Has the Pandemic Made You Think About Or Change your Job or Lifestyle For The Better ?

Turtle

Hello, 

As we are living through this surreal time in history, I'm curious to know has any of you made any major changes for the better in your lives ? 

Has the Pandemic made you re-evaluate things, your lifestyle, work-life-balance, daily routine/rut or career ? Have you eventually switched jobs, location or are currently in-between or have you re-invented yourself in some other way ? Perhaps you have had more time to re-assess what is actually more important in this very short time each of us have on this planet ? I am not expecting Hollywood Movie, happy-ending stories of how one eventually ' fixed ' themselves or the world, I'm just curious to know, has any of this moved you in any way for the better ?

If so, It would be very interesting and hopefully encouraging to hear those stories.

Thanks, T.

  • People like me - quiet, introverted or reclusive for whatever reason - seem to have thrived in the last year. The other replies so far echo that.

    But I've become quite fatalistic. I've learnt to be a lot less sentimental about friends and acquaintances; they come and go, no point in getting bogged down with it. I'm trying to become more comfortable with my own company, venturing out every so often to meet my socialising quota before retreating back to safety. Art is very important to me and my reason for being, so that is where the lion's share of my energy and focus goes. I have no interest in jumping back into the 9-to-5 rat race - totally joyless, pointless, energy sapping way to spend an existence if you ask me.
