<p>As the plague of Covid-19
continues its morbid crusade across the globe countries are rolling out
draconian measures in a bid to contain the marauding contagion and to arrest
the spread of the pandemic. In most countries, South Africa included, the shutdowns
have escalated from travel bans to the total temporary shutdowns of non-essential
mobility and business activities. Most industries and business are screeching to
an involuntary halt and most of us will for the first time in a long time, be
confined to our homes. The shutdown does not imply a total shutdown of productivity
and this applies on both macro and micro scales. Businesses have found tech savvy
ways of ensuring that productivity is sustained through a coterie of work from
home arrangements. On a macro scale, your life does not have to come to a grinding
halt. Besides the fact that you still have bills to pay, there is intrinsic
value to productivity.</p>

<h3> <b> 1. Break that bad habit </b> </h3>
<!-- /wp:html -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Perhaps this is one of the biggest outcomes you can emerge with
out of the 21 lockdown days. The buzz around 21 day challenges is not far-fetched.
</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>The idea that it takes 21 days to break a habit or to form
a new one is scientific. </strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>"Dr Maxwell Maltz wrote the bestseller Psycho-Cybernetics.  Originally a Plastic Surgeon, Maltz noticed that it took 21 days for amputees to cease feeling phantom sensations in the amputated limb. From further observations he found it took 21 days to create a new habit. Since then the '21 Day Habit Theory' has become an accepted part of self-help programs. Brain circuits take engrams (memory traces), and produce neuroconnections and neuropathways only if they are bombarded for 21 days in a row. This means that our brain does not accept? new? data for a change of habit unless it is repeated each day for 21 days (without missing a day)."  <a href="http://www.aristotle.co.nz/library/series.aspx?seriesId=61" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" aria-label="Aristole Blog (opens in a new tab)">Aristole Blog</a>.</p>

<p>Neurogenesis is the branch of science concerned with the
development of new cells every day and particularly the type that is potent to
reverse pathways formed by bad and negative thinking. &nbsp;For this reason, Dr. Caroline Leaf, a
communication pathologist and cognitive neuroscientist, presents a 21 Day
mental detox challenge in her Book “Switch on your brain”. </p>

<h3> 7. Improve your Critical Thinking</h3>
<!-- /wp:html -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>The fact about critical thinking is that many of us struggle with it plus, there is always room for improvement. </strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>What Is Critical Thinking?</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; “Critical thinking
is the intellectually disciplined process of actively and skillfully
conceptualizing, applying, analyzing, synthesizing, and/or evaluating
information gathered from, or generated by, observation, experience,
reflection, reasoning, or communication, as a guide to belief and action.” &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;– The Foundation for Critical Thinking (http://www.criticalthinking.org/)</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Part of the quest to hone your critical thinking skills is
reading widely (go as far and wide on the subject as possible), then read
wildly…which means that you go beyond the confines of the discipline (the box)
and get to consider insights out of the discipline (think outside the box). </p>

<p>Whatever you choose to do or choose not to do, the 21 days
will come to pass. Whether you invest the short season or not, the season will
be availed to you and it is entirely up to you to put it to great use and reap
something out of it. Remember the apt observation by Alice Walker: “Time moves
slowly, but passes quickly.” </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>One thing the Covid-19 crisis has taught is that things can
change pretty fast and tomorrow is not guaranteed at all. &nbsp;Therefore: “Whatever your hand finds to do, do
it with all your might, for in the realm of the dead, where you are going,
there is neither working nor planning nor knowledge nor wisdom.” (Ecclesiastes
9:10)</p>
