My Apology: A Big Axiom

Image
Plato’s “Apology” gave the story of Socrates and explained the role he played in Plato’s life, one of the greatest Greek philosophers. But the writing wasn’t meant to apologize publicly to the people of Athens, his hometown where the root of wisdom and Greek philosophy begot, rather, it was based on the description of certain events that have occurred in his life and his teacher, Socrates. But unlike Plato’s, Mohiddeen’s Apology is meant to apologize to the all and sundry for all that had happened. Therefore, I, Mohiddeen, publicly apologize to everyone whom I have hurt, insulted (if any), or criticized by words or actions with or without my knowledge. Moreover, I have forgiven you all for wronging me –as we live together, we must have wronged ourselves in one way or the other. As Williams Durrant quote says, “Forget mistakes. Forget failures. Forget everything except what you’re doing and do it.” So, we should always forgive and forget. Well, I am the kind of person who believes...

Watch, Read and Learn: The Untold Story of Steve Jobs

Image
  From the first day I set my eyes on the #LabarinaSeries, I thought it would be an amazing film that would deliver some special lessons. Recently, I have come to understand the similarities between the stories of Sumayya (the fictional character of the series) and Steve Jobs, the co-founder of Apple, Inc. In the film, Sumayya’s attempts of meeting her biological father are always thwarted by her mother, because they do not know his whereabouts for several years. So, those scenes quickly remind me of the story of Steve Jobs and his biological father, Abdulfatah Jandali. Despite being a follower of his trends, I’ve never watched a single clip of him mentioning his real father, even though I knew that he’s a Syrian professor of Economics and Political Science. But frankly speaking, Steve never wanted to meet his biological father or reveal their relationship publicly, not because his maternal grandpa never liked his daughter’s relationship with Jandali, but because he had never contr...

Digital Transformation of Business: What Does It Mean to Digitize Your Business?

Image
In an increasingly technology-focused world, the demand for businesses to digitize has grown dramatically. So, what does it mean to digitize your business? Essentially, it means incorporating technology into your business operations to increase efficiency, enhance customer experience, and boost sales. This could mean developing an app for your business, transitioning into eCommerce, offering mobile payment options, and more. The goal of digitizing your business is to keep up with the rapidly changing economy by offering your customers more ways to access your business, cut costs, and streamline daily operations. Therefore, the method(s) you choose to digitize your business can vary based on your needs. For example, if you book consultations with clients via phone or in person, incorporating online scheduling through your website or via mobile app can help you book for clients and, in turn, increase sales. Or, if your business currently relies on a paper filing system, transitioning eve...

When The Calm Heart Was Desolated!

Image
  Let me start with Sigmund Freud’s quote: “Unexpressed emotions will never die. They are buried alive and will come forth later in uglier ways.” At the beginning of history, a calm heart was broken; even when Freud’s aphorism was put into action to obliterate the doubts of the shadow of dreams. Later on, it was depressed, stressed and wasn’t impressed at all. And knowing that when innocent and vulnerable hearts are deserted, they would fall in solitudes. One modern thinker said, “when the heart is broken, the emotional pain is similar to physical pain.” Seneca said, “We suffer more often in imagination than in reality.” Leonardo da Vinci added, “tears come from the heart and not from the brain.” Then, Cato the Younger, one of the Roman Statesmen said, “in doing nothing, men learn to do evil.” Hence, Mohiddeen Ahmad emphasized the axiom by giving this clarification: “broken hearts usually lose faith and sympathy and are more likely to adopt malice and loveless life.” Mohiddeen...

Being a Unique!

Image
  Are you unique? What does it take to be unique? Wait, what does that mean? Let’s be frank and say “speciality” means absolute uniqueness. But if this seems unobvious, then we need to grasp the concept in the first place by placing some examples. Prof.Einstein formulated his theory of “special relativity” before placing the “general” theory on the ground. Shall we call that inductive and deductive forms of reasoning? Or shall we revere Einstein for being unique? He was indeed a great genius whose ingeniousness changed our modern understanding of this universe. Hence, Galileo was among the greatest scientists of all time that influenced Einstein and was the first person to invent a telescope, as well as being the first scientist to have discovered how the earth revolves around the sun. Then, scientifically, Charles Darwin was the first scientist to have changed the basic conception of natural evolution. Then, Tesla, Planck, Graham Bell, Edison, and Franklin changed the method of t...

The Beginning of History: How Negative Thoughts Changed My Mind

Image
To spell SCHOOL , I mistakenly wrote SCHOOL . The tutor said it was wrong, I shouldn’t have interchanged the position of the double “O’s”; so it is always SCHOOL , not SCHOOL —the same way it is DOOR , not DOOR , and APP not APP. Note that interchanging the position of the same letters in a word results in failure. After getting this, I went back and start practising how to follow this principle without failing. The first time I tried spelling ATTITUDE, but I got it wrong. Another tutor says I made a great mistake, the second letter ‘T’ shall come first before its neighbour ‘T’, so I shouldn’t change their position. I believed I was wrong, and then I went to relearn the steps again. The third time, I locked myself up in my dark and hot room trying to learn it by all means. I gathered dozens of books, papers, lecture notes and other materials trying to grasp them to the best, in order to make what my tutor wanted me to. At first, I began to discover the error —how do I do it without int...
