This is not about Coronavirus, this applies to all those who are not affected by the pandemic both from health’s perspective or financial perspective. Especially for the millennials who can survive the impact.
Also, from what I know, the recession is around the horizon. You might be impacted and trust me, this has happened in 2009. Those who took advantage of that are key part of the deciding team of what the market is going to be now. So sit back, we will get through this.
Getting to the point:
If you are working in an Enterprise, irrespective of who your online education service provider is, you get the advantage of getting those online courses that are available as part of the perks for free or cheaper.
Even if not, just pay for it. Don’t see what return you are going to get. Yes, I KNOW $$$ is important, especially during the time we are in right now.
Think about the times that you had went with your friends just to not disappoint them and ending up paying for the dinner that you wanted to pay a portion of your Guitar purchase, your favorite Jacket that always seemed expensive, even part of your car maintenance that you have been postponing for the “right time”. Good luck with that. Delaying your car repair can backbite you exactly when you are broke. They know when the “right” time is to breakdown. I can talk about my funny experience in a different story. So follow me for more! ;)
We are all quarantined, no matter where we are from. And honestly, I have been following the growth of this virus since early January. This is only getting worse. Politicians didn’t see this coming. Not that anyone wants this to happen, but we needed to be prepared for this. It is more apparent now we didn’t make a good choice when we voted unless we belong to S Korea or Singapore.
We can definitely spend a few hours a day in learning something new. A certification will keep you motivated by deadlines.
I am taking up this challenge in learning something new from tomorrow as a certification or a course. Even if it is YouTube, its fine.
See you all soon!
Stay home, keep everyone safe.
