Get to the bottom of the problem...




People often think they know everything… which is rarely the case; even more so with this Covid-19 pandemic. We’ve never seen anything like this, so it pays to learn all you can about this confusing situation and subject.  Don’t just listen to friends or people on Facebook; listen to everything and be curious about it all. You owe it to yourself (and your family, colleagues, friends, and neighbors) to find out the truth, whether you like it or not, or it complies with what your friends or the people you admire say, or not. So that when people talk about it, or ask you about it, you can speak the truth, with honesty… whether it supports your beliefs, or those of your friends, or not. And when you learn the truth (not just what you want the truth to be), act accordingly.  With integrity. Meaning: do what’s right for everyone, not just what you want to do. Treat others the way you want to be treated. Meaning: don’t do anything to infect anyone.  This is a pandemic - not a hoax or a partisan thing; this is serious – as in life and death. Be a leader in this – whether it’s in a company, team, family or community. Leaders are curious, honest, and act with integrity. Act like that today.
