It will be funny how multifaceted human character can be.
The reason why people pleasing isn't a cool thing, because hey! You are one person with different attitudes towards different people and circumstances. Leave it or love it.
They can't all say the exact same thing about you.
To some, you're good. To some you're terrible. To some, you’re still that simple, cute person.

I woke up to a minor asthma attack this morning, and amid the discomfort, a thought crossed my mind with a little smile. My maid was curious why someone who had just nearly faced death would be smiling, so I shared my thought with her. It was a simple yet profound realization that gave me a new perspective on life.

I thought about how swiftly things can go from bad to worse, and then end. Witnessing someone else's near-death experience can make everything you cherish—your children, spouse, parents, extended family, friends, job, skin, property, even your phone—seem both meaningful and meaningless in the blink of an eye. Everything can become someone else's in no time.

We can’t be certain we’ll achieve all our goals or attain success despite our hard work. What we can be certain of is that our time will eventually end, whether near or far.

In everything I've experienced, I firmly believe that my Creator is merciful. His mercy surpasses His anger, and He does not judge people or situations superficially as we humans often do. At every point, in life or death, He will always be merciful to me.

I wasn’t scared because I trust that even if my life had been lived terribly, my Creator, who created everything with purpose, will not take me until my purpose is fulfilled 😊. So, if it had happened this morning, it would simply mean that my purpose had been fulfilled.

I would meet Him knowing I did the best I could, and even if it was just a little, I did it with a smile . I will be assured that my purpose made a difference, maybe not so much, but little on Earth.
May we all have the opportunity to live with purpose until the end. May we all meet our Lord in peace.
Aameen

Smile!
Even in the face of adversity, smile. You are here for a reason, and nothing happens without its reason. So, smile 😊

When people say they are building their resume, I ask;
1) Should you build your resume.
2) Should you build yourself
3) Or Build both.

I hope you understand, in a nutshell.

I usually say, that the journey to self-discovery is the most exciting, rewarding, and stressful.

While discovering oneself helps in knowing one’s direction in life. It also speeds up growth.

There three types of people surrounding you in your journey to self-discovery:
1. Those who criticize your growth.
2. Those who sees your growth as a threat.
3. Those who sees your growth as a source of inspiration

Meta stepped up with WhatsApp in-message instant video.

Like you normally send voice notes, you can send a short video placing your finger on the camera icon in your messaging page for some seconds, then record.

Why am I discussing this? 👇👇👇

While you're still holding onto your yesterday knowledge, it will be a surprise to you that what you've known gets outdated quickly nowadays.

The things that helps people standout at workspace or in their careers generally this days, is flexibility.

“Being flexible in learning new things, while gaining new experiences.”

There's no journey,
more exciting,
more demanding,
and more rewarding,
than the journey to self-discovery.

The Seven Promises to Make to Yourself:

Not to pay more than once
For a past mistake.

Not to mourn more than once
A past heartbreak.

Not to define myself more than once
By a past version of me.

Not to speak more than once
Words that I do not wish to become my reality.

Not to take more than once
Criticism from those who do not celebrate me.

Not to count more than once
What is unworthy of being a problem for me.

And not to fear more than once
What will be handled by the future version of me.
