Life is in your hands

 Do you struggle with motivation and energy?  How do you stay motivated in a time where you have to stay at home, not have more then 5 -10 friends or close contacts and practise social distansing? I find it harder and harder, in the beginning of this world wide pandemic I was all fired up in a way. I wanted to be part of the solution (I still do) but when there are so many who brakes the rules, have big parties and don't keep there distance I'm thinking "what's the point?" There has to be point ... doesen't it? I manage to keep my energy level pretty high at my day job, where me and two others are in charge of all protection gear for our whole commune. We have fun at work and with so many people being sick of the covid virus in nursing homes we have so much to do all the time.

Are you one of these people who takes on everything? Whenever a friend or family member needs something you jump on board and do what you can to help out? This is actually a good quality to have, but you need to know where to draw the line! Don’t jump on board if you’re helping out so your friend can avoid something that frighten him/her or makes them uncomfortable. Be a true friend and help them help themselves. Let them face this fear and do what makes them uncomfortable, there’s way more value in that then when you do things for them. Also this will be a relief for you and your friend in the future, now your friend can handle this task on his/her own and you don’t have to. Make a priority of your own time and help out in the best way for your future and your friends and family’s future. Helping others are important, but help them in a way that will help them for a lifetime!

Excuse me Unskyld Meg Jeg Beklager Lo siento Waan ka xumahay There’s a million ways to apologize and it’s always appreciated. But why is it so hard? Why do our hands shake and voice tremble when we have to say "I’m sorry". Why is it that we all want to hear it but no body wants to say it. Everyone can mess up and make an complete fool of themselves and the one thing that saves you is the apology! Did you lie? Did you make a terrible mistake? Did you raise your voice to someone? Did you make an assumption that was wrong? Apologize!! Say I’m sorry! I messed up!  Please forgive me!!
