It's Our Anniversary: COVID-19 Quarantine

So when was your COVID anniversary? I can't believe that it's actually been one year here in Chicago that the city completely locked down. This was also the day that they found out that a black woman was the first victim of getting COVID and subsequently dying from COVID. My job heard rumors of the shutdown so they started preparing everyone for working from home. Literally, my last day working in the office was on March 12, 2020. I remember that firmly because I had always hated commuting and welcomed this refreshing change. What I will say is what a year it has been. Can you imagine thinking that it would take this long, especially because the former administration kept saying that this would blow over in a couple weeks. Here we are a year later, and we're still dealing with this pandemic. The vaccines are coming out now that could potentially save lives.  If the US had more cooperation with the medical and scientific community, this technology could have come several months ago. What was crazy though is that most of our international partners found this out months ago. That fact brings me to this point..... what would you do differently? I mean, this lockdown has cleared so much space and stripped us to our core.  Being quarantined has really given me some clear revelations as far as my goals and dreams. You need to have that creativity, you need to have that ingenuity, you need to find your niche and you need to find your tribe.  Someone out there is looking for what you have and you haven't put it out there yet. They're looking for you. They're wanting you, They're waiting for you. The list of possibilities is endless. How many people have pivoted from brick and mortar to online services. So there's really no limit to what you can do other than the limits that you put on yourself. Do you have limiting mindsets? Do you have someone who is spreading negativity on your dreams? Do you have the proper support system to carry your dreams into reality? Do you have someone who has a different viewpoint than you, who can add diversity to the ideas that you're making? Do you have a dream that you really willing to die for,? Or a dream that you're willing to live for? Are you living your best life now? Or could things be better? There are so many questions that you can answer. And if you're having trouble answering them, there are advocates and support services available. Ponder these things.  We all need to travel together on this thing called life.... this purple life. Please share your comments below.
