It was during The Great Plague of 1665-66 that Isaac Newton made the massive discoveries about the Gravitational Force and devised the early Calculus. That one year when he lived in complete seclusion is termed as Newton’s Annus Mirabilis or the “Year of Wonder.” Being lonely is therefore not altogether bad, in fact, it can be utilized to make the most of your time and awake the Newton within.
Uncertainty about the career has risen immensely during the last 4 months due to the unprecedented economic crisis caused by COVID-19. There’s uncertainty over the date of the SEBI Grade A exam, which was announced in March 2020. There is more uncertainty for many other exams whose notification is probably delayed due to Covid-19 situation. There’s the additional stress of missing classes, the fear of not being able to wrap up the syllabus. Planned schedules are coming to a naught as the crisis and the gloom grows.
In these trying times, it is even more important to stay focused and wade through the gloom to successfully reach the other side. The way Newton discovered about the theory of gravity when he was compelled to be at home. I am sharing some practical tips that will help you in focussing on your career and creating fortune out of this crisis.
How To Remain Positive Amid Lockdown
1. Being alone is a boon, not a bane: Sitting at home also means you are connected with people, there is so much to learn online. But be careful not to waste your time on online gaming or social media rather join serious study circles and communities or join online courses, make small achievable goals, give mock tests and stay connected with the world.
2. Changing with time is the only way to success: Humans are evolutionarily predisposed to resist change because of the risks associated with it. However, as Napoleon once said, “One must change one’s tactics every 10 years if one wishes to maintain one’s superiority.” The pace at which things change is only going to accelerate. Therefore, the way we learn is also changing from Gurukuls to schools and now online learning is making quality education ubiquitous. It is time for you to realize that ‘online’ learning can help you to make your career. Be a pioneer in adopting this change to change your career path.
3. Devise suitable work plans: Maintaining a schedule goes a long way in staying upright and fit. A work plan doesn’t necessarily need to concur with the long-accepted standards of “early to bed and early to rise”. Find that comfort zone of studying, map it out, and stick to it. There may be instances where you would fail to follow the plan arduously. Don’t get too harsh on yourself when that happens as it is only too natural, just talk to yourself, make adjustments, cover-up for the loss another day, but most importantly, remember to not make this a habit.
