Hello Friends! 

I asked myself this week, 'What is my biggest fear?' The answer is very reflective for me when I deep dive into it. 'Mine is the fear of wasting my full potential and dying mediocre.' That answer clarifies all my life intentions. I don't want to waste my potential, and on the day of judgment, I will regret my mediocrity. I have observed my progress graph of the skills I have learned so far, so here is the list, from being an average boy to becoming a lifelong learner.

Communication Skills: One of my limiting beliefs was that my communication was my weakness, and I could only improve it, but I have recently seen a 1000 percent improvement in my life, from talking to listening, from the fear of writing to becoming a newsletter writer and preparing myself to write a book. that all happen to practice and reflect. Little tip: read books and apply each learning in your life.

Relationship Building: I was very shy and hesitant to introduce myself to others. That was my initial understanding, but after 2017, I broke this stigma from my personality. I attended events and tried to engage with people. During that time, I started reading different articles and watching YouTube videos.

Recommendation: How to Talk to Anyone

Meditation and Visualization: I first introduced meditation in 2017 during a training session, and it was quite awkward at first because I didn't feel much. After a few years, I started practicing visualization and got inspired by athletes who use it to improve their performance. However, anxiety and overthinking hindered my progress. I then began practicing breathing exercises and, during a fellowship, gained clarity on the power of meditation for my mental health and focus. I started reading and watching material on meditation, and for the last 14 months, I have been practicing meditation daily, experiencing guided meditation, and participating in various programs. The app 'AURA' has been instrumental in maintaining consistency in my meditation and visualization journey.

Mental Health: I used to make fun of mental health professionals and felt uncomfortable when the topic was brought up. My coping mechanism was to bully the person starting the conversation, hoping it would change. I later recognized my own patterns, and as the saying goes, 'Once you know, you can’t unknow.' I read my patterns and sought professional help to understand my triggers and how to deal with them. Healing takes time, and we can't erase the effects of traumatic events; we must accept them and take responsibility for moving forward. Self-awareness helps us know when to guard ourselves and identify people who genuinely respect our vulnerability. I consider myself lucky to have a survival toolkit that I've applied to my life.

This week, I applied a valuable piece of wisdom: if someone comes back to you, don't try to humiliate them; instead, give them permission and see what intention they bring. If someone is genuinely interested in you, they will open up.

I am not a therapist or a life coach, but I believe that if I can help someone by listening and providing support in their lives, they can do better. I have observed that some people only seek validation and are not looking for solutions. When someone comes to me asking for advice, I try my best to assist them. Some people approach you to see what benefits they can gain, and when you fail to meet their expectations, they leave silently, so don’t take on your heart.

Learning to spend time without expectations is a valuable lesson. Just think about “what our lives would look like without expectations.” 

This is the question for you all this week.

Love,

Ammar
