MY REALIZATIONS FROM QUARANTINE LIFE

Hey guys what is up welcome back to my blog I’m so thankful that you guys took the time out of your day to read my blog post. Hope you all are safe from the COVID-19. So it’s been like maybe 2-3 months in quarantine I don’t even know now but thinking about it made me realize that there are many things quarantine has taught me.

I was a mess when quarantine first started no school meant no need for early mornings and I was destroying my sleep schedule sleeping at like 6 AM and waking up at 2-3 PM and them staying up the whole night. I did that for a week in which I couldn’t even write anything properly then I was like get your stuff together you’re wasting your time. I made up a strict schedule with a little flexibilities. This helped me a lot I never realized but a schedule actually helps out in making life more spontaneous. In short a schedule is damn important, fix your time and when you do that you’ll actually end up doing work faster and being more productive and saving time.

Next up is early mornings really do get the creative juices flowing. I started testing out different sleep schedules and found the perfect one for me is waking up at 4 AM. I know sounds really bad but I woke at 4 am to do some meditation then a bit of reading and then some writing. Believe me the fresh air of the morning has something in it that just gets you going. I’ve been able to type better and with my work being mostly done by 6-7 AM the rest of the day can be used to think of ideas. Point being try to wake up with or before the sun the energy is great and your creative juices get flowing.

Also since it was quarantine time my family decided to come back and it was maybe the first time in a couple of years that all 5 of us were together. My mom was excited to finally spend time with everyone but surprise surprise all of us were in the same room at the same time facing each other but on our phones. The scene looked pathetic I get it everyone was trying to reach out to other people or posting something or the other but dude we didn’t even say one word to each other until my mother put her foot down and confiscated our phones for the whole day. It was rough but we started talking and reminiscing and it was great finally felt like we had slowed down to just look back even if for a bit. First thing we take family for granted too often and second we are on our phones way too much.

Not that me being on my phone would be a problem because I broke my phone and it needs to be repaired which is not possible because COVID. I am bored out of my mind now today is May 3rd as I write this and lockdown was supposed to be lifted today in my country but it’s extended and now I’m stuck without a phone and it is bad because I can’t text or call anyone. I pretty much fixed it by using skype for the time being on my laptop but I want my phone back ASAP. When I look back I spent way too much time on my phone and that is why I never had time for other stuff and had to rush it. Now with no phone I do all my work with great productivity so life is not boring I’m just offline for a while.

This one may hit others a bit hard but hear me out for the first time in a long time I heard the chirping of birds outside my house the last time I heard that was when I was a little kid. The skies appear clearer, the air feels fresher, the nights are silent and for the time being it feels like Nature is taking control. Don’t get me wrong humanity is great we have come very far and I’m sure we will rise again but did you ever stop to think that the world appears better right now with everyone in their home and nature thriving in ways we never knew. I realized something Nature is pressing the reset button and we sure as hell will survive but this is just a fair reminder that we need to get ourselves in check and stop hurting nature because now we have another example about how nature hits back. I don’t want to end this on a dark note so one small thing more.

We all have enough time. The thing is that we need to slow down and make a schedule audit our time and stick to it. Everybody has 24 hours in a day and some people run multi-billion dollar companies in those 24 hours and a high schooler can’t even finish an assignment in those 24 hours. Think about it do we not have enough time or are we just not smart enough to audit our time properly. I for sure know that each and everyone knows the answer we just fail to accept it.

So that is it for this post guys hope you got some value from this.  Thank you guys for reading to the end hit me up on Instagram, Twitter and LinkedIn with your thoughts and if you have any ideas which I should write about. Stay safe from the COVID-19. Thank you again and I’ll see you all next week.
