Jobs in Chinese Covid 19 scenario

The world over people are losing or fearing loss of jobs. Impact of a down turn can be brutal and the first signs of recession are job cuts.

This brings me to one important point. We need to step back and look back at our lives. See how the world has shaped us across the world. We don't have skills to be able to earn our livelihood independently and when put to test in hard circumstances we crumble because we don't know how to survive in absence of jobs. All our education and our upbringing has been riddled with faults and here are most of us, always fearing a loss of job scenario. Even in this scenario the only step which the government is able to suggest is giving loans _ to anyone who wishes to take that and start some type of economic activity. On one side people have been put under a mountain of debt and on the other side these same people are incapable of fending for themselves. 

Shape up guys. You have enough skills to put to use. Try something on your own. Be independent and self sufficient in your mind. Clear off your loans at the first opportunity. Clear the web in your mind. Start seeing things the way they are. Don't worry about  a gap in your CV.  If you don't have a gap in your CV, you have never been out of your comfort zone. We are born to create an amazing world, not to get entangled in our own version of slavery. 

Silence is golden, especially during close of business hours!

There has been a realization lately after having watched the behavior of self and of colleagues during the day.

We tend to be more cautious and professional in response during the start of business hours. As the day progresses, we slowly and gradually start letting our guard down. At the close of business hours or at the time when we tend to sit late, we are more prone to say things which we otherwise won't be caught saying. Silence at this time is truly golden. 

My mantra for well being!

I believe that the best bet for a bright future and a long lasting well being is to choose quality over cost. Every transaction we make, every decision we take is a choice. It implies that we choose what we wan't to be. Whatever be our current situation, is what we have brought upon us. 

To live the best we can should be our ultimate goal. For this, let's start choosing wisely. Enough have we given preference to cost over everything else. We can't even imagine how much has this cost our well being. Let's mould our thought process to look for quality in everything before we start factoring in the cost. With this, experience how we start looking at everything differently, how our choices become better and how our life quality, satisfaction and peace of mind improves.
