Preface, pages 1-2

In March 2020 Covid-19 the world faced a new thing. An unexpected, unwanted thing.

With the new year just months old a deadly, contagious virus lead the way into a once in a century pandemic.

Devastating and unapologetic in the way it changed lives, Covid 19 forced the world to its knees. Agendas, programs and schedules were suddenly discarded and abandoned.

For months until mitigation efforts were decided upon it seemed we were all benched like players waiting for the whistle to blow. 

In the end it was clear we could only move forward if we adjusted and adapted.

New rules and new procedures were put in place for once routine tasks.

The upheaval and discomfort of it all rattled some folks, many of whom resisted boisterously and belligerently.

I did not.

Instead, I folded and conformed into the change.

I had never been in a pandemic before, but I was familiar with the need to change.

What many people considered disruption was familiar to me.

My life had always been littered with unexpected challenges.

 I knew what it felt like be sidelined and to simply watch life pass me by.

So, during the pandemic I simply did what I knew worked during these times.

I began to reposition myself. 

Like a player seated on a bench during half time, I started to plan for the rest of the match and prepare for when the whistle blew.

To me, these periods of mandatory inactivity present the same options as those available during half time during a tennis match.

These seasons allows us the opportunity to reassess, plan, strategize, reimagine and reinvent

Ourselves for the next half of the game.

 

Initially I hesitated to begin writing; and was only convinced as the pandemic lengthened and strengthened, extending my stay indoors.

As bodies piled up in my beloved NY, I joined my neighbors in clapping at 7pm. It was our way of showing appreciation to healthcare workers on the frontlines whose shift ended at that time.

Wanting to do more than just clap, I eventually committed to this book.

With all the changes it brought many of us would be forced into creating new lives.

And so, I began to write down in this book the mindset shifts and action steps which successfully transformed my life previously.

 I hope that it will be useful.
