The virus messed up a lot of our plans and got us spending more time home. However, if you look at an issue from another point of view, a crisis might become all of a sudden an opportunity.

Thankfully we're stuck with tools such as the internet, books, music, etc. Why not take advantage of the situation to learn new things and skills?

Whether it'd be art that you are into or always wanted to give a go... Reading... Home workout... Meditating or getting more flexible... A topic you wanted to learn more on...
You can share your goals and progress in this thread :myman:

I was thinking the exact same shyt. Too many folk gonna spend all their time watching movies and on social media when they got a chance here.

Read meaningful books. Get to work on that thing you've been wanting to write. Practice a skill. Pray. Write some emails to that friend you haven't talked to in a while who you know needs a life.

I'm gonna work on my blogging, fell way behind the last few months.

We had a team meeting via Zoom earlier. Work is gonna be real quiet at least for the next few months, so I'll rarely be out in the field.

Got time to study for my certs, read, meditate and ride my bike now that the weather is slowly getting warmer. fukk sitting around watching Netflix all day. Too old to be wasting time now.

You can play 2K with the sound off and have a Umar Johnson podcast going and get the knowledge and entertainment at the same time.

The Holy Bible. Right now if you are not reading the book of Matthew you are in the dark.
