We are hard-wired to be afraid of the unknown. It’s a survival adaption that has served us well for a millennia. At the start we don’t know how widespread or deadly the illness is. Misinformation abounds, the media pumps out the fear constantly.

The reality is this: Everything in life falls into two categories and so we are simply dealing with the things we can control and the things we can’t control. That has not changed nor will it ever.

As with all things, we can adopt a small-minded mindset and become a part of the problem, or we can adopt a small giant mindset and be part of the solution.

In an environment of panic, skilful thinkers go back to the basics. Remember, we have emotion-based decision making and reason-based decision making.
