Aah, at the stroke of Midnight hour the Year will change to 2021. For me it’s been a year of huge learnings and recalibrating the compass of life!
First of all thanking my small audience for the support this year :)
Indimasala- Health, Fitness & Awakening.
· FB
· YouTube- 104 videos- 30 minutes to 50 minutes
· Podcast- Anchor, Spotify, Apple, Google, JioSavn, Gaana etc..- 67 episodes
I learnt:
1. Health is my biggest wealth- Covid hits people above 45 who have HTN, T2DM and Obesity max.
2. Savings is Capital- Having 6 months’ worth salary as balance is advisable.
3. Helping selflessly is the biggest happiness- Helped many families in lockdown, Support staff, Washer man, Car washer, watchman, Donates food and clothes
4. I am what I eat- Nutrition- Most of us are Nutritionally Illiterate
5. There is no age for learning- Digital push, Online transactions, YouTube classes, Podcast and Online hobby classes
6. Crisis situations brings opportunities- Many businesses and programs overnight moved to Online platforms and tools
7. Home is Heaven- Turned to Office, Classroom, Gym, Cinema...etc.. Studio :)
8. There is no Gift more valuable than Time- OTT platforms i have vs the time i have and the things i need to do? Spending time with someone close is the biggest investment.
9. Every Problem has a solution- Even games went crowd less and Online-
10. Superheroes Exists- HCPs, Police, Administration and Politicians
11. Together we can solve problems quickly-Collaboration, Support and humanity—Vaccines
12. God resides in us, when all religious places were closed- First time in History all religious places were locked.
13. Real information is most Important- Misinformation- Thali peetna etc...Discrimination against COVID workers to patients, to Muslims spreading Covid..
14. No work is small- Cleaners & municipality workers kept us alive by doing the duty when we were locked up.
15. It takes a drop to fill an ocean- Economy took big hit, some sectors worst hit....Hospitality, Tourism....small businesses.....But we will be back..
16. God resides in cleanliness- Bruce almighty- Jim carry and Morgan Freeman-Always cleaning. Now Hand wash, mask and sanitation is must...we know not to spit etc...Still we have a long way to go...
17. Self-control is the biggest strength- Restricting movement following guidelines, maintain Physical distance...etc...Fasting, eating healthy...
18. Crisis is a big leveler- Rich & poor- Prince Charles to PMs, Presidents. All got infected
19. Courage makes crisis look smaller- People in 90s too beat the Virus, HCPs continued to work despite the lack of clarity in the first few months..
20. Life Goes ON- People die, but people always die...Life goes one...here we are in a distant Bihar village...no Covid...No mask...clean fresh air, Fresh vegetable and Fresh everything......
➡️Love, Connection, Internal Peace, Happiness, Joy, Laughter and Learnings.⬅️...are some of the things we wish for you in 2️⃣0️⃣2️⃣1️⃣! Happy New Year.💐💐❄️❄️🪄🪄🎊🎊
Also thanking 2️⃣0️⃣2️⃣0️⃣for being an amazing teacher, which taught us “Simple joys of life we had learnt to take for granted and grunt were so incredible” :)
