During tough times it's easy to feel overwhelmed by negative thoughts and feelings.
Whenever you find yourself feeling down, it helps to spend a moment focussing on some positive things: Positive things in your life (count your blessings) and positive that are happening around you.
Shifting your attention to focus on positive thoughts, lifts your spirits and helps you to feel more positive :)
So while the outbreak of Covid-19 is without a doubt absolutely devastating in so many ways - here are a few quick points (off the top of our heads) of some positive things that we have noticed as a result of this global pandemic:
1. We have a greater appreciation for face-to-face human contact. As a result, we will make more effort to see close family and friends more often.
2. We will make more effort to spend less time interacting with screens and more time outside connecting with people and nature. (surfing!)
3. We understand the importance of taking better care of ourselves: Eating healthier / Exercising (surfing!) more!
4. We have a renewed appreciation for our doctors, teachers, essential service providers and healthcare workers. (Hopefully governments prioritise more support to these sectors in the future.)
5. More companies now see the benefits of allowing their employees to work from home. This means less traffic, less pollution and happier people.
6. Strengthening of communities - amazing how many heroes there are around us every day!
7. Major world cities known for their grey, smog filled skies are seeing blue sky for the first time in years!
8. Every wave we ride after lockdown will be appreciated so much more! :)
See what we talking about?
Now try to think of a few to add to your own list!
