Your Mindset, Their Mental Health
“Like many other people, you may be working fewer hours because of a variety of efforts to slow the spread of COVID-19,” he says. “I understand the anxiety that may cause. Try to take advantage of the personal time you gain to do things that help ease anxiety and help you be ready to get back in action when it’s time: catch up on sleep and family time, eat better, and get some exercise.”
For those of you who are working, or just getting back to a full schedule, Griffin suggests being mindful of the fact that you may encounter more people with higher levels of anxiety than you may have at any other time in your career.

Stay Focused
One of the hardest things for anyone to do is stay focused. With attention focused on politics, COVID-19 and its effects, natural disasters, and personal challenges, it can feel hard to smile at your loved ones at the end of the day.
Security professionals must do their best to stay focused at all times, and often on more than one thing at a time. No matter where they work, what they have to do, and what their client is doing, staying focused helps them - as well as whoever and whatever they protect - stay safe.
If you are a security professional, Leumas Security Services' Founder and Rent-A-Cop Reboot co-author, Samuel Griffin, understands how hard it can be for you to stay focused. He also understands that you must figure out how to do it anyway.
