In some ways, the pandemic gave us a chance to relook what we believed to be musts. From big events like the Olympics to family events, and how we worked, it had a significant impact in almost all parts of the world.

As we opened up over the last couple of months, the office has made its return, sporting events are back, conferences and meetings are back, and it seems that, we are back to where we started. It appears as if we were just hiding until the storm blew over, and we could not wait to restart what we parked during the pandemic.

We might look and say that nothing has changed, and that we are back on square one. That the pandemic has not taught us lasting lessons. But it probably led to a small shift, to help us choose what is essential, and cancel the bad forever. And that may be enough of a step to tomorrow.
