Take pride in being busy!
We may take pride in being busy. However, we can be busy due to many wrong reasons, such as; firefighting customer complaints, employee HR issues, rescuing bad projects, and undertaking manual labour where automation is so accessible. Most living beings on our planet...
It is about the ride called life!
Life moves on with the faith that the future will be brighter. There is light at the end of the tunnel, and it’s worth pushing ahead despite the struggles. We hold countless hopes, desires, and assumptions that the seeds we sow and nurture will grow into strong trees...
We are good, thank you!

Leave life alone, and it will complicate itself. When we are on autopilot and in the mad rush to satisfy society’s dumb norms, we do not help either. We complicate our life even further. For instance, We may not need more. We may not need to wait for weekends or...

Firefighting in business!

I have a long way to go!
My weaknesses hide behind my inability to take and stick with my decisions. My sufferings stem from being on autopilot and not being present now. My immaturity shouts out when I pretend to know it all. My foolishness manifests when I think I am controlling the stage...
