Enhance Your Cognitive Skills During The Coronavirus Outbreak by AbdulAkpan: 6:03pm On Mar 23, 2020
Lingo Africa, the foremost human capital development platform in Abuja, Nigeria is particularly interested in improving our readers’ cognitive skills for career advancement during the coronavirus outbreak. It is our plan to lend as much support as we can to everyone in our community – so, they can effectively boost their career advancement, even though a lot of them are working remotely, as the coronavirus continues ravaging cities around the world.

Cognitive skills are related to thought processes. Your ability to solve problems and retain important information as well as learning for work flexibility and achievement are important aspects of cognitive skills and this article will help you to gain control of these while the world currently battles coronavirus.

Think back to when the world was not battling any kind of virus (it might seem like a long time ago), but just think about it for a minute. You will notice that at that time, you were less worried and had to undergo less work stress.

Well, we want to take you back to that state of mind, where you did not have to scour every news channel looking for updates on COVID-19 or being agitated about the virus while trying to earn a living.

So, as you work, whether in person or remotely, try to enhance your cognitive skills through Cognitive Flexibility. This skill, if perfected, is good for helping you multitask. It is a concept that gives professionals the ability to transition from one train of thought to the other.

This skill cannot be overemphasized for professionals who work in a fast-paced environment, even remotely. How do you master this?

Do you like to socialize? Do you like to go to the gym or do routine exercises at home? How about changing and switching up your daily routine? These are all creative ways you can enhance your cognitive flexibility, which will improve your cognitive skills.

We once had a client who wanted to improve her cognitive skills after she just dealt with losing a loved one, and we helped her do so by introducing her to performing yoga exercises as opposed to her regular cardio exercises.

After the scheduled period, she was better at handling her emotions and anxiety and became stronger and more capable at her job, which was affected by her loss.

We understand that right now, a lot of professionals are working from home, adjusting to the psychological differences as well as wondering how much effect the coronavirus will have on their finances. It is important to get rid of anxiety and replace with a sense of calm. Cognitive skills help with this.

Another way to do this is to sign up for online courses and workshops using Udemy, edX, LinkedIn Learning, and others. You can also read books, either hard copies or eBooks. All these, help you improve your state of calm and help you think logically about the coronavirus outbreak. This is important.;. so as not to get carried away by the many false information circulating around.

In this time of the coronavirus plague, we also advise that you think unconventionally. When you are forced to adopt other ways of thinking, try doing the opposite – this helps to open up your mind and increase your capacity for doing your job.
