Nothing to do during the pandemic? Here’s how you can make your routine productive.

The world is undergoing a massive crisis. A microorganism, which is not visible with a naked eye, has taken the globe by storm. Even using a microscope doesn’t work or it might provide a rather ambiguous image of the microorganism. But to obtain a high-profile, unblemished picture of the bijou creature, an electronic microscope which can carry out magnification to about 250,000 times, is necessary.


Every day, thousands of individuals are becoming infected to the novel virus and many are losing their lives because of it. The blue planet is undergoing a strict lock-down and all the activities- social, economic, religious and recreational- have been halted. All the newspapers worldwide are filled with corona-virus speculations and stories and the entire internet is featuring tales and theories about it. Even the television has become a source of COVID-19 information. There is nothing to do and lives of all the people have come to a halt. Boredom constitutes the majority of every human’s routine.

Studying

So far the most boring thing, in the history of mankind, is studying. The best method to sleep is to study. And history has seen very rare cases where studying has been one’s passion. And it were those enthusiastic people who transformed the world to what it is today. Inventing something remarkable was for them, a piece of cake, which they would often share with the world, to let it extract its benefits.


And this piece of cake was even present before the invention of cake, as inventing the cake was itself a piece of cake. Coming back to studying, there is no doubt that it is the most important thing on the planet, oh sorry! I mean the most boring thing on the planet. But wait! What if aliens are students? So actually, it is the most boring thing in the universe. But apart from humour, studying is indeed the important thing as it is the first step to exceptional discoveries. And it is for sure a productive method of spending time.


Spending time with the family

We can spend our time with our families and recall great experiences in life. We can also chit-chat with our family members and make positive memories. This is one of the best way of spending time as this involves no gadgets neither is it a matter of focus. Instead it relaxes oneself and makes him realize the important of a family.


Reading

Reading is one of the best occupation and is the habit of many individuals. It is a very exciting thing as you not only fetch information from it, but it also make you an expert of the language you are reading in. And just your vocabulary and pronunciation is enhanced, your vision and ability of imagination is also broadened. To be a writer, one must be a reader before. Readers are aware of many different things that are alien to non-readers.



Exercising

In this tense situation and hectic environment, the best way to relax yourself is exercise. There are many procedures of exercising as there is a sizeable riot of exercises. From an easy one to the most difficult one, such a wide range of exercises allows individuals of every age to perform exercise. Apart from being a great time pass, some exercises can even relief some muscle and joint throbbing. Therefore, exercising stands to be one of the most interesting activities of life.

Irrespective of having such great opportunities and ways of time pass, we always opt for the most unorthodox and faded way of spending time. We sacrifice all our time using electronics, sidelining our family members and other lucrative methods of spending time.
