Xen's Declassified 20s Survival Guide. Top Story - November 2020.
At one point we were all wearing diapers, still figuring out how to train our tongue to wrap around the word "mommy," and "daddy." At one point we were being coddled and we didn't understand what boundaries were. At one point we all blinked for too long and by the time we opened our eyes again we were pushed out into the real world (whatever that means) with sensitive bodies, overwhelmed minds, and plates filled with responsibilities and expectations. We're not babies anymore.

How Oversharing Can Impede Personal Growth
Social media has made it so easy for any person to share information with whoever may be following or connected to them. It’s almost as if we made numerous New Years Resolutions on a daily basis and simply shared them with the public. While this action alone may not be detrimental to the process of personal growth, it surely can play a hand in the downfall of your goals.

Choices
Every single living being makes choices in this world, from the time your born until the day you die. I witnessed a woman struggling in life and a thought came to me. At what point in her souls journey did she make the first bad choice that led her to where she is today? One might say destiny but we are given free will so at the end of the day it comes down to choices. Do you choose to call it a tomato or a tomato see it's the same thing we just choose different names for it. Take these two older gentlemen who had been rivals for what seemed like forever and there latest feud was whether cola was called “soda” or “pop” now from the outside looking in we can all agree it's the same thing but we choose to give it a name and therefore it has power. Power in the belief to know it as the name you know it as. Your father and his before him all called id it “soda” or “pop” but it is and always has been simply the same thing, a carbonated beverage. We are arguing about the same thing, both trying to argue the same point but only able to in one's own words. Blinded that there could be another outlook or another angle to every situation. Only being able to see what your able to see until that one day arises that something or someone challenges that point view. Do you at this point stop because your point of view is correct and it's not possible that it could be wrong? Or do you stop and analyze the situation and see if there could be fault to your own point of view or to validate it. But again “soda” or “pop” at the root of every argument your both seeing it from your own point of view. From what you were given in life up until that point in time that something or someone was introduced to offer you a choice. When one is able to simply see that you are both arguing about the same thing then you can understand the other persons point of view “soda” or “pop”. At some level most of your beliefs are probably the same but your getting hung up on semantics. Agree to disagree on that one point and you'll find your a lot more informed and able to create a new hypothesis on the subject at hand in a healthy way. Stop getting caught in the weeds, tripping over the pebbles that seem like boulders but once conquered were merely stumbling blocks in retrospect. Maybe these have always been the choices we choose every day that slowly pile up onto each other like the biggest game of pig pile ever created. One day spiraling out of control and waking up and asking what happened? Then someone like myself witnessing one from afar asking again when in her souls journey did she make the first choice that got her here now.

Second, consider that this is required to get back to the life before lockdown so that it’s easy to begin with.

In many countries there are still restrictions on the number of people allowed to gather in public spaces if you do not consider yours, or meeting points, so you may need to start small. Try and meet up in outdoors, such as walk in the park or a ride, as evidence says that COVID-19 transmission being lower outdoors in comparison to indoors. So enjoy open space before heading to a enclosed one. Share and Talk yourself Out The COVID-19 pandemic has increased tendency to develop a sort of mental disorders which is being studied too.

But still, it was also an opportunity to break the regular cycle and adopt new habits and behaviours, learn a new skill, or take up a hobby which many did.
