21st Century Renaissance Man

The 21st century has seen advances in information sharing, and communication requiring people to have an amalgamation of skills, unlike any previous generations. In an era when the education system is producing more specialists in fields, everyone has more skills and aptitudes they use in everyday life. One of the most famous renaissance men is Leonardo da Vinci. In these new times, it is time for all of us to let that side shine and be resourceful. This blog is going to be the starting point to find out what base of knowledge not only I have, but as a way to leverage my research skills to not only offer my perspective but to search and find the reason or plausible explanation.


Amid all the chaos going on in the world today, it is times like this when
we need to all remain calm cool collected, as well as to adapt, improvise,
and overcome the challenges of today. In times like this, the innate fear of
the unknowing is the demon that is lurking in the shadows and chasing each of us in our everyday lives. I completely understand the fear of the unknown and having to adjust to the new reality that we are all facing every day, not
knowing who has what, when, where or how we may encounter the SARS2 COVID19 pandemic that is something that none of us can avoid. In times like this, we all need to remember to return to the basics and appreciate the small things in our everyday life that many of us have taken for granted.

The things that we can control in our everyday lives are making a point to
go for a walk, run, work out do something for our body at least 30 minutes of
physical activity can help reduce stress, this can be helpful in times like
this. Also, I understand that there is a thirst for knowledge and a craving to
understand what is going on in the world today. Shutting off the media at least one hour before you go to bed can make a world of a difference when it comes to helping with sleep. Also, take 30 minutes before sleep and clear your mind. Do some breathing exercises, take the time to focus on breathing relaxation, and do whatever it may take for you to relax and lower your heart rate.
Additionally, in current times, being able to reconnect with nature is one
of the greatest things any of us can do. Make a point every day of going outside to get some fresh air, walk, run, and exercise every day in some way shape, or form.

Being able to go out fishing at a local lake, the stream can help you reconnect to where your food comes from. Being able to plant a garden whether it is a herb garden, or a vegetable garden does something that allows you to source your food and become more self-reliant.

We need to control the small things in our lives that we can.
We can control when we wake up, and start the day off by completing the simple task of making our bed. This will give you a sense of accomplishment to get the day started by completing a simple task. these small everyday simple tasks can help you prepare yourself for a day of success. You can also make a point to block out some time of your choosing when we work out. when we go to bed. and remember that exposure to new media should be approached like food everything in moderation and overexposure can cause problems for us all.

Additionally, when it comes to taking on small everyday tasks it is like working out. Start small, and work your way up. Many people do not take the time to read and grow their knowledge base and work their minds. Over the years, many people I have spoken to have talked about not reading or not being able to sit down and focus on reading to advance and grow. Start small, set a goal to read five pages of a book that interests you every day. It makes takes time to get through the book, but five pages a day will get easier and easier. Then, start reading for fifteen minutes, when that becomes easier, take that to thirty minutes. Then build to reading an hour a day or more as you choose. Eventually, you will get to the point that reading a book a week or a book a month will grow and advance to whatever level you desire.
