JUST START!


I have noticed something very interesting about ants from careful study and close observation.

It is that ants don't need a commander to tell them to get started. Ants have no leader to tell them what to do; they just seem to know what to do and when to do it.
That is what I call initiative, which has become a scarce commodity in so many places today.
There are people who do what is right and what needs to be done without being told; these are excellent people but they are few.
There are people who do what is right when you tell them. These are good people but also few in number.
There are people who will never do what needs to be done no matter how many times you tell them. It is a pity that the world is filled with a majority of such people.
The man or woman who has made tremendous progress in life and career actually had to begin from somewhere. Such people made up their minds at one point to do what needed to be done. They started something.
A wise man once said, "The beginning is the most important part of the work."
The secret of success is hidden in doing something tangible and profitable at all times. But the truth is that you don't win if you don't begin. You don't get to record victory if you don't start.
There is practically no hope of winning or succeeding if you don't decide to begin something in life.
Don't be afraid of taking small steps. Most people don't succeed because they are too afraid to even try. They don't take any steps due to the fear of failure.
Winning starts with the beginning, and the beginning starts with a single action.
Small things can make a big difference; therefore do all that it takes to be successful in little things.
Do something, don't worry about the ultimate goal at first; just take the steps that take you past the starting point. Soon you will get to a point of no return.
Don't wait for people to push you or beg you before you do what you ought to do. Once you realize what needs to be done. Go ahead and do it.
Start from somewhere. You don't climb a ladder from the top but from the bottom.
Start something where you are right now and it will pave way for you to reach that enviable height. #career #work #success #people #leader

The Painful Reality of Life: When the Rain Stops, the Umbrella Becomes a Burden

Life often teaches us some of its harshest lessons through the simplest of metaphors. Consider the umbrella, a faithful companion during a storm. It shelters us, keeps us dry, and provides comfort against the elements. But once the rain ceases, that very umbrella, so crucial moments ago, becomes a cumbersome burden. This transition captures a painful truth about loyalty and human relationships: when the benefits cease, so too does the loyalty. In our lives, many people flock to us not for who we are but for the value we bring and the benefits they can derive from us. They thrive on the opportunities, support, and advantages we offer. As long as we are useful, as long as we can provide shelter from life's storms, we are cherished and needed. But when the rain stops—when the benefits diminish—these same people often disappear, leaving us to ponder the true nature of our connections. This realization can be incredibly disheartening. We yearn for genuine relationships, for loyalty that...

My 96-Hour Goose Chase

A few days ago, I embarked on a journey I never imagined I would experience. It all started with a simple goal: to clear a small debt that had been weighing on me. I thought that taking a small loan would be the best solution to get back on my feet and settle everything. Little did I know that this decision would lead me into a 96-hour goose chase that cost me time, money, and trust. I began my search for a loan online, and after some browsing, I came across a Finance company that seemed legitimate. I reached out to them, eager to resolve my situation. After completing all the necessary forms on their website, they informed me that my credit score was low and, therefore, I wouldn't be approved for the loan unless I paid an upfront amount equal to one month's repayment (450 AED). They assured me that this amount would be refunded once the loan was processed and credited to my account. Naively, I rushed to the ATM to deposit the requested amount. Here's a breakdown of what fo...
