Kill the Productivity Mania : The New Normal Series

-
The current pandemic has sent most of us to stay at home. Other than the frontliners and essential workers, some of us are left with nothing to do while the others are swamped to finish tasks as they work from home. Prior to this situation, the Productivity Mania has always been the trend and hyped especially in Social Media –grabbing your cup of coffee, showing off how much emails you finished, flaunting your meeting places, traffic, and a few rants to highlight how busy you are. 

Yet today, the "new normal" has been testing out the character in each one of us. Industries, economies, people, trends, culture, habits, and many more are being reshaped by the current circumstance brought to us by COVID 19. 

So it's okay if you change some of the habits that used to work for you before. Productivity should not solely define the things you finish but also the impact in your life as well, especially mental health. 

In this new age that is marked by this pandemic, we all need to be open to the changes and learn to go with the flow. 

If you find yourself not being able to finish everything, as long as you meet the bare minimum, don't drown in frustration. You have done well today. 

Don't push yourself to much. You are awesome just by keeping yourself sane today. Stay Safe life warrior! Tomorrow is another day.

You don't deserve to worry

-
When was the last time you worried? What caused it? What happened after? On most cases, when you worry, it doesn't really change or improve the situation. You might have improved the situation but it was not due to our worry but of something else. D O  N O T  W O R R Y . It should not even be on your list of emotions to feel. Only those who don't have anything else to do with their life who does. The next time you worry, you are either wasting time or just evading your current truth. A C T  O N  T H E   S I T U A T I O N. Stop feeling the situation and act on it instead. Your worries will only provoke unnecessary anxiety. You deserve to be happy, so stop the worry.

As a popular saying goes, anything that is that is beyond its supposed consumption is bad for you. But "too much" only happens when the normal dose is determined. This is very common in medicine and leisure consumables such as alcohol. So what about happiness? Can it even be measured? HAPPINESS DOSAGE Happiness is usually described with the rush of dopamine and a mix of excitement, joy, and positive feelings happening within you. It is usually felt from things, situation, or people who make us feel better. To some this can be provided by vices or bad habits that spur a taste of dopamine rush or something similar. So what is an average dose of happiness? Just like how sweetness can only exists when bitterness is tasted every now and then, so does with happiness.

Be thankful always

We all go through a lot of misery in this life. One moment, we find ourselves wishing of an end of these challenges or more, this life but if you can look back to how you have been, you actually have done a great job living. You may find yourself in a lower disposition than where you wished or once was but if you look at it closely, you are at your better self, that's priceless and of a value beyond money or any measure. It becomes your asset that no one can steal but you can always use as leverage. I have personally undergone a medication for 8 years for a heart ailment during my Grade school and high school years. I thought of fighting for a worthless life with all the drugs and the ill feeling and the limitations on food and activities but here I am now, working hard to provide proper employment to those who don't have enough proof or documents but has the potential and the motivation to help and work hard. I once thought that undergoing such monthly treatment at the h...
