Beyond the Beautiful Game
Episode description
We're in the middle of unprecedented times, and no matter where we're from or who we are, we're all impacted. For the current generation, the coronavirus has delivered an epoch-shifting way in which we live our lives.
Rob examines, in his trademark philosophical way, the effects of the quarantine, and our eventual role in helping humanity to get back on track through leadership and wisdom.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Never in living memory, has a world event so truly brought together each member of the humanrace. It's a situation that, despite its negative impact, has united humanity in a common cause.
- An important part of accepting the current situation is to acknowledge our weaknesses and fears. We are human beings. We are emotional, and we are prone to change.
- We can't expect the world to go back to the way it was before. Even from the smallest of disruptions, change always follows. Humility and the importance of connection will be the main elements of humanity to evolve following this.
- Gratitude should be a part of our everyday practices. Be grateful for love, for the food we have, the clean air we breathe, and the countless ways in which we may still interact with the world around us.
- Every moment is a choice. We can choose aggression, frustration and anger, or we can endeavour to treat each moment as an opportunity to do better. It's all about self-discipline.
