THE PLAN!!!

I can’t let this virus stop me from being me..

There are so much stuff that are really uncertain…I should know this better for practicing a stoicism for almost three years now yet the coronavirus caught me off guard the past few weeks. I could have been too attached to a great 2019 and making new plans on top of my plans this year had me out of sync. I also can’t comprehend the idea that there is such chance that most of the people I know back home can die.

But this should not be my way of perceiving what is happening. I have to get back to my proper frame of thinking to become as effective as I can be during this crisis. So I should properly account my understanding to what is happening to myself. I have to settle some questions in my head…namely…

• How is my health at risk in this crisis?
• How can I be a problem during this crisis?
• Am I panicking or developing anxieties?
• How can I adapt to the uncertainty…?

Fuck this virus!!! I should go back learning stuff…I might tap into my doomsday prepping skills now…

What I should do is…

• Continue building great habits built on cognitive strenghtening
• Continue to make healh and mind an utmost priority…
• Also develop and invigorate the PLAN - a resilience plan..

What is this PLAN? for now this includes the following:

• Create a backyard garden.
• Make and test tools that can offset for possibility of dwindling supplies from US (Fishing gear, Y slingshot, hmmmm what more).
• Map immediate resource locations in the island.
• Learn new adaptive skills (this I need to figure out still…)

Hopefully this refocusing on managing the situation will add an additional layer on how I can keep myself occupied and not focus on the downsides of this chaos. I should build more on this PLAN as the days go by…
