When the Going gets tough, the tough gets going! How we Receive, Process and Respond to the situation decides how we write our future!
The Testing Times
The world is facing a challenge. Many lives have been lost and many are suffering. Countries have been locked down and people are indoors to avoid the virus finding a place in their body.
The U Factor
In these times U play and important role. How U receive, process and respond to the given situation decides how the world would be shaped from here and how the world would look like in the future. If you are fragile, lost, depressed, negative and if anxiety is troubling you then you convert the situation into a problem because of the negative mindset. Now,you blow the negativities out of proportion and you fail to see the positives hidden under it. It is time,you channelize this positive energy in a more constructive manner. The mental virus infecting the mind is more dangerous than the biological virus in the body. The virus,in the body affects your immune system but, in the mind, it affects your thought, emotions and the basic spirit of life.The mental virus takes you into a negative spiral.
