A LOT CAN STILL BE ACHIEVED IN 2020 | DON'T WRITE THE YEAR OFF YET
I have heard a lot of people wishing that 2020 should end already. Some are even of the opinion that 2020 should not count as part of their years due to the Coronavirus that have made the year look like a waste. About three months and still counting in 2020 the world is on total lockdown and it is not business as usual. Though it is getting better in some countries where the cases have reduced to some extent. The new year resolutions, goals and plans we have for 2020 seems unachievable at a time like this due to these unforseen pandemic.
The pandemic has affected all aspects of life, economy which is the nucleus of survival in the world is the worst hit and a lot of countries are probably going to battle with recession. A lot of people are losing their jobs because businesses haven't been making profits and they cannot afford to pay their worker's salaries.
So, what next?
We should not lose hope and feel the year have ended. The sun that is shining outside is still capable of getting our clothes dry. As humans we have the ability to adapt to situations and make things work. The ability to change our behavior is innate. We can still work towards our set goals and create new possibilities. No wonder a lot of positive minded people were not idle throughout the lockdown. They choose to flow with the development by working from home. Meetings and seminar are now virtual and online. That is the extent to which humans can adapt to situations.
To be successful in life we should always trigger our ability to be flexible and adapt to present situations. As the year progresses you have to redefine your goals and work towards it. Set a plan for what you wish to accomplish before the end of 2020. When you have a target, it is easy to work towards it and achieve it. This technique is useful in the present situation of the world. You have the ability to decide on the result you want to achieve irrespective of everything that is happening around you.
It is important to always put into consideration that all the goals you have set is realistic. Set deadlines that are not too difficult to achieve. We have different potentials and how we can work under pressure. Some of us prefer short deadlines, while some prefer to take their time. Choose a suitable approach that works for you and don't be unrealistic.
Note that when you map out your plans it should be broken down into bits and not excessively long term goals. You may end up ditching your plans when you have a long deadline because a lot of things would conflict with it. It is advisable to have short term goals for the year that could probably be achieved in weeks, months rather than setting a goal for the whole year at once.
