Personal Development During Quarantine
Now that we all aren't on such a restricted lockdown, and let's all pray COVID19 will soon be something of the past, I wanted to discuss the time we all had during the quarantine. Whether you took full advantage if you do not have kids or anyone to look after to sleep your days away and Netflix binge all night or to meditate, get creative in any aspect you like. Whatever you did during these long months, I hope it was beneficial.
I know for a lot of people this was a tough and anxiety-ridden time. At the beginning of March when all of this COVID talk was up in the air, Pablo and I were in the process of moving out. I had just started training for a new job but unfortunately, they decided to cancel due to the spread of the virus.
I was so nervous wondering how we were going to pull off this move, along with if we had the necessary finances to make such a move. Thank god my anxiety didn't get too much of the best of me because everything worked out! The lovely universe always blesses me and just shows me each time to have faith and not worry!
Fast forward, we moved into a beautiful apartment and decided to lock ourselves in for a while. It was perfect timing looking back because we had a beautiful place to ourselves and a week and a half after we moved in, that's when I found out I was pregnant! I mean talking about the timing right?! But it's all in God's timing and in my book, he's the one with the plan.
Enough about me though, let's dive right in!! Before COVID happened, were you already on the self-development path? When I refer to the term personal development, I mean anything that will get you closer to reaching your goals, becoming a better person on a mental, emotional, physical, spiritual, and financial level, disciplining yourself, etc.
Your definition of personal development can be different than mine in terms of how and what you do in order to accomplish your dreams but the direction you are heading is to better your life in any way. Did you listen to motivational compilation? Meditational music? Anything type of music or motivational group that will get you up from your desk, and on your way to smashing your goals!
If you weren't, and that's totally okay whatever pace you go is entirely up to you, but as long as you are bettering yourself, that's what matters the most. During quarantine, I spoke to a few people who said they have used this time to dive deeper into their spirituality whether it be meditating more or using this space to focus solely on themselves.
I think this time was the most beneficial because it allows us not to have many distractions such as work, social life and really allows us to utilize this time to work on ourselves. We've always listened to motivational compilation every day before work, but now we listen to it more frequently and, we had listened to a 10-day program of Napoleon Hills teachings. We would have never had the time to come across such juicy information if not staying up late, binge-watching videos on Youtube lol!
Ultimately it's on you when you decide to focus on yourself and your dreams, but let me tell you, hopefully, we will never have a pandemic that requires a lockdown again, so this time could have been utilized for your benefit. I can't make you do or see anything you're not ready to, but someday if you're not already on your path to self-development, I suggest you start! and remember as well folks, it's never too late to start!
