 COVID-19 has brought a lot of uncertainties to many engineers' lives. Many engineers have either faced a job loss or fear-facing a job loss. EMI helps engineers become better leaders. Through these Monday morning motivators, they help you become the best person you can be. I'm Aditya Guthay and I'm excited to be the guest contributor for this week. Tony Robbins says, in times of great uncertainty, it's important to harness the power of focus and focus on things that you can be in control of. COVID-19 is about how you deal with uncertainty. Within a few days to weeks, how we do things in this world has completely shifted. You're not very new to uncertainties. In fact, if you're a software engineer and you believed with great uncertainty that a particular piece of code that you have written is going to do just fine in production, but after deployment, it didn't do just fine and instead broke the existing systems causing a lot of damage to your customers. What do you do in those scenarios? Do you panic or do you focus on things that you can be in control of? If you're facing any kind of uncertainty, whether it's feeding a job loss or a potential health risk, write down the list of things that you can be in control of. It could be liquidating some of your assets or upgrading your skill set or reaching out to people for potential new opportunities. Whatever it is, focus on things that you can be in control of because guess what? If it isn't COVID-19, it could be some kind of uncertainty that might throw your game.
