I have read, sighted and heard the craziest superstitions about the leap year 2020. Undoubtedly 2020 set in with many challenges the first being the lifestyle changing, politically exposing, and disruptive COVID-19, then there was the earth quake that crept through the west African sub region compounded by an election year with its related conduct. In fact bad news/misfortunes and 2020 are like a leach and it’s prey; they seem inseparable.
Over the past 6 months there have been those who sit and complain and those that see the brighter side of things and work towards what lies ahead. It is easy to just fold your arms and whine at the force majeure of life than it is to rise up, find new ways of doing things and adapt to current situations, to be honest Covid-19 is one of those life altering phenomenon that requires us to readjust our lifestyle permanently.
To the hungry ones, keep being stubborn about your goals yet flexible about your methods. To those sleeping and doing nothing, waiting for a clear blue sky and the best of circumstances, I wish you all the best.
For those working and modifying their hustle to current trends and circumstances, keep at it don’t write 2020 off just yet, there is still a lot that can in such a “dirty place”. While we are still in a pandemic, Dubai is still scheming to go to Mars in a first ever Arab mission to the Red Planet, and Bezos is shattering the rich list. This era deserves some thinkers and schemers who have a long term mindset so keep rolling.
