The panic mode (IM 527)

The coronavirus has created a panic mode all around the world.

But is it necessary to panic?

The Walmart is out of toilet papers and most of the Walmart are closed. Walgreens is out of masks and sanitizers. Because of the panic mode, people are suffering more than ever.

People are more worried about the panic than the real virus itself. All of this crisis will go away, but we got to be more patient than ever. Isolate yourself if you are sick.

Make health your priority and stay safe. This will go away.

Why we complicate things? (IM 526)

This sounds crazy but it’s true that most of the time we complicate or we try to complicate our things.

We think our stuff or the problem to be tough but in reality it’s not.

Maybe we do this just because we want to show to others that we do cool things and figure out difficult problems.

Whatever the reason is, it’s true too often that we complicate our things for no real and worthy reason.

So judging the things: good or bad, easy or tough doesn’t sound worthy; it's just a different way to complicate the siuation.

Work from home (IM 525)

As the coronavirus spreads, fear is looming among people. WHO announced it as a global pandemic yesterday killing almost 4700 people worldwide with the cases now reaching 130,000. Various educational institute are shutdown and many are cancelling in-person classes and doing an online classes, which is one of the way to stop rapid spreading of this deadly virus.

Many companies have started "work from home" slogan and executed it to prevent spreading of this virus. Google sister company, Alphabet is recommending that all employees in North America, Europe, Africa and the Middle East work from home due to coronavirus. Microsoft Corp has told employees in the Puget Sound region in Washington state and the San Francisco Bay Area to work from home.

HP Inc. HPQ, -4.959% has offered similar guidance for its 55,000 worldwide employees who can work from home. Intel Corp. INTC, -6.262% has also given employees the option of working from home. More fortune 500 companies and other companies all around the world are shifting their way to work as coronavirus spreads.

Escapism (IM 524)

Yes, everybody wants to have a time for entertainment and refreshment.

We all can’t focus on same thing everyday and night. We need a time to escape from the humdrum.

And we desperately need it…

Some of us need music, some need games, work-outs, marathon races, travel, chats or short naps.

Whatever the escapism is, it is necessary to perform our work on high level.

Everybody has the escapism and it's okay to have on, but true purpose should not be forgotten.

Doing with the purpose of becoming (IM 523)

I came to believe that life is all about becoming rather than achieving. It's more about learning and growing than succeeding. The purpose of anything you do is to create a habit that serves as an ingredient to expand your potential.

Well, it's hard to accept the fact that growing never ends and you never reach your highest potential. It's hard to sallow that the result from all of your execution serve as a lesson rather than some material gains or losses.

The truth is that the meaningful life is in the other side of this. It is when you start believing that the purpose of your doings is to become ultimate version of yourself rather than attaining something. It's when you believe that every actions has only one result and that shows a way to reach towards a better self.

When the purpose of every action becomes becoming, then it aligns with the purpose of all living creatures, that is to evolve. Becoming means evolution, which is the only way forward, and which never ends. This is a true journey, and is the one and only one mission of every animate and inanimate species.

Doing with the purpose of becoming is always rewarding.

Covid-19 and the world (IM 522)

The death due to Corona virus (Covid-19) is elevating everyday, which has directly impacted the world economy. The stock market is in crisis as the fear grows. The death in America reached 26 as per 9th March.

Where is the world heading? How long will it take to discover the anti-virus? These are all uncertain question. Nothing is certain.

People have started to work from their home rather than going to office for 9-5 job.

The sad part is people who are working to help infected patient are suffering from it. One report suggests that 10% of the doctors in northern Italy are infected with coronavirus.  No matter what the exact figure, that is clearly a huge problem. If they are not safe, no body will be safe.

What is the substitute for handshake? (IM 521)

Today, handshake is seen as a threat more than a form of intimacy and a equality. As being a vector of disease transmission, handshakes is often regarded as unhealthy way of communication these days.

Of course, in future, there will be no more handshakes. There will be no more handshakes before starting a business meeting. There will be no more handshakes when you meet a friend after a long time. Also, judging a people's by the strength of their grip doesn't make sense anymore.

Won't this effect the social connection between friends and families?

What will be the substitute of handshake in the near future?

What it takes (IM 520)

The secret of the success lies in daily agenda. It depends on our daily respect, experience, daily empathy, discipline, momentum and our daily goals and vision. Our goal each day must be to be a little bit better, to continue to build our worth and ourselves.

Massive success doesn’t happen in a day or a moment; it takes strong determination, perseverance; it takes a lifetime. It takes patience, struggles and sufferings.

Blame, justification and complain (IM519)

All of these are very common to most of us.

They are like a pills that just alleviate the stress of failure nothing more nothing less.

We blame others when we screw up something. We complain others when something wrong happens and we try to justify and rationalize the situations of blaming and complaining.

What we focus on, strengthens...

Blame, Justification and complain all happens when we are doing wrong. So if we keep focusing on these craps, we keep attracting wrong things and become victims of our own decisions

What is next? (IM 518)

Early 21st century, we encountered Flu and in 2012 we encountered Ebola and now the Corona. All of these generated form the human activities on nature. It follows the most powerful law of universe that goes " You get what you give".

Human activities on nature gave us the deadly disease. When will it end? Until and unless every single individual doesn't understand this law human are more likely to suffer from their own activities.

SO what will be the next step to stop this kind of disease? We should be looking for preventive measures not the cure after having this disease. We should investigate the root cause so that we won't suffer from another one in the future.
