Getting a side hustle or alternative means of income is a lifesaver any time any day. Millions of people all over the world live their lives on a side hustle especially when their main job can’t meet all their needs.
As long as that side hustle does not interfere with your main job, why not? A side hustle now is like a mini-retirement plan. Something you can fall back on if you lose your job or decide to resign.
With the internet, you can learn new skills, such as cooking, photography, graphics and so on. They are all within your grasp.
On the other hand, the body needs rest to function properly. So for all who have craved for a vacation, the lockdown is the perfect time to eat healthy meals, sleep well, and exercise.
Do not put yourself under undue pressure to impress or seem productive. Just because someone has decided to pursue a side hustle this period does not mean you should do the same. Do whatever pleases you.
