Surviving 2020

How do we survive 2020?

For an ordinary human like me, that is the question that runs through my mind in each passing day of this year. Having coronavirus around us makes me anxious most of the time. But we as humans, we are born and created by God to survive. We are made to prosper and grow like plants and nature. 

I have listed five tips on how can we survive and grow this year even in this not-so-good situation.  

But before revealing those tips, I just want to share first how did I find myself writing a content here today. 

Just like every millennial nowadays, I myself can't deny that I became a Tiktok browser this pandemic. And luckily through browsing different Tiktok post, I found @paulivandg's post about how can one earn through this website. 

Literally goodinfo.net became a good news for me, since I am considered a person who really needs to earn money, nowadays. 

This pandemic cost me to have many debts to survive, you know. Because we all know that as humans, we consume, we need shelter and other necessary stuffs that would help us to live the way we need to. 

I also want to share that this is my first ever content here so please bare with me as I try to make this one remarkable and a good read. 

Allow me to introduce myself first before we go those five tips. I am Rae, a call center agent and a college student. I am also helping out my parents in our small trading business right in the front of our house. 

It's difficult to prosper in different aspects nowadays -  carrying all those responsibilities one can have right? That's I why I keep these 5 Tips in my mind to keep me in track everyday.

First, PRAY. I know not all of us have faith or religion but hear me out please. In my case, I've grown being a Catholic. Besides my parents, my Alma Mater Catholic school taught how essential praying is. And as I grew, I've been exposed in different religions like Christian - Born Again, Baptist and many more. 

I've also encountered people who have religion like INC and also people have doesn't have any or doesn't believe in God at all. 

Through those experiences, my perspective widen. Before, having one perspective on religion, now having a lot. 

But for me praying is not really who you believe in to, rather having yourself someone or something to look forward to.

Praying gives us hope and helps us to assess ourselves each passing day. It makes us count our blessings. And last but not the least, praying gives us drive to make our wishes and dreams come through! 

TIP Number 2: Create a Checkbox. 

This tip originally came from a very close friend of mine, my brother from a different mother, Johnrick. He advised me to create this list or checkbox wherein all of my daily agendas should be written. 

The logic is, this checkbox will keep you on track of all your to do's that day and will make you more goal-oriented as you check it one by one. 

Third TIP: Exercise. 

Yes, working out nowadays is very essential you know. Having this situation, work and studying at home, really paves the way on developing bad habits that will make our physical health suffer in the future. 

That's one of the many reasons why it is relevant. Exercising will help us increase our productivity because of it's great health benefits. Believe me, having our veins and muscles active will make us more knowledgeable and driven to do those things that are listed in your "Tip Number Two". 

Tip Number 4: Work hard, it pays off! 

Yes darling, working hard literally pays off, not only to your debts but also to your needs. Bonus part is having to afford your wants, because nowadays we should know our priorities. 

We should be wise on how we spend our money because we'll never know when we'll be needing it the most. 

We have to be secure, financially, in order for us to secure our future. If you have chance to invest, go for it! But remember that saving is also investing in the future. 

Last Tip: BREATHE and reward yourself.

Being in our current situation is really frustrating you know? Knowing that any day or any time, we could be back in ECQ again, and close ourselves to the world again, you know? It really make me anxious to be honest. 

Remember to BREATHE from to time. It is essential for people like us  to rest from time to time in order for us to move forward. 

Alright!! Thank you guys for having time the read my first entry here, I hope that somehow it helped you to have ways on how we can survive this year. Please stay tuned as I try to upload a Vlog for my next Good Info. 

I pray for your good health and God Bless you and your family!

Love, Rae.
