·      Economy: Almost 60% of the companies have been closed & India`s economy
                       has decreased by 40%.  But the coming of e-commerce sites have helped some of them to
                       start their business again.


                    · Mental problems and anxiety: Lock-downs and self-isolation have caused mental
                       problems and anxiety for many people. About 23% of Indians have been pushed to
                       depression and anxiety due to this pandemic situation.

                       Conclusion:
                                            In spite of all of these problems, we learnt some important morals and
                       values of life too in this lock-down. It changed our lives. Let`s hope for all these to settle
                       down faster.


                       Stay safe
                       Thank you

                                                        WHO AM I?


                Let's play a game of guessing a person. I will be giving you a few clues about the person. Try to figure
                out who that is. Shall we start our game?


                                                   The clues are:
                                                       1. Born on 31 July 1965 in Yate, England.
                                                       2. Rejected from college at age 17.
                                                       3. This  person's mother died from a disease, when the
                                                           person was at the age of 25.
                                                       4. Got married at age 27.
                                                       5. Got divorced at the age of 28 and was diagnosed with
                                                           severe depression.
                                                       6. Single parent living on welfare, at the age of 29.
                                                       7. Wanted to commit suicide at the age of 30, but directed
                                                           all of her passion into doing the one thing she could do
                       better than anyone else, and started to write.
                    8. Published her first book at the age of 31.
                    9. At the age of 35, she released 4 books and was named 'AUTHOR OF THE YEAR'.
                    10. At the age of 42, she sold 11 million copies of her new book, on the first day of release.

                Guessed who it is? I think so you did it. Yet, for people who didn't find who that was, let me tell you
                that it's JK Rowling. Just imagine what would have happened if she committed suicide at the age of
                30, instead of publishing the Harry Potter series?
                MORAL: NEVER GIVE UP. BELIEVE IN YOURSELF. BE PASSIONATE. WORK HARD.
                IT'S NEVER TOO LATE!
