In life, no matter what you do, everyday you give 100% because you never know what is coming for you and never know what is next step right?
Learn from your mistakes. Do not fall for bad things. Don’t just let mistakes happen again and if it happens again you are not learning from the mistakes.
So learn, stay focused.
Don’t fall for bad things, because you never know what life will throw at you next, may be something very good and something huge and positive thing waiting for you.

I contracted with Covid infection, just before the second wave of the virus (delta variant) began to decline in the country. Since the symptoms which I got was similar to the symptoms of common cold, I did not think it could be a COVID symptom. It took a few days to realise, but by the time my health condition started to get affected and eventually I have to be admitted in the hospital.

You can't get to courage without rumbling with vulnerability.
“At the heart of daring leadership is a deeply human truth that is rarely acknowledged, especially at work: Courage and fear are not mutually exclusive. Most of us feel brave and afraid at the exact same time. We feel vulnerable. Sometimes all day long" [...]
