The Corona virus disease has now been declared to be a pandemic and has managed to spread in all the continents around the world.
Most countries have put restrictions for their citizens, they have limited movement of their people and several companies around the world are telling their employees to work from home.
This lock down has not even spared Africa as countries like South Africa, Uganda have ordered the closure of places of entertainment like bars, no music concerts and even the church gatherings have been banned for now.
As the Corona virus continues to wreck havoc around the world, many people are stuck at home including me myself and am writing this article while sitting in the living room, taking advantage of this time.
Today i share with you some of the things that you can actually do during this time when we are all stuck at home.
Here are the things to do when you are waiting for the Corona virus epidemic to give way for life to continue.
1. Indulge in your hobbies
During this time when several people have been left jobless and idle, it is the best time for you to try out some of the hobbies that you have always wanted to indulge yourself in.
For my case, am spending this time writing blog posts for my blog and also learning to code.
Other hobbies you could try out are things like writing songs if you love music, learn to sew clothes if you have a strong interest in fashion and design and many others out there.
2. Spend time with your family and friends
Most people out there have been working very hard and they hardly have had any time for their close friends and family, why not use this time available to help build strong bonds with your family members, for parents this time to spend time with your kids and even understand them better so that you can teach them the good morals in society.
3. Read books
If you are a book lover, then this is a very good time for you to read books so that you can be able to gain new knowledge or you could just read for pleasure.
For those students out there, this is time for you to spend catching up with those topics that have been a headache for you especially if you are preparing for the exams ahead.
Use this time to get good at those topics that you didnot understand very well.
4. For music artists, record new songs
If you are a music artist out there, Corona virus epidemic has drastically affected your business since concerts have been cancelled.
What is the best way for you to use this time availed to you by the tragedy?
If you do have a studio at home, you could use this time to write and record songs at your place so that by the time everything is back to normal, then you will have new songs that you could release for your fans to enjoy.
5. For businesses, use socialmedia to promote your products
Since most businesses have closed down, especially the brick and mortar businesses then it is the time for you to make use of social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter and Instagram to promote your products and services.
Use social media to engage with your customers or even make some deliveries to their places of residence and make some sales until it is okay to return to normal ways of doing things.
We do not know how long this Corona virus epidemic will last but one thing we know is that some day everything will return to normal, all we can do right now is protect ourselves and also make good use of this time well.
