During the past 15 days, I have had many people around me contract COVID-19. Folks in multiple parts of the US, Europe, and Brazil.
Fortunately, all were vaccinated and no severe cases, although I have observed two cases of “long-covid”, which does seem a bit scary, especially given the brain fog that many talks about.
I was looking at the numbers this morning and was surprised that yesterday we had over 100,000 registered infections in the US.
A similar number that 12 months ago would have been extremely alarming.
Like many diseases, we have finally adapted and learned how to live with yet another challenge.
Human resilience is fantastic. I am thankful for the fact that I have not caught anything, despite traveling extensively.
Have a blessed weekend.
The busier you are, the more you must stop and slow down. Instead of instant happiness, search for peace. Happiness fades rapidly. Peace can be permanent.
I spent 3.5 months in Brazil during COVID. Unfortunately, Brazil is still a very unorganized country. The devil is in the details.
In today's episode, I chat with Rodrigo Teijeiro, founder of RecargaPay, a leading mobile payments fintech in Brazil that has reached more than 3,5M users.
