During work today, I overheard a colleague of mine (I honestly didn’t mean to!) talking over the phone with his friend. He shared with us later that his friend’s job wasn’t going very smoothly and that she was considering other options. Something that he said hit me real hard.
As someone who has a handful of experience with startup companies, he suggested, why not start her own company. With the current COVID-19 situation, there’s no telling when the world will be back to the way it used to be. There’s no guarantee that big companies won’t go down or those small companies will succeed in the market.
He told her, "Just start now."
With a vision and her persistence, all she needed was to take that first step.
We often give ourselves countless excuses to not quit the job that stresses us daily or to find that job we’re passionate about, even though the pay might not be as good. But with all the changes going on in the world right now, hidden opportunities arise. Those who are constantly on the lookout will surely find them. All that’s left is to hop on the idea and strive.
Before, we might worry that large companies will continue to dominate the market. This, however, might not be the case anymore with the attack of COVID-19. The fundamentals of a company might be shaken, the vision blurred. The problem-solving skills and flexibility of companies are put to test as they tackle the challenges brought by COVID-19. Big players are going down if they’re not quick to think on their feet.
On the other hand, we individuals have nothing to lose when starting a new business now. In fact, we can take advantage of the fluctuating market and find a niche, the golden opportunity that will make our company successful. You just need a clear vision and that burning desire to persistently fuel your plans and actions.
To Conclude
If you’ve always wanted to start a business or bigger, to change the world but never got the push, now is the time. With COVID-19 being the trigger, there’s no better time to start than right now. Take out your drawing board and let’s start brainstorming!

Nice blog! Is your theme custom made or did you download it from somewhere?
A theme like yours with a few simple adjustements would really make my blog stand out.
Please let me know where you got your design. Thanks-

First off I want to say awesome blog! I had a quick question that I’d like to ask if you do not mind.
I was curious to find out how you center yourself and clear
your head prior to writing. I’ve had difficulty clearing my thoughts in getting my thoughts out.
I do enjoy writing but it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are wasted
simply just trying to figure out how to begin. Any ideas or hints?Thank you!

Hi there! Thanks for the comment. Personally, deadlines work extremely well (at least it’s helped me through university). With this in mind, I use the Pomodoro technique and set a certain amount of time to get a specific part done. That way I won’t have time to worry whether it’s good enough. It just gets me started first. Once I’m in the flow, I come back to refine it. To me, it’s better to get things done imperfectly than do nothing perfectly! Hope this can help!

Woah! I’m really digging the template/theme of this blog.
It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s very hard to get that “perfect balance” between superb usability and
visual appeal. I must say you have done a excellent job with this.
In addition, the blog loads extremely fast for me on Firefox.
Excellent Blog!-

Howdy excellent blog! Does running a blog like this require a
lot of work? I’ve virtually no expertise in programming but I had been hoping to start my own blog soon. Anyway, if you have any suggestions or techniques for new blog owners please share.
I know this is off topic but I just wanted
to ask. Thank you!-
daybreakwithray
Hello! Thanks for the comment. Running a blog does require a certain amount of effort but once you set it up, it’s only the content and engagement that takes time. Don’t worry about programming because there are plenty of CMS (like WordPress) that makes the setup code-free. As for suggestions, it would be great to make sure the site is user-friendly and that your content is consistent to your initial purpose. Hope this helps!

Have you ever considered about including a little bit
more than just your articles? I mean, what you say is valuable and all.
However imagine if you added some great visuals or videos to
give your posts more, “pop”! Your content is excellent but with images and video clips, this site
could definitely be one of the very best in its niche. Wonderful blog!-

Hi there! I just wanted to ask if you ever have any trouble with hackers?
My last blog (wordpress) was hacked and I ended up losing a few months of hard work due to no data
backup. Do you have any methods to protect against hackers?-
daybreakwithray
Fortunately, I haven’t come across any so far. That must be heartbreaking to lose your hard work 🙁 I’ve looked into plugins and also checked the security deals at the hosting service I’m currently using. You can also consider finding freelancers on Fiverr to help you tighten the security for your blog.

Wonderful blog! Do you have any recommendations for aspiring writers?
I’m hoping to start my own site soon but I’m a little lost on everything.Would you propose starting with a free platform like WordPress or go for a paid option?
There are so many options out there that I’m totally
confused .. Any tips? Kudos!-
daybreakwithray
Hi there! Thanks for writing to us. I think my top recommendation is to always remember why you started. It not only serves as your purpose, but will help out from future writing blocks and motivate you to keep striving. As for creating your own site, WordPress can be a great starting point. Once you learn more about your direction, you can always switch to paid options as an upgrade. After all, building your “brand” and figuring out whether you’re on the right track takes time. Hope this helps! Looking forward to your site!
