Professionally surviving a pandemic








Uncertainties all around 

will there be a pay cut? 

will I retain my job? for how long? 

when will I get the promotion I missed?

will I survive the pandemic itself?  


Insecurities connected with 

going physically for work 

Insecurities connected with

working from home  

many anxieties are getting converted to fear!  


Staying motivated first 

to be able to motivate others

focusing on being grounded, maintaining equilibrium  

the need of the hour- To reassure oneself

that this too shall pass... 


This is the time to equip oneself 

update with skills, knowledge, certifications

enroll for courses,  be fit and ready

to encash it, when the time comes

when we have beaten the pandemic!


It is only a matter of time 

that the inevitable happens

it is the very law of nature 

that occurs without fail 


Light invariably emerges after darkness...

  3. Interesting and the need of the hour. Probably you could have added mental stability and meditation and exercise to stay fit.

  4. Thank you for the feedback Sundar! Yes, meditation would be a good way for "maintaining the equilibrium' that I had mentioned in the poem.
