*THE BIG PICTURE IN LOCKDOWN*
In as much as COVID19 pandemic is regrettable by what it portends for inclement times , I also want to say it can also be a blessing in disguise.
Brainstorming with a friend, we came to the conclusion that this is the best time to ask ourselves serious questions so as to reinvent oneself.
If you have been working for a company for more than 5yrs and you don't have 100k savings ... *You need to think*
If you have been doing a particular hustle for more than 5yrs and notting to show for it.. *You need to think.*
If you've spent one month at home under Lockdown drawing from your reserves without cash inflows from other sources......
*YOU NEED TO THINK.*
IF You've spent 30 days at home browsing the internet, responding to greetings in Facebook, looking up pictures in Instagram, watching YouTube videos, responding to WhatsApp chats, calling everyone and nobody is calling you.... .
*YOU NEED TO THINK.*
IF you've spent 30 days at home eating delicacies,drinking choice wine, sleeping, watching movies and exercising in your gym without reading a word from any book.....
*YOU NEED TO THINK*
*30 days Lockdown means 720 idle hours.
*720 idle hours translates to 43,200 minutes of idle time.
*8 Man hours worktime per day translates to 240 hours lost time or capacity under utilization or inefficiency index.
Life has given us almost a month to think about ourself and come out with a Grand Strategy and productive plan to stem the tide.
What we are facing now is almost the same thing retirees face when they retire and even worse.
One thing to note for sure is that, at the end of this pandemic, many businesses will suffer severe setbacks and new ones will emerge out of thick skin.
Start-Ups will swallow SMEs, Digital media will bury traditional media, Artificial Intelligence will take out unskilled labour.
Billionaires will feel the heat and new ones will need longer time to emerge.
So, ask yourself, which side will I belong to when this Lockdown is over?
Meanwhile, as we speak, most companies are also typing their own *redundancy* letters to be distributed .
Don't spend your time waiting for *COVID-19* daily statistics and doing all manner of social media challenge.
*SIT AT HOME . LOOK AT THE BIG PICTURE, THINK. STRATEGIZE and COME OUT STRONGER*
*Schools in USA and UK are not shutdown but reverted to online academics.
*The financial services sector(Wall street NASDAQ)in USA and UK are not shutdown but trading online.
*Certified online courses are not shutdown but running unimpeded.
It is only in the third world that the Lockdown is considered holidays without electricity, ventilators,test kits and face masks.
The Game Changers after the Lockdown are:
*Smart Thinkers.
*Multi super skill innovators.
*Creative inventors.
*Ideas Merchants.
*Cost reduction strategists.
*Market share readers.
*Competition induced drivers.
These boils down to the search for "HOT BRAINS" or High Level Human Capacity index cases for Strategic Turnarounds and Corporate rebound.
*WHAT TO DO?*
*Think diversification.
*Think Advisory Consultancy.
*Think Capacity building.
*Think Technology
*Think Skills set innovation.
*Think Artificial intelligence forex trading
* Think Income multiplication
*Think of moving to the right side of the Quadrant
TIME, TASK AND TIDE DEFINES STRATEGIC ENGAGEMENT.
