Hey guys!

Everyday we wake up, the news channels keep rolling news like "this is the new normal", "most part of the IT professionals will have to work from home even after the lockdown ends", etc etc etc.

But have we given enough thoughts on how to deal with this "new normal"?



Well, I hadn't until lately. But I have some things that we all can do apart from making picture perfect Dalgona Coffee, cooking Pani Puri at home and working out to keep up with good health.

So here are few couple of things that we can try to acquire a better personality when we come out of the lockdown cocoon. I say cocoon because alike cocoon, we will be better when we come out of it.

Here we go:

1. Vocabulary



How can we improve our vocabulary? The simple answer that most of us is Read. Be it a good novel or the tough to understand Editorial articles of a newspaper. Then there's another way, read "Word Power Made Easy". The book costs only a few over hundred bucks and it has been a great way to learn new words even when you have passed your schooling age.

Another goo d source that I feel is mobile application of Dictionary.com. It has a word of the day thing and you can get more than 350 words a year just for free. Just imagine what could you do in 2 year with more that 700 words.

2. Learn to dance



Often ignored and kept reserved for Sangeet performances, Dancing is another form of exercise to keep you in shape. Come on, you know that your body doesn't move like it should be when it comes to flaunt it. So better start rehearsing while you walk around the house of take break from your productive session of Work From Home thing. 

3. Watch Documentaries



Documentaries are a great way to learn history and inspire yourself to stay boosted in your motivation. I have always liked documentaries as they are the easiest way to learn about something. Some of the best documentaries that you can watch right away are here (Top Documentaries).

4. Learn a skill



All good online tutoring websites are providing some of their courses for free. So you can add up skills and add weightage to your resume which would ultimately be one of your greatest investments of all time. 

Some of the such good websites are udemy.com, coursera.com, unacademy.com.

I know you knew all of them. But have you started even one? Start today and this is the right time if you could not get enough motivation so far.
