In COVID-19 everyone needs motivation

[aiguy]

I think this is every worst situation for all, especially those who are suffering from the pandemic, so we have one option that is to find a way to turn it into positive.
 Many died as well, lost our jobs, our businesses and everything, so we really couldn't say it's a blessing. But in this condition, we should just look forward and think about of next-generation future. otherwise, our upcoming generation will also suffer as now we are facing

If this is in relation to the pandemic - I don't thin k it's come off that bad we needed a downturn anyway as its a weird result of capitalism (a crash every 4-20 years).

In terms of the world, yes we do need to find ways to make everywhere a bit better (especially since it shouldn't be too hard in developed countries). I think there's a bigger problem that was mentioned earlier of people wanting short term change without any effort required - which benefits only a very few people and not even an entire population.

It is clear that everyone need motivation to keep going and growing. The pandemic has brought down many economic in almost all countries. Death, job loss, destroyed businesses and so on are the effect of this pandemic. Without motivation I think people will fall deeper and find it difficult to get up. But so far we have seen that pandemics can almost be controlled by various method and prevention. Health protocol, government regulation, and individual self-awareness have had a positive impact. I am sure that everything will be fine and this pandemic will end soon.

I am sure that not everyone is affected by this pandemic and they can still have normal activities, work and earn money. However, those affected by the pandemic also do not have to stay silent forever and this is where they need motivation to rise.

[The Sceptical Chymist]

Maybe I'm not getting out as much as I used to, but I'm not seeing people who are demotivated/demoralized out there in the real world.  In fact, I'm starting to see people ignore social distancing guidelines and people not wearing face masks anymore.  In my area at least, people are sick and tired of being scared of a virus that's truly not as bad as it's being portrayed.

In some towns in my state, kids are going back to school and a lot of businesses have already opened up again.  I understand that the reaction to COVID-19 varies (certainly from country to country), but where in the world are there people still being devastated by this pandemic?  I ask that sincerely, since I haven't really been keeping up with news about COVID-19 even in my state, and I know absolutely nothing about how it's affecting other countries.

This year already gave us a lot of problems, and this current situation really brought a lot of pain, and people are suffering but what we need to do is to keep going. This pandemic should not stop us from moving forward because it's always up to us if we want to survive since we can't just depend on our government or anyone.

I've already heard several stories about other's struggles in life because of this whole issue, but I'm just wondering, what do you think can motivate people who are heavily affected by the pandemic? I don't think others will still think about the next generation because they are already suffering in the present so how can they think of the future.

[KimberlyCon]

You're goddamn right bro. I've had a huge decrease of sales in my personal online business due to the corona and it depresses me.

[CarnagexD]

Motivation, yes  the suicide rate from my country increased from the past months of being in quarantine. I don't know how a suicidal thoughts come, it doesn't pop on my head whenever I have problems, the family is an enough motivation I guess but most of the time suicides happens because of the family. In light of this covid, it is inevitable for people to lose their job and by that reason alone people think that life is worthless already having no money. Businesses should be looking for alternatives now, government should focus on creating vaccs and US should be motivated. Let's help each other.

[cabron]

Just look forward and see whether you can move on. I'm always reminded by the movies I watched before like the family staying together despite their troubles than one member goes abroad to find a job leaving one parent and the kids.

Staying together with your family is indeed a good motivation already. The internet is already available for your to contact just about anyone, talk to friends.

I understand that the reaction to COVID-19 varies (certainly from country to country), but where in the world are there people still being devastated by this pandemic?

Lots of small businesses have gone under, I'm sure. Several shops permanently closed near me. There are a couple others that have been "temporarily" closed since March and I simply don't understand how they'll ever afford to open again.

I have a close friend who was axed in February and is now long term unemployed. Can't find anything but very temporary work. If you weren't just furloughed and then immediately got your job back, or if you can't do delivery work like Amazon or Instacart (or don't have a car to do it), my sense is it's becoming very difficult to get hired in this economy. The real job growth happening right now is mainly low paying gig work. The August jobs data was also boosted by 240K temporary Census workers who are about to be laid off.

Growth is slowing and I don't think this optimistic trajectory will sustain.

In fact, I'm starting to see people ignore social distancing guidelines and people not wearing face masks anymore.  In my area at least, people are sick and tired of being scared of a virus that's truly not as bad as it's being portrayed.

I guess it's different wherever you go. Every single person I see wears a mask now. Everyone. They'll be walking alone in the street with nobody else around, or driving in their cars alone, and they are wearing a mask. Insanity!

It actually pisses me off too because a lot of these people think wearing a mask means they don't need to respect your personal space at all. Then they look at me like I'm the crazy one for not wearing a mask 24 hours a day, alone, outside in 100 degree summer weather.

Everyone needs motivation right now, businesses, companies, every individual needs motivation right now. The world is struggling due to the pandemic, well I mean world is struggling too much due to the pandemic. If we are just prepared on this thing to happen, like 3 to 5 years ago, a year of this disease won't be noticeable I guess and we can still do our normal thing but it ain't. Deal with the present, and plan your future. The bright future of every one is an enough motivation. HOPES UP!

One man's loss is another man's profits.

While somebody's selling, there is also a buyer at the other side of the trade.

Action > Reaction.

No need to be a pessimist but being realistic helps big time in the long run. The reality is, this pandemic isn't going anywhere, yet. Even when after it goes away, it will leave a huge mess behind.

This is when Preppers are very prepared for. They are the ones who are not very worried on the current situation because they have been waiting for this kind of situation years and years and are already prepared their things for this. Though most of us are not prepared for this situation, we can still make good out of the situation. Whatever we can do not to get depressed or combat this pandemic, just do it!

[Stedsm]

I believe that covid-19 will remain forever as it's a disease and diseases come and go, but they remain in the environment and can any time affect anybody. All we have now is the vaccine and that's what wasn't there due to which everyone suffered. I believe we and sanitization need to go hand-in-hand in order to let ourselves remain safe and keep our families safe as well, but the fact is we need to live with this now. About trying to develop opportunities, I believe you should do something that involves too many people (get an idea about it), plan it and implement it. People will do anything nowadays that they're too bored sitting at their home. This will not only help you, but others too who are willing to do some work.

[harizen]

But in this condition, we should just look forward and think about of next-generation future.

Isn't it an obvious thing to do to just move forward even how bad or worst the situation is even with the pandemic or not?

We have no other choice but to take the situation as one of the biggest challenges we experienced in our life. The pandemic shouldn't be the reason for our world to stop.

Think outside the box or much better if we will remove totally the box on what things should be done in order to cope up with the situation.

Isn't it not having money to bring food for your family enough motivation to adapt and evolve and look for ways to generate income for you? I have seen thousands and thousands of people who lost their job going online selling everything just to be able to get through this pandemic. So there's hope, and let's remain optimistic that everyone could just overcome this. One thing on our side though is that thru human's history, we are very resilient, so chances of survival for the next generation is very high.

Yes. This pandemic creates a big challenge for everyone to keep on surviving despite of the struggles we are now facing. I believe we should be more positive and motivated this time so we can still be more productive with our life. Daily routine should keep going on with all the safety measures we should keep on doing.

...
I understand that the reaction to COVID-19 varies (certainly from country to country), but where in the world are there people still being devastated by this pandemic?...

Here in our province, people are the same. They don't care and do what they wanted to do and go wherever they go not until a new case is found. They discriminate the place where the positive is from thinking that they might also be contaminated, most of them blame the government, the people and anyone they knew that's responsible.

They might look they don't care but deep inside they don't want it, it is funny since they don't follow protocols and when they got it they blame everyone else.

Being positive despite the current covid situation is relatively difficult especially if you do not personally experience its effects. It is easy to say to keep being positive but if all efforts are against your favor, then the only thing you have to do is to pray and hope for luck!

In my country, I have personally witnessed several people who lost their jobs due to the pandemic. Worse, they have obligations to meet every week and to think that they have to feed their family and their jobs have been taking away is truly heartbreaking. I hope that everyone during this very difficult time finds peace and comfort and I also wish that your investments would be successful in the end.

[Yatsan]

It is easy to say that we must divert our attention from negative mindset going to positive one because we are not standing on the same situation for we all know that many have really suffered during this pandemic. I am pretty sure we do have different ways of coping up with the situation but indeed it is really a must have to gain motivation from anything that will give you a boost in your morale for the pandemic is not just affecting the physical health but as well as the mental health which makes it more difficult to deal with. Maybe it would be best to keep yourself busy dealing with something to divert your attention or talk to your close friends and relatives to have some sort of support because that would serve as a really great help most specially at times like this.

[JuSayCo]

Absolutely. Though there were times, that I admit I really felt tired having no freedom at all when going outside. And wearing a mask and a faceshield is part of the strict protocol here in my country, which I really obeyed...but, there are still a lot of hard-headed people that ignored this rules or maybe because its kinda hard wearing all those necessary gear everytime. Its not that easy.
My country now are getting worst, not just with the arising number of positive cases daily but the unending corruption especially in the National Health Insurance that made us drowned in this crisis. The only thing that motivates me in this strange time, is my family. I could not afford seeing them starving just like the many individuals anywhere. That is why I keep on doing my best to earn and brought food on the table so we can eat and help others if we have more. I've been trying to always feel good and positive out of the bad situation. I am keeping my faith that this chaos shall pass one of this days and we can eventually recover from all forms of losses that we had.
