you.
But at least you can stay informed and see if this is something that you'll like to do.
