WINNING WHILE QUARANTINING✊🏽

The first 2 weeks after I came home from school because of the lockdown order were not productive at all. All I did was eat, watch TV and sleep πŸ˜‚. Every blessed day πŸ˜‚.

 The sequence of the only three things I did in a day then

FYI I really eat that amount of foodπŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ no cap


It was until I read a short but wise statement written by a friend and got some advice from my mum that I started thinking differently. The statement is "the world paused for you to catch up with it and you paused with it?" It was then I started thinking of ways to improve myself this period, in any aspect at all, as long as I become better than I was before this quarantine.


So I started working out with a 'home workout app' and I started reading novels. When I added this to my routine, I realized I had and still have a lot of time to myself which I can use effectively and get good results over time. I extended the reading to my academics too. This doesn't mean that I don't chill and rest o. I do. Infact I've watched and completed up to 3 series this holiday, some regular movies and I play video games too. But I do all this in an order which makes my time to chill a reward for my reading and workout. Improve yourself and reward yourself for doing so! 


It's not like I don't feel lazy some days and just feel like laying on bed throughout o, I do (actually I have that lazy feeling a lot πŸ˜‚) but I think of the results I can get over time from the workout and reading and I let that be my motivation.


Anytime I remember I can get to look like this if I keep up my workout, the vibe comes back


I also get motivation from family and friends. So try your best to improve yourself this quarantine period, anyway you can. You can read and workout like me or create content on your social media, or anything at all that will produce results after this quarantine period. Chill too though, don't get yourself too stressed. You'll appreciate yourself in the end, trust me😊.

  16. This was such a great post! I feel like I've been quarantining for so long that I'm losing that motivation to improve myself (even though we all have the time!) But your post gave me that inspiration and boost that I needed to remind myself to take advantage of the time I have! And I'm proud of you for doing the same! Thank you for the wise words!
