Here’s the third interview with radio DJ Krazy Kevin. You’ll hear us talk about the “24 reasons” you should exercise. Poor guy had a soar throat but did the whole segment with the usual enthusiasm.
Here’s what else you’ll learn:
- What to do before you start exercising
- The reason you need to ask yourself “why”
- What [...] [...more]
For those of you who don’t know him, Krazy Kevin is a Bahrain celebrity Radio DJ. To be honest in the past I’ve not been that fond of him. I don’t mean personally (as I’ve never met him), I just didn’t like his silly antics on the radio. He does things likes sing songs, tell [...] [...more]
It’s Thursday evening, and a group of us are hanging out at a friend’s house. We don’t do it often enough, but when we get together we really enjoy it. We’ve been friends since high school. We have very different backgrounds and careers, but we share a strong love for one another.
One of the guys [...] [...more]
When I say “manipulation” I don’t mean it in a bad way. The concepts I’m about to share with you in and of themselves are neither good or bad, it depends on the user and his or her objectives. Of course, I’d only want you the use the techniques I’m about to share with you [...] [...more]
I’m going through a period where a lot of synchronistic events are happening to me. See the last blog post about this here. This week I had another synchronistic thing happen to me. For the last few days Surah Al-Sharh has been on my mind ( ألم نشرح لك صدرك). Specifically the Ayah (فإن مع [...] [...more]
2009 was a particularly tough year for me. I’ve had so many challenges from so many areas I almost (only almost) feel sorry for myself.
I’ve had several crisis to deal with, including taking one of my parents to an emergency room, and several weeks later one of my children. And a few other nasty surprises [...] [...more]
It’s worth mentioning that there is no one right way to run a business, just like there is no one way to do anything. I was reminded of this point when I was reading the lastet Forbes 400 list. The Forbes 400 is a list of the 400 richest people in America, and what’s interesting [...] [...more]
I'm a firm believer in synchronicity. This is a term coined by Carl Yung, it means a meaningful coincidence that has a low probability of being a random or chance event. A few weeks ago I was speaking to a magazine editor who asked me if I had heard of the property magazine Aqar. I told him I had never heard of it (we have LOTS of magazines in Bahrain now). A day later the magazine shows up on my door step! It was being [...more]
A few weeks ago I wrote a post on my seven favourite productivity tools. Today I want to talk about the power of mind mapping, another tool I like to use frequently.
Mind maps were invented by a guy called Tony Buszan. You can read more about him here. According to his website a mind map [...] [...more]
I juggle a lot of balls in my life, and I mean a LOT. I’m a bit of a perfectionist and usually put 110% effort into whatever I’m doing. I also try to lead a “balanced lifestyle” as much as possible. Though I’m always super-busy I make a point of being an active father, a [...] [...more]
