Lessons learned from lockdown, journey ahead

Dear Editor,

Lockdown means lockout, for the first time in my life came across a word where you have to imprison yourself with your own hands. Only leave the house when necessary. Yes, corona epidemic in 2020 introduced whole world to many new words and changed way of life. First a 21-day lockdown was done. After that it was increasing according to situation. However, during the lockdown, I got a chance to know life very closely. I am sharing with you all the lessons lockdown taught us. Yes, probably for first time such an opportunity has come when you have to stock so much of food items that you don’t know anything about tomorrow. You had to stock-up on even smallest things. We often wonder who saw yesterday. That’s why often, without caring about tomorrow, they do not value money. But this lockdown has taught that has fun but also respect money. Always keep a contingency fund. Take it out only when absolutely necessary. It is a lesson for all age-groups that saving is also very important. Not only this, get healthcare insurance with time, so that you do not have to worry about money at the last moment. Before the lockdown, we could only give limited time to our family. Many people lived in other cities. He could not come home for several months or even a year. But during this time we understood the importance of our family and this time is definitely bad but definitely brought us closer to the family. At the same time, many times they like to live away from the family, but in bad times, first of all, home and family were remembered. You can get fit only by going to the gym. This is absolutely wrong. Everyone would have understood very well. You can keep yourself fit even by staying at home. Do Yoga, exercise daily.
Digitally Friendly- Yes, doing everything at home during lockdown. It seems that the whole world is in your hands. Doing all the work online whether it is business, job, studies or any other course, we are connected with technology. Have lived two lives in 2020, one before corona and another after corona. But there is such a difference between these two that our whole lifestyle has changed. Yes, earlier we were junk food lovers but now we like to cook at home. Means of earning- Pandemic has exposed the reality of life. Many people depend on only one job and earn. But this is wrong. In the changing lifestyle, keep another source of income along with your job. So that even if you lose your job, you can remain financially capable and take care of your family. The pandemic in 2020 has turned the pages of everyone’s life. Yes, whoever is going through this pandemic, there will always be two pages in their life. This lesson is a life lesson for today’s generation as well as for generations to come, so that they do not make any mistake.
Vijay Garg.
