If you are indoors at this time in global history, odds are that you are finding yourself more bored than ever. If you are not indoors at this time, please, for the love of humanity, do so immediately — being bored isn’t that bad.

People aren’t afraid of looking stupid because it’s considered socially acceptable to look stupid when everyone is bored.
Current conditions are forcing everyone to get creative. There has never been a better time to elevate what you’re selling, including yourself. Millions of people are all in a position that we’ve never seen them in all at the same time. Think of the internet right now as a stage and everyone online at home in quarantine trapped in a theater. Make your move.
Sir Isaac Newton came up with some of his most important work while he was in quarantine from the Bubonic Plague. This virus has the potential to change life as we know it. If you would like to see positive change in your life, go discover the modern day equivalent of gravity.
