I WAS IN PANIC MODE. Want to be honest with you all.

Going to grocery store and seeing it completely empty, no-cart, dozens of people on the lines - it doesn’t help.

Also, I was highly anxious as I saw many of my crew members getting cancellation texts for their future gigs. One of them, as I am handing his check, said “This may be last check I got in a long time. The just cancelled my next 2 gigs.” So despite that everyone is going to watch tons of content, us, the crew making those content will get affected. Some reading this post, bet their careers for passion of filmmaking, working in sets 14+ hours a day. This break may cost some their entire savings. 
Eli (elication ) listened to me calmly today, while I was expressing my worries for production industry “pausing”. He calmly reminded me that our great grandparents been through world wars and economic depressions…

Reminded me to BE GRATEFUL. I am physically fine sitting in front of him. Not in hospital. I have a healthy body, still have an intact mind. 
Reminded that we came here and started from bottom. Not a good time to panic.

I realize, I could use this forced few weeks as a moment to self-reflect, prioritize and accomplish some goals I postponed. 
Do you have some goals and TO DO’s that you were delaying? What are you planning to do while you stay at home?
