    8 Lessons from the Book  “The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People” by Stephen Covey

    June 3, 2025 /

    There’s one self-development book that has profoundly shaped the way I think of life, success, and productivity. The book is “The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People” by Stephen R. Covey. Covey’s self-help tome has become widely popular and influential in the modern age since its 1989 publication, translated into over 40 languages, and it has become a classic.  When I read this book during college, I had an epiphany about how a productive, effective person could be, and it created a framework for personal and professional success based on seven fundamental habits.  Stephen Covery’s book, “The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People“ When I first read the book, I…

    8 Feng Shui Tips to Improve Our Home and Life

    April 9, 2025 /

    Our home reflects our inner subconsciousness and aspirations. In Feng Shui, a house represents a cohesive unit where all rooms work together, much like the organs in our bodies, which are interconnected and interdependent. Our living space often reflects our inner state. The way we manage our home tells a story about our thoughts and feelings. When I started exploring Feng Shui, I realized how different energies can impact us daily. Have you ever noticed how certain places can lift your mood, making you feel calm and inspired, while others leave you feeling uneasy? Feng Shui helps us become aware of these energies and encourages us to create spaces that…

    8 Money Habits of the Successfully Rich: Insights from “The Millionaire Next Door”

    March 25, 2025 /

    I’ve always been curious about the money habits of successful, wealthy people. Often, these habits are what lead them to become extremely rich. We need specific habits to help us succeed and build our wealth to achieve our financial goals and we can adopt some of these effective practices by learning from those who are already successful. One of my favorite books is “The Millionaire Next Door,” by Dr. Thomas J. Stanley and Dr. William D. Danko. This book is based on extensive research they conducted on millionaires over many years. They spoke with more than 500 millionaires in personal interviews, and their findings revealed many surprising habits among these…

    8 Ways to Create and Define Our Goals Using Imagination

    March 13, 2025 /

    IIn 1979, a study was done with graduating Harvard MBA students to determine whether they had written down their goals for the future and made plans to achieve them. The results showed that only 3% had written down their goals, 13% had goals but hadn’t written them down, and 84% had no specific goals. In 1989, researchers discovered that the 13% who had goals earned twice as much as the 84% who didn’t. Even more impressive was the 3% who had written down their goals; they were making ten times more on average than the other 97% combined.

    Right now, American educational institutions are in the crossfire of heated protests related to the Israeli-Pakistani conflict. What lies in these protests is deep overzealousness rife with polarization, incivility, and a growing dissenting voice that threatens to unravel the fabric of American public discourse. What’s happening to American society? The book “The Coddling of the American Mind” by Greg Lukianoff and Jonathan Haidt offers many thought-provoking explorations into the rise of what they termed “safetyism.”‘  In this blog, we uncover the ideas of this compelling book, revealing the unforeseen repercussions of a culture steeped in protectionism and the call to reclaim the lost art of intellectual resilience.

    The Power of Forgiveness: 8 Reasons Why We Should Forgive Ourselves and Others

    The act of forgiveness is a powerful and meaningful endeavor. Letting go, rekindling connections, and embracing love, trust, and peace may seem difficult to achieve. However, forgiveness offers us the inner peace we deserve. For many of us, it is challenging to give another chance to someone who has hurt us; we often try to protect ourselves from the pain associated with those memories. During this holiday season, it’s important to recognize that holding onto pain limits our ability to enjoy the moments of love and joy around us. As we return home for the holidays, events like Thanksgiving and Christmas can bring mixed emotions. Some may experience anxiety or…

Keeping a daily diary or journal is a habit that many renowned men and women have made throughout history.  A journal is a form of personal record keeping of events, experiences, observations, and even lessons learned, done regularly. Some forms of journals include a personal diary or journal, a work journal, or an academic journal.  I started my journaling journey a decade ago using a paper journal, a Moleskine, and now converted to digital notes and a small notebook. Moreover, my journaling practice has served as a place to self-reflect, document my life, and…
