Practically sounds like a cheer, right? Not…but let’s discuss what positives we can glean from these last 6 months.
C for Courage – no matter our situation or stance, we have had to draw from courage many times over.
For me, should I keep my office open and be there for the patients who need me? This was a daily struggle for my conscience, and I relied on my courage and knowledge to move forward. We’ve been open through this whole process, even though we weren’t sure we should at the beginning. Now we know that we have helped many both physically and emotionally.
O for Open – meaning open minded! How hard has this been to know what to do, think and how we should act toward others?
Being open has enabled many of us to continue living with quality and helping others get through hard times. Being open-minded makes us more compassionate and understanding of the paralyzing fear that comes with facing a pandemic.
V for Versatile – how well do we bend and twist with the circumstances that we have faced since early March? Our ability to be versatile has helped when facing hard times, financially and physically, and supported our ability to be creative and to make the best of the situation.
I for Immune Strong! – This is one of the most important and powerful changes that I have seen in many of my patients! How to keep our immunity strong to prepare for being exposed to the virus. We have seen incredible interest and improved knowledge around how this virus attacks and how we can best improve our defenses.
D for Determined – we are an amazing human race, one of fortitude and determination to rise above and survive this difficult time. Though we have all been more isolated and often fearful, we are ready to take on whatever we face next, to be resilient even in the face of this continued confusion.
Think about how you have best survived to this point, dig into the strength that you have found along the way and please continue to stay safe and smart around Covid.
