Hey ,

what if I told you that COVID-19 is here to stay?

Maybe you know this already, but viruses don't always completely vanish from the face of the earth. (But I'm not a medical doctor, so don't take my word for it.)

Sure, we'll find a way to live with it -- and probably without masks in a couple years -- but COVID-19 won't completely disappear.

I mean, we are already living with it. People are going to sports stadiums for Christ's sake! Only travel is restricted, kind of. But that's a whole another topic.

So I'm not here to talk about the virus. I'm here to talk about the crisis and all the changes around the world it caused, because everyone is saying, "when things go back to normal, I'm gonna..." do this, do that, and blah blah blah.

But guess what, ? This IS normal!

There is always some crisis, some war, something bad and unexpected happening around the world. It's extremely rare that we don't have a crisis or a major conflict at any given time on planet Earth -- it's actually abnormal.

Even if there is no major global event that affects you, there is always personal stuff on a small scale that (even in a tiny way) changes your life -- whether in a good or in a bad way.

There is no perfect time to move, no perfect time to have kids, no perfect time to start a business -- there is always something 'bad' happening you can use as an excuse.

So if you always wait for the perfect conditions to do everything -- or for things to "go back to normal" -- you'll never do anything.

Because, remember, this is normal.

Takeaway: Don't wait for things to get back to normal. If you wanna do something, do it now.

I'll leave you with a quote from a Serbian basketball coach (who first said this decades ago, long before the 'awful' 2020):

"All this is normal."

Have a great day,

Filip
