How could we not? The question is: Will you embrace an emotional posture that models how you\u2019d like to feel instead? Today, this day, we only get once. How do you want today to feel on an emotional level? It takes effort. But it\u2019s a choice. We can\u2019t change how things are in any given moment, but we can change how we will approach today. And yes, an attitude can spread.

Here are some ideas: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Know you\u2019re not alone. Although everyone\u2019s specific circumstances may differ, there isn\u2019t a soul on the planet not impacted by this virus. We are truly in this together. There\u2019s a very special solidarity in that.<\/li><li>Show up for yourself. Honor and own your coping process. That can look different everyday. You deserve that level of self-awareness and care.\u00a0<\/li><li>Yes, use this time to better your business or yourself in any way you see fit. Get fired up about a new business model, or take the plunge on an idea that\u2019s been lingering in the back of your mind for months. But if you need to take a breath, or several, do that, too. It\u2019s more than possible to do both.\u00a0<\/li><li>We are social beings. Be in touch with your people. Ironically, community has never been more important. Let us encourage hope and resilience in one another.\u00a0<\/li><li>Use your resources. Fortunately we live in the technological time that we do and connecting virtually is easier than ever. Expand your network. Host a Zoom happy hour, Saturday or Sunday Zoomosa brunch with friends, or a weekly time to chat with family.\u00a0<\/li><li>Give yourself and others immeasurable grace and <a href=\"https:\/\/propelbusinessworks.com\/propelsocial\/even-in-a-storm\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">kindness<\/a>. It\u2019s the only way.\u00a0\u00a0<\/li><li>Ultimately: Do what you can with what you have. Keep your heart posture towards that of <a href=\"https:\/\/propelbusinessworks.com\/entrepreneur-inspiration\/how-to-stay-postive-when-things-are-uncertain\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">positivity and hope<\/a>. That\u2019s the only thing we can guarantee for ourselves right now.\u00a0<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>And we must ask ourselves the hard questions, too: What are we hurrying back to? What will come of this? How can we be better? <em>Do <\/em>better?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"802\" height=\"1002\" src=\"https:\/\/propelbusinessworks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/ripple.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20859\" srcset=\"https:\/\/propelbusinessworks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/ripple.jpeg 802w, https:\/\/propelbusinessworks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/ripple-240x300.jpeg 240w, https:\/\/propelbusinessworks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/ripple-768x960.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 802px) 100vw, 802px\" \/><figcaption>Ameen Fahmy, Unsplash<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>When We Re-emerge, and What To Do in the Meantime<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The grand hope is that we can emerge from this better and more wholesome people and business owners.

That we can single handedly create a culture of support during the highs and lows.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are, of course, many questions we don\u2019t and won\u2019t have an answer to for awhile.
