During the Covid-19 pandemic, one of the things that I have focused upon was to remain vigilant. The word vigilant has a perceived meaning of being a fighter, but the actual definition is a little more different. The word vigilant means “keenly watchful to detect danger; wary; ever awake and alert, sleeplessly watchful.” Vigilant does not mean fighting without a plan, but planning on how to fight when the fight happens.
We must remain alert at this historic time. An example that I have used to keep myself vigilant is the rise and fall of the Greek Empire. The Greek Empire did not fall at its weakest point; the Greek Empire fell when the empire was at its strongest point. As soon as Alexander the Great died, the Greek Empire was broken up into four separate entities.
Before the virus hit, this world appeared to be at its strongest point in human history. Now, the world is a stone’s throw away from the entire economy collapsing. You must remain vigilant because anything can change at any time.

In this difficult situation, the whole world has been shown to be vulnerable. We also need to be very careful about irrelevant things.
Yes we have to remain strong during the hard times.
We need to be Vigilant about what is happening around us in terms of spread of the Virus, what other nations are doing to fight the virus, learn from the errors of others. We also need to be vigilant of what rouge countries are doing, of what huge corporate are doing.
We need to be vigilant of our own emotions and keep them in check.
I totally agree. You wrote this better than me.
The world has changed, this virus will stay for a long time, each person is going to have to behave in a more careful way not to get too close to orhers, wear a mask,rubber glives when picking out produce. . . Working from home will be the new normal.
I agree because the time to adjust is right now.
