We are getting to the end of year 2020 and still we haven’t figured out how to overcome the situation of COVID-19 (Coronavirus Disease 2019) Pandemic. We barely have started this year and now we are at the end of it. Most of us had some goals and some dreams to fulfil this year but now we are sitting in our homes hardly even surviving on our savings.

Even though rich and powerful people are finding ways to generate money in this stressful situation, poor people are under the mental pressure of how to sustain themselves in this situation.

The world will have 88-115 million ‘new extreme poor people’ in 2020 due to the novel coronavirus disease pandemic, a new World Bank report released has said that “The number could rise to 150 million by 2021”. Most of the new extreme poor will be in countries that already have high poverty rates. Several middle-income countries will see significant numbers of people slip below the extreme poverty line. About 82 per cent of the total will be in middle-income countries according to the new World Bank estimates.

Due to this long lock down, the jobless poor families are forced to lock down their hunger too. Many people are forced to lose their life in the streets, while some people are choosing suicide as the best alternative to the hunger.

When the government implemented lock down, most of the people that worked day and night just to earn their daily bread started to face major problems. Every sector of the country started facing economic problems as well as mental pressure. Education sector is also hampered a lot due to this lock down. But like others who are worried about the future days and how to continue their business in future.

We should be worried about those who don’t even have shelter to survive, food to eat, water to drink, who have been stranded in different countries and at different borders. What is going to happen to them? How are they going to survive? They can’t even pay for their food, then how are they going to pay for their medications or hospital bills?

Children are highly vulnerable to even short periods of hunger and malnutrition potentially affecting them for their whole life. If we act now, we can prevent and contain the pandemic threat facing the poorest countries and some of the most vulnerable children.

Will life before COVID-19 Pandemic ever come back? If yes, how much time it will take to retrieve from it, could homeless people and people that have no food ever survive this, what should the government do to protect their citizens and people that are in their Country?

The client, the worker, or the boss… Who is the best placed to judge the quality of your work? Defining a job well done can be tricky. But by confronting these very different sets of criteria, we can hopefully reach to a point.

What do a purring engine, a subtle perfume, and successful meetings have in common? A fair amount of “job well done”. Whereas, its opposite is the “botched job” – from the “hotline” which won’t pick up, to the sales of contaminated products are met with annoyance, or even indignation. So how do we bridge the gap between our initial intentions and the final product? How can a “job well done” be organized collectively? The notion is definitely a subjective one; but there are some dilemmas we can all identify with. When care workers protest against tight schedules which are harming their residents, for example, we understand their exasperation… But if we are to be practical, we would probably be better off asking not what a job well done is, but who should define it.

Unfortunately, we cannot expect to build up our firm’s capacity simply by hiring employees, even ones who seem to be qualified on paper. It takes an investment in designing and supervising the work they do. Thus, there are some fundamentals of good job that we need to do right away to achieve the recognition of job well done. Like defining the characteristics of high-quality work in detail and creating a checklist for each task done even a natural chunk or unit of work done and to make sure your employees or your colleagues know what they need to do in order to get a best outcome is a part of job well done.
Going over our own checklists and of employees and spending plenty of time on each point, discussing it, demonstrating it and then encouraging questions and comments with the other employees is the essence of a job well done. Other quality is how to handle the situation when things go wrong now. Thus, focusing on checking again and again or asking the employees about what went wrong and why and how the same problem might be avoided in the future. In other words, always using errors or problems as learning opportunities and staying calm at messed up situations is the step of a ladder to well done job. This will help keep us focused on the pursuit of high standards.

The most important thing is an Appreciation, which is also a fundamental human need. Employees respond to appreciation expressed through recognition of their good work because it confirms that their work is valued. When employees and their work are valued, their satisfaction and productivity rises, and they are motivated to maintain or improve their good work. Employee recognition is free or low cost; employee recognition is the timely, informal or formal acknowledgement of a person’s or team’s behavior, effort or business result that supports the organization’s goals and values, which has clearly been demonstrated beyond normal expectations. Recognition is also a powerful means of communication; it sends extremely positive signals to the recipient and others who are aware of it and makes them capable enough to perform their jobs in the best way.

Doing a great job is as much of an attitude as it is an activity. Jonas Salk, the medical researcher, said, “The reward for job well done is the opportunity to do more.” So we must give it our best. Excellence is not a destination, but a way of life. Every time we hear “Thanks for doing a good job,” we’ll know that we are on the right course. Thus, sending a mail or a letter of thanks giving to a person who has done his job very well is very important to keep his efficiency to work intact and fresh.

From the olden times man had worn something to protect himself from heat and cold. In olden days they may be leaves of trees and after that man invented clothes, because man is the only creature on earth that wear something to cover nakedness.

Outfit is the distinctive style of dress of an individual or group that reflects class, gender, profession, ethnicity, nationality, activity or epoch. Outfit means the act of fitting out or equipping a set of tools or equipment especially for the practice of a trade or a clothing ensemble often for a special occasion or activity or physical, mental, or moral endowments or resources.

Dress and fashion can be used not only to symbolize culture, religion or spirituality, but it can also be used as a tool of oppression as well as liberation. For many people, outfit is an expression of personality, faith, choice and identity. It can also deeply affect one’s spiritual self and help connect the wearer to her inward self.

Marco Pallis describes the significance and meaningfulness between outfit and spiritual identity and how, according to him, outfit ranks among the most important but least analyzed sites of colonization. He is particularly interested in analyzing outfit as a component of spirituality. He writes that “of many things that a person puts to use in the pursuit of her earthly vocation, there are none perhaps, which are so intimately bound up with her whole personality as the clothes she wears”. The first thing that Pallis note tells is how outfit greatly modifies the appearance of a person and even his/her facial characteristics.

The most obvious function of outfit is to protect the wearer from the elements. In hot weather, outfit provides protection from sunburn or wind damage. In the cold it offers thermal insulation. Shelter can reduce the functional need for clothing. For example, coats, hats, gloves and other outer layers are normally removed when entering a warm place. Similarly, outfit has seasonal and regional aspects, so that thinner materials and fewer layers of outfit are generally worn in warmer regions and seasons than in colder ones.

Outfit performs a range of social and cultural functions, such as individual, occupational and gender differentiation, and social status. In many societies, norms about outfit reflect standards of modesty, religion, gender, and social status. Outfit may also function as adornment and an expression of personal taste or style.

Outfit protects against many things that might injure or irritate the uncovered human body, including rain, snow, wind, and other weather, as well as from the sun. Outfits that are too sheer, thin, small or tight offer less protection. Appropriate clothes can also reduce risk during activities such as work or sport. Some outfits protects from specific hazards, such as insects, noxious chemicals, weather, weapons, and contact with abrasive substances.

Outfit has a deep influence on human behavior. A person who is not dressed according to prevalent fashion or season is mocked at. For example, a person wearing a woolen suit in summers would be a source of laughter. It has a deep influence on adolescents. On one hand, they want to dress up fashionably while on the other hand, they are pressurized by family values. If they do not dress up according to the latest fashion, they are mocked at due to they develop inferiority complex, whereas proper outfit inculcates a feeling of self-confidence and self control which is very essential for the all round personality development.

Outfits enhance our personality, in fact outfits makes a man. Outfits, more than any other factor adds to the development of overall personality. The outfit of a person helps others to recognize who he or she is. For example, we can easily identify the school of a child by his uniform. Similarly, nurses, doctors, advocates and soldiers all have their distinctive uniform which defines their social role.

Dressing reflects the nationality, culture, character, etc. of the wearer. It is an indispensable social condition to use some kind of outfit because one cannot live naked in the society. In order to be civilized we will have to wear a reasonable outfit for various reasonable works.

In Europe good outfit is the first condition for being a gentleman. It adds to our personality, sophistication and well being. A man with a great outfit is better appreciated in service-interviews. He feels psychologically better. According to some people, it is said that we should not judge people by their looks or outfits but unfortunately we are judged. Thus, our outfit must be presentable, comfortable and reasonable according to the will of God.

Entertainment is a form of activity that holds the attention and interest of an audience, or gives pleasure and delight.

It can be an idea or a task, but is more likely to be one of the activities or events that have developed over thousands of years specifically for the purpose of keeping an audience’s attention. Although people’s attention is held by different things, because individuals have different preferences in entertainment, most forms are recognizable and familiar. Storytelling, music, drama, dance, and different kinds of performance exist in all cultures, were supported in royal courts, developed into sophisticated forms and over time became available to all citizens. The process has been accelerated in modern times by an entertainment industry that records and sells entertainment products.

Entertainment evolves and can be adapted to suit any scale, ranging from an individual who chooses a private entertainment from a now enormous array of pre-recorded products; to a banquet adapted for two; to any size or type of party, with appropriate music and dance; to performances intended for thousands; and even for a global audience.

The experience of being entertained has come to be strongly associated with amusement, so that one common understanding of the idea is fun and laughter, although many entertainments have a serious purpose. This may be the case in the various forms of ceremony, celebration, religious festival, or satire for example. Hence, there is the possibility that what appears as entertainment may also be a means of achieving insight or intellectual growth.

An important aspect of entertainment is the audience, which turns a private recreation or leisure activity into entertainment. The audience may have a passive role, as in the case of persons watching a play, opera, television show, or film; or the audience role may be active, as in the case of games, where the participant/audience roles may be routinely reversed. Entertainment can be public or private, involving formal, scripted performance, as in the case of theatre or concerts; or unscripted and spontaneous, as in the case of children’s games.

Most forms of entertainment have persisted over many centuries, evolving due to changes in culture, technology, and fashion for example with stage magic. Films and video games, for example, although they use newer media, continue to tell stories, present drama, and play music. Festivals devoted to music, film, or dance allow audiences to be entertained over a number of consecutive days.

Some activities that were once considered entertaining, particularly public punishments, have been removed from the public arena. Others, such as fencing or archery, once necessary skills for some, have become serious sports and even professions for the participants, at the same time developing into entertainment with wider appeal for bigger audiences. In the same way, other necessary skills, such as cooking, have developed into performances among professionals, staged as global competitions and then broadcast for entertainment.

What is entertainment for one group or individual may be regarded as work by another. The familiar forms of entertainment have the capacity to cross over different media and have demonstrated a seemingly unlimited potential for creative remix. This has ensured the continuity and longevity of many themes, images, and structures. Entertainment can be distinguished from other activities such as education and marketing even though they have learned how to use the appeal of entertainment to achieve their different goals. Sometimes entertainment can be a mixture for both.

The importance and impact of entertainment is recognized by scholars and its increasing sophistication has influenced practices in other fields such as musicology. Psychologists say the function of media entertainment is “the attainment of gratification”. No other results or measurable benefit are usually expected from it (except perhaps the final score in a sporting entertainment). This is in contrast to education (which is designed with the purpose of developing understanding or helping people to learn) and marketing (which aims to encourage people to purchase commercial products).

However, the distinctions become blurred when education seeks to be more “entertaining” and entertainment or marketing seek to be more “educational”. Such mixtures are often known by the neologisms “edutainment” or “infotainment”. The psychology of entertainment as well as of learning has been applied to all these fields. Some education-entertainment is a serious attempt to combine the best features of the two. Some people are entertained by others’ pain or the idea of their unhappiness.

As we might probably know, joy is nothing more than the state of one being content and happy. A lot of people in the past, present and some even in the future will have tried to define and explain what they think joy really is. So far, the most reasonable one is the one that sees happiness as something that can only come from within a person and should not be sought for outside in the world.

Joy is defined by different people in different ways. Some find happiness in having a luxurious life while some find it in having loving people around them rather than money. True happiness lies within us. It is something that can be felt and cannot be explained in words. Even though this simple word has a lot of meaning hidden in it, many fail to understand the real one or feel the real happiness. Finding joy outer in this world is the main reason for some people’s fraustration. Nothing can buy you joy, either it is a favorite thing that you desire for or the person you love most or the career you build, unless you feel it within yourself.

A lot of us try to find joy at places or things where it is not. We associate and equate money with happiness. If at all there is joy in money then all of the rich people we have around us would never feel sad. What we have come to see is that even the rich amongst us are the ones that suffer depression, relationship problems, stress, fear and even anxiousness.

Many celebrities and successful people have committed suicide, this goes a long way to show that money or fame does not guarantee happiness. This does not mean that it is a bad thing to be rich and go after money. When you have money, you can afford many things that can make you and those around you very happy.

There is a saying that explains that one can only get true joy when one comes to the realization that only one can make himself/herself happy. This saying and its meaning is always hammered on in at different places but we still refuse to fully understand it and put it into good use. It is very important that we understand that happiness is nothing more than the state of a person’s mind. Joy cannot come from all the physical things we see around us. Only our positive emotions that we get through our good thoughts and actions have the ability to bring true joy in our life. Therefore, it is very important that we work on having only positive thoughts and this can be achieved when we see life in a positive light.

Joy is an internal feeling that helps us to stay fit both mentally and physically. Factors that influence joyfulness are those that contribute to emotional and physical wellbeing. It helps us in lowering our stress and keeping us away from various health issues. It is an important emotion that influences how we live and feel on a daily basis. People have the liberty to choose happiness because we are not bound by any circumstances for life. The reasons of joy may be different for different person. You just need to find out what actually makes you happy. If you want real happiness in life then, you need to understand that only you can make yourself happy.

Every individual finds joy in their own because they know what makes them happy and what doesn’t. It most certainly is found – and not just momentary pleasure, but genuine, long-lasting happiness, which is not something that comes to a person randomly. In fact, most people have to work very hard for a very long time to finally find joy in their life and to create the best possible version of them. Moreover, it is something that any person can build on its own.

Every human being aspires to live a good life. The problem is, we all define the phrase “good living” differently. Some are looking to live an honest life, full of integrity, joy and happiness. Others seek wealth, social status and fame, as they hope these aspects will help them to live the good life. In fact, they directly associate the good life with money and material belongings. Not every person that is living “the dream” or “the good life” is actually living a good life. Take for instance the infamous Colombian drug lord Pablo Escobar. He surely lived well. After all, Escobar is recorded to have been the wealthiest criminal in history. He had private jets, race cars and luxurious mansions. And I’m pretty sure he certainly draws happiness and satisfaction from his life. But was he living a good life? No, because that happiness was the result of so many destroyed lives and homes.

The good life is a term that refers to a (desirable) state that is primarily characterized by a high standard of living or the adherence to ethical and moral laws. Living a good life can mean something different for everyone. However, there is still a general understanding as what this idea entails to most human beings living in the modern world. The good life, in its most simple form, is a series of never ending satisfaction that only grows more powerful as time goes on. In its two different expressions, living the good life can be either expressed through an abundant/luxurious lifestyle full of material belongings or the attempt to live life in accordance with the ethical, moral, legal and religious laws of one’s country or culture.

One of the biggest problems people have in this world is that they are so trapped in the past or the future that they refuse to take control of their life by acknowledging the moment right before their eyes. They are constantly worrying about other things; their body is there but their mind is somewhere else. Be present in each and every moment, it will make you a much happier and inspired human being. As such, the term can both be understood as the quest for wealth, material possessions or luxuries and the quest to create a worthwhile, honest and meaningful existence.

A great number of people assume that the good life can only be attained by adding more to their life. As a consequence, they seek to add material belongings, wealth, social status, fame or something entirely different to their lives. This, however, is the wrong approach. You don’t necessarily have to add something new to your life to enjoy the good life. Quite the contrary is the case. The good life does not consist of continuously chasing evermore. Instead, simplicity and the ability to draw happiness from what you already have can be integral aspects of a good life. This shift in perception can help you to start living the good life in this present moment, without being dependent upon external influences.Good living can be about living your own passion. Your passion is what you love to do every day because it gives you a sense of worth and fulfillment. This can be concentrated into your true life purpose, which is the key to real wealth on this earth. Use your passion in the most productive and universal way possible and you will discover the reasons behind your most important endeavors and goals. There is no such a thing as perfect, there is only perception. The idea of it is based on your own definition. Instead of always searching for perfection, strive for the things that satisfy your individual wants and needs.

The concept of living the good life includes the relationship dimension as well. Without it, it would not fully contribute to your happiness and fulfillment. Even more so, relationships are an integral part of a worthwhile life. Neither wealth nor social status can grant access to true friendship. Therefore, living the good life also consists of spending a significant amounts of your time with those that you love and enjoy being around. The good life is all about growing, developing and becoming stronger together, not alone. Thus, living the good life means different things to different people.  There is, however, a slightly ambiguous, mutual understanding.  “The good life” is the life that you would like to live broken down to its most basic form. It deals with the simple pleasures that make you happy, the compassionate deeds you perform, the personal goals you strive to achieve, the relationships you nurture and the legacy you leave behind.  Sincere personal fulfillment is generally the collective end result.
