It really works

We are what we are eating.. and what we are thinking.. Actually only what we are thinking.. The secret.. It really works.. The world is at your feet.. you get what you attract to yourself.. Yesssss it really works!

I remember planning my life back in 2009 and thinking I gotta get a job with this salary.. Guess what.. I got it.. With that exact salary.. Now I’m regretting why I didn’t ask for more.. hehehe

It’s simple first you gotta know what you want.. Pray to allah day and night for it.. Wish for it.. Think about it.. Sleep on it.. Wish it day and night.. And it all gonna happened.. Under Allah will..

Wanted a job to ensure enough cash flow for business.. With X salary.. 9 to 5.. Some place I don’t have to work really hard.. Some easy work.. So I can have time to innovate for business.. I’m getting there..

Recently I decided to shut down my business.. Due to.. Lack of legal status.. lack of funds.. Lost the opportunity.. But I believe shutting it down.. is only the start.. To start another better stronger more feasible one.. I got to attached to it.. Emotionally.. that I was taking the wrong decisions.. I know I should since it’s my baby.. Ten I was full of my self.. Thinking it’s been there since 2005.. It should go no where but up.. It’s gonna go up there.. Mark my words!

Now I believe in not rushing things around.. This business break is only a chance.. To get the things I always wanted.. More education.. Better skills.. Better and stronger cash flow.. More stability.. And most important stable growth rate.. All that by attracting it.. And by attracting the right things.. And attracting it the right way.. To help me do it..

Know what you want.. and attract it my friends..

Special thanks to @ma_yen6fi_noori for yanking it out my brains

You can manage stupidity, but it can’t manage you

Stupidity can be translated in so many forms insulting, insulting, and insulting. hehehe well I always say and believe in “everything is curable except stupidity” I have designed so many wall papers out of frustration describing stupidity in colors

La vie en vert.. I noticed that most of my stupidity wallpapers are in green hmmmm I love the color.. apple green.. Maybe I was trying to get out of stupid raw tangled brainiacs moods I got into

Intelligence is totally the opposite of it.. You already know that right? Riiight? Hehehehe How ever knowledge and ignorance are not representatives of smart and stupid.. Unless if one wanted to be ignorant by choice..

So to manage people with sufficient knowledge that don’t make them stupid.. It makes you stupid for not training them.. Sufficiently!.. On the other hand managing people that are holding information from their superior intentionally.. stupidity would be a nice word to categories them with.. Yet sharing all knowledge with managed team and they keep doing the same mistake over and over again.. That’s utterly dumpiness at it’s best.. Simply because that’s the definition of stupidity

How about if you were managed by a stupid manager.. You can’t walk into his/her office and say “sir/ma’am.. what we do is a total waist of resources and doing it over and over again is just a uncalled for” if your manager apologized and were open for new suggestion or solutions or quick temporary fixes and waiting for long term ones.. That would be cool great good you name it.. But what if s/he said “I’m aware of that and this the only way we can do it”.. But we… “No I told you that’s the only way we can and should do it”.. Does it end here??!!!

Not for me I got a quick fix for everything, and it’s not biochemical medicine

Well simply we can’t have classes and force everyone to be educated.. We might think of an extreme measure.. i.e. Public MiQ test and sterilizing whom over scores less than 110 on average hoping that within 3 generations we’d lose it

…. Again extreme!!

How about we educated those whom are willing to.. And conceder it as training costs.. start applying penalties for not complying.. And appraisals for meeting goals and setting new records.. Simple yes? No? Don’t know? Hehehehe

Well I wish life is that easy and human are as simple as this.. There would be a lot of “what if…”s that will force you to drop it off.. And then You start thinking Like.. maybe I’m the stupid who needs to be educated!

Well thats for managed staff.. What about being managed by one.. Again a quick fix!!.. Well I conceded it as a long term fix… An open door policy and a dynamic change management protocols.. Which can be easily applied.. IF YOU HAVE THE RIGHT PRIVILEGES!! If you don’t like me.. Ending with three alternatives.. wait and hope that one of you dies.. Either yourself or your manager.. Or simply do what I did with my employer.. I quit

Yet again quick fixes are like chain reactions.. I have stayed unemployed for so long.. That I made my business very successful.. And then oopps I did it again.. did the stupid act and got my self into another job.. *singing Britney spears song and doing the stupid dance in Egyptian farmer’s accent and moves”

My mom told me 2 stories just to make my life easier.. Thought of sharing them with you guys..

First.. Life is like a hair.. If both pulled it will snap.. If both layed.. It’ll fall.. Moral is one should be the smart end.. Pull when the other is laying and lay when the other isn’t.. I guess I never learned that.. I lost so many hairs that I’m bald now

Mom sounded like bruce lee telling that being water story.. Hehehe love you mom

Second.. There was a wise king whom were so enlightened.. and there was a well.. and all kingdom’s people knew that it’s water is poisoned.. If you drink from it u’d be stupid..

One harvest year was as dry and hard as my balled head.. So everyone except the wise king drank from that well.. Everyone was so stupid they were ruling and protesting against him.. Just because he is not as stupid as them selves.. Until one day he drank from it.. Moral is WHEN YOU BECOME A KING MAKE SURE THERE ARE SOME WATER LEFT FOR YOU!

*looking for the damn well*

How many bottles of water shall i drink?

Salam Y’All,

Few months ago, after i recovered from the 2010 ramadan accident. I decided to start working out, as I spent most of my time focused on my business, of which my health got the best of it.

Yasmin Abduljader or so called the love Guruwa (BTW she rocks, follow her on twitter @TheLoveGuruwa) was so patient to formulate a healthy life style specifically tailored to my needs. Believe it or not she is not a Doctor though she had an open heart bigger than any dietitian i have ever met. Not only that my favorite Dietitians Dalal Al Nukhailan, and Sara Al Kanderi gave me tips are parallel to @TheLoveGuruwa ‘s healthy life style. 

One key factor to her tailored life style is drinking water. You see our bodies are 70% made of water, and we live in a very hot region, if not very humid and dry. In the tailored program which I’m very grateful that she did for me. Yasmin stressed on water drinking habits as it is a main part of any healthy system, or diet. The benefits derived (from my personal experience) are:

  1. Staying Hydrated
  2. Flushing your digestion system
  3. Easier and shorter meal digestion intervals
  4. Helps up to 90% of losing water retention weight
  5. Balanced body metabolism 
  6. Continuos sleeping and less nightmares (so true)
  7. Reduced my insulin doses (I reduced my doses from 10cc to 6cc for short active insulin; consult your diabetelogist; my results may vary from yours

Now the question is, how many liters of water shall I drink? Yasmin suggested that i should drink 2.5 to 3 Liters per day, at first it was so easy i was thinking (2 large bottles of 1.5 liters). Application was harder than planning. I suffered to be honest keeping up with my daily target, Yasmin suggested this awesome iPhone app, its called waterlogged it is so awesome it even reminds you to drink water dose. For a While it was cool for me, as i got more busy moving to another office started to ignore that app for a while (sorry! -_-). While i was taking a shower I had a LIIIGHT BULB! (despicable me style) typical me (bright ideas only hit me while showering!).

The idea is simple, the day is 24 hours, assuming you sleep 8 hours of them (that if you are having a healthy life style) so that keeps us with 16 hours of daily activities. 16 hours are 960 mins; dividing daily targets (i.e. 3000mls for 3 liters) over 960 mins will tell us exactly how many ml we should drink per minute (3.125 ml/min). And then I wanted to know how many bottles per day and when shall i drink them!.

My house is filled with “eHHHem” brand which are 330 mls, and they have been my companion for so long, all I have to do is divide 330 over the ratio (3.125 ml/min) and it tells me how many minutes between each bottle (apx. 106 mins) thats the number i should plug into a continuous count-down timer so it would reminds me to drink. Then I wanted to know how many bottles per day so I’d plan my weekly purchases, also easily calculated; 960mins (16 activity daily hours times 60 mins) divided by 106mins which equals to apx. 9 bottles per day.

of course if you don’t bottled water of what so ever brand, you can always get a favorable glass or mug, measure its ml capacity and plug it in the formula.

GOT IT?! 

Well if you got lost in calculations and/or not in mood to do them NO WORRIES! I got you, Mubarak is here.

I made this little and simple EXCEL file on GOOGLE DOCs. All you need is to plugin your water daily target, and favorable bottle/mug/cup capacity and you will get 2 numbers; how many bottle/mug/cup per day and how many minutes between each bottle/mug/cup

Spread the Love!

حبيبتي وقرة عيني.. وصلت

الحمدلله الذي تتم بنعمته الصالحات.. عادت اليّ قرة عيني.. الوالدة حفظها الله.. للكويت من رحلة العلاج في المانيا.. بفضل وكرم ومَنِّ المولى عز وجل ثم دعائكم الصالح.. تكللت عملياتها بالنجاح.. اسأل العلي القدير ان يُتمم شفاؤها ويعجل فرج كربتها والمسلمون جميعا وان يحتسب كربتها في ميزان أعمالها.. الرحيم الغفور سبحانه هو ولي ذلك والقادر عليه..

اللهم اشفِ وارحم واغفر لسمر الخزيم وللمسلمين كافة
