Don’t be a dinosaur
No one knows for certain whether it was an asteroid, comet, or continental drift that caused dinosaurs to become extinct. We do know, however, that something altered the Earth’s climate and the dinosaurs were simply unable to adjust with the times.
Cockroaches, on the other hand, survived this global phenomenon and have shown their ability to evolve. When man destroyed the cockroach’s natural habitat to build houses and buildings, the cockroach packed his bags and moved in as well. Man then invented insect repellent, but over time, cockroaches were able to build up a tolerance against many of the pesticides that humans have used to try and terminate them. Time and time again they’ve shown the ability to adapt.
COVID-19 has forever changed the world as we knew it. The question now becomes are you going to become a dinosaur because you are unable to adjust to “the new normal” or will you find a new way? Changing won’t be easy as it hardly ever is, but it is necessary in order to succeed.
