• Izikhathi Zethu Ezinzima
• Lokho Esilahlekile
• Ukuhlangana Ngokukhandleka Nokuboshwa
• Okokhelekayo kwengqondo
• Izixazululo Zobuciko Obulahlekile

Lezi zikhathi ezingajwayelekile zokuthathelwa impahla ekhaya futhi kude nemikhuba zidala umonakalo ngezindlela eziningi. Abantu bathola ukuthi banokukhiqiza okuncane, ubuciko, nokucabanga. Abacabangi kahle noma ngokwakhayo. Imibono emisha ayigelezi. Abakwazi ukubhala, ukudweba, noma ukudala umculo. Ngokuzenzakalelayo bahamba ngemisebenzi nezabelo zomsebenzi.

Izikhathi Zethu Ezinzima

Sinokungena kwabanye njengoba sabelana ngendawo ebonakalayo. Isikhathi sisodwa kunzima ukusithola. Abantu abadala babhekana nokunakekelwa kwezingane nokufunda izingane zabo esikoleni, konke lokhu ngenkathi besebenza imisebenzi yabo kude futhi kaningi egumbini elilodwa.

Sikhathazekile ngokubamba i-COVID, ukuthi ikusasa lizoletha ini, nokuthi siziphatha kanjani ngokwengqondo nangokomzwelo izimo zamanje. Sizibuza imibuzo eminingi esikhathazayo: Kuzophela nini lokhu? Ngilahlekelwe yini? Yini izingane zami ezihlupheke ngayo? Ngabe sizofana phansi komgwaqo?

Sibona ukungafani okuncane, ngisho ne-claustrophobia, efulethini elilodwa noma endlini, singayi ezindaweni, futhi singaboni umndeni nabangane enyameni.

Lokho Esilahlekile

Imiphumela yalezi zikhathi ukuthi siphelelwa amandla okucabanga nokwakha kabusha. Imibono emisha ayiveli. Umthombo womile. Asikwazi ukucabanga noma ukubhala ngobuhlakani. Sizizwa sisebhange lenkungu, sinemicabango ehlanganisiwe nehlukanisiwe. Imihlaba yethu izizwa inciphile. Izinto ezincane njengokuthola ukudla zithatha ukubaluleka okukhulu nobungozi.

Ukuhlangana Ngokukhandleka Nokuboshwa

Sithola izimo ezifanayo ngesikhathi sobhadane kubantu abagxile kakhulu ekuqeqeshweni okunzima nasemisebenzini –– njengesikole sezokwelapha kanye namakamelo okuphuthumayo –– noma nalabo abasebenza ngama-rigs kawoyela amasonto ngasikhathi sinye. Sizwa imibiko efanayo evela kwabasebenza ngokweqile, ama-CEO, kanye nosomabhizinisi abasebenza amahora angama-70 ngesonto noma ngaphezulu. Abantu ababoshiwe babika nobunzima obufanayo ngokufana kwansuku zonke. Laba bantu babika ukuthi balahlekelwe ngumkhiqizo namandla abo okusimamisa ubuqambi kanye nokuvuselela.

Okokhelekayo kwengqondo

Kungani abantu abathathelwa impahla ngesikhathi salo bhubhane, labo abasebenza ngokweqile ngamahora amaningi okusebenza, nalabo ababoshiwe balwa nokwehluleka okufanayo ukuba nobuchule? Ukuqonda lokhu, ake sibheke ukusebenza kwengqondo njengokufana nendlela injini esebenza ngayo. Injini idinga uphethiloli ukuze isebenze, futhi abantu badinga uphethiloli wengqondo ukuze basebenze emazingeni okudala nawokufeza.

Uphethiloli wengqondo uqhamuka kokuhlangenwe nakho okusha — ubusha, nokuphumula – ungenzi lutho. Sithola futhi uphethiloli we-psychic ku-adventure yokuphinda okuhlangenwe nakho kwakudala kabusha. Lokhu kuhilela ukuphuma ngaphandle kwezindonga zethu ezine.

Sidinga isikhathi nendawo sodwa nokuhlangana nabantu ngenkulumo nokuphumula. Sidinga ukuya ezindaweni ezintsha futhi sivakashele izindlu ezindala –– umtapo wolwazi, izitolo, izindawo zokudla, izinkundla zemidlalo, izindawo zomculo namapaki.

Sidinga ukulala ngokwanele, okuseqophelweni eliphezulu. Sidinga amathuba okuphuma –– ukuzinza izingqondo zethu futhi kungabikho lutho olwenzekayo. Ukufakwa kukaphethiloli owanele we-psychic kulingana nokukhishwa kwemicabango yokudala nokuziphatha kanye nomuzwa wenhlalakahle.

Izixazululo Zobuciko Obulahlekile

Sihlushwa ukufana okuchobozayo ezimpilweni zethu ngesikhathi sobhadane. Siwuthola kanjani uphethiloli wengqondo yethu lapho sihlukaniswa ngokufana kwansuku zonke? Impendulo ilele ekuziphoqeleleni ukuba uphume ebunyeni bakho.

Suka ezindongeni zakho ezine. Phumela ngaphandle uhambe ngezinyawo noma uhlale epaki. Ngena emotweni uthathe uhambo losuku emadolobheni aseduze. Jabulela intwasahlobo eza enyakatho Nenkabazwe. Hlala ngaphandle ufunde. Hamba izintaba noma udobe. Yakha okuthile ngaphandle. Tshala ingadi.

Shayela uye kuzo zonke izindawo zakho ozithandayo futhi ukhumbule ngezikhathi zakho ezedlule ukuzwa umculo, ukubona imidlalo, ukudla ngaphandle kulezo zindawo. Thatha ukudla okukhiphayo, udle emotweni yakho, noma ube nepikinikini. Hlangana nabangane epaki, ugcine ukuhlangana nabantu, futhi ugqoke imaski.

Uma uhlala nabanye, hlela usuku noma kusihlwa okunengqikithi ukuze wonke umuntu agqoke imvunulo futhi afane nemvunulo ngokulungiselela ukudla okuhambisanayo –– Ubusuku base-Italiya noma iMexico, i-Asia, iSpanish, noma iThai. Hlela ubusuku lapho izingane ziphekela abazali nabazali zihlala ngaphandle kwekhishi ngokuphelele futhi ziphumule kwenye indawo.

Beka eceleni amahora amaningana lapho unesikhathi wedwa lapho kungekho muntu ongakukhathaza. Ukuhweba ngokwenza lokhu ngelungu ngalinye lomndeni. Chitha lesi sikhathi uwedwa ulele ungadlile, udweba, ufunda noma ulele. Yenza noma yini ekuqabulayo futhi ikuvuselele kabusha.

Ngemuva kokuzama ezinye zalezi zinto, kufanele uzwe inhlansi ethile yokubuya kwakho okudala, ukuzethemba kwengqondo oku-spunky okunophethiloli omusha nokondleka. Ungahle ube nemibono yokudala nekhiqizayo engqondweni yakho. Akungabazeki ukuthi uzovuselelwa ngokwengqondo.
