Working from home (alone) has its perks but the most challenging time (aside from trying not to eat everything) is “idle time”. It’s so easy to dwell on the things you can’t do right now, or the thought that you aren’t doing enough, or that you’ve wasted time during this quarantine.
Well I’ve been fighting those moments as best as I can. I’ve started to try my best to focus on the things I HAVE done and continue to do each day while at home:
• Push-ups Daily
• Reading a devotional every morning
• Play monopoly or cards with my wife
• Went for a walk a few times
• Watched new movies and talked about them with friends on zoom
• Visited family from a distance
• FaceTimed friends I haven’t seen in a while
• Enjoy Series or movies with my wife
• Play Call Of Duty online with friends
• Play piano and listen to music
• Started sharing daily bible verses of encouragement through I AM UNYC
These are just some of the things I’ve done and continue to do while “stuck at home”. TRUST ME there’s been some rough days but I’m grateful for my wife who’s prayed with me and loved me even during those times.
I hope you are encouraged to know that you are not alone in this. Yea it’s difficult but you can get through this. Stay positive! Focus on one or two small things you can “control” and work at them regularly.
Let God handle the rest!
IT’S ALL IN HIS HANDS!
