**[We all need a purpose!!](https://www.pdfdrive.com/search?q=Power+of+concentration+&pagecount=&pubyear=&searchin=&em=)**

Purpose is what helps us get through life. Nihilism attacks this preposition because it supposes that life has no meaning and this can be a really divisive way of looking at life. Meaning in our lives can be construed from the planned structure of our days which is encompassed with a cumulative flow of events thus keeping our lives meaningful and full of purpose. This planning gives us a sense of control thus thrusting meaning to all the meaninglessness we encounter and feel momentarily.

When we are alienated from this structured and planned flow with which our lives thrive this threatens the meaningfulness derived from the way of life we are accustomed to and brings about feelings of anxiety and the existential crisis that comes along with that. The inherently dystopian nature of the times we are in that the COVID-19 pandemic has thrust us into has led to a state of continuous inactivity thus losing the structure and support systems that we can hardly thrive without.

While watching Flavia Tumusime's Youtube VLOG (Video Blog), she vividly described the workings of motherhood which to her was a new experience, one of the nuggets of wisdom she passed along was the fact that she didn't have control over the situation and once she became a mother everything about her life changed and she couldn't stick to her earlier schedule which changed drastically due to the responsibility thrust upon her.

The first step she used to remedy this situation was to embrace the change and come to terms with the fact that her status quo had changed, thus in relation to these uncertain times I would recommend that we embrace the change which entails a less structured and less busy day which leaves the better part of us feeling devoid of purpose.  
The understanding that we need to be versatile enough to change the way we structure our days is imperative to the upward trajectory we so innately desire and appreciate all the advantages that come along with not having to lose valuable time while commuting and ultimately making each minute count.
