You don’t have to build confidence before taking action. You build confidence by taking action.
Standing still breeds rumination and seeds self-doubt. Motion fuels progress and elevates efficacy.
Never let doubts about your ability undermine your faith in your ability to learn.
When leaders fail to explain why they rejected suggestions, we stop making them.
Good explanations do more than give reasons. They express respect.
We don't have to get our way to appreciate having a say. Showing care makes us feel valued—and motivates us to speak up again.
قـولـوا لنـتن ياهو قف
أفرطـت قـتلا يا خـرِف
لم يسلم الطفل الرضيع
ولا الخديج من القصِفْ
الشيخ مات مع العجوز
ولم تبدِ حزنا أو أسَـف
هل شاركوا في المحرقةْ
أم انـت إنـسـان صَـلِـف
إن كـان جدك قد ظُلم
غـزة ليسـت كولوموف
كـبرت مبادرة السـلام
لم تصغِ إليها وتعترف
#القدس و #غزة
Aiming for the best is a recipe for misery. The problem isn't high standards—it's always looking for better alternatives.
There's no such thing as a best job or best apartment. There's only a good fit for you.
A key to happiness is accepting options that meet your standards.

إذا اصبحت حياةُ الناس ضـيقةََ
يحاصر الروحَ فيها الجوع والألمُ
خيارها أن تعيش هونا وتـشريدا
أو أن تموت ويبقى بعدها الحُلُمُ
دعوها تختار حيث العيش يرضيها
ولا تقـولوا يـرافق موتْها الـندمُ
شتان من يمشي خوفا وثوبه كفنُ
أو من يرى اللحدَ قصرا فيه يُحترمُ
#فلسطين و #القدس و #غزة
#القدس قِبلـتنا برغم أنوفكم
وإن زوَّر الـتاريخ جاني ومجرمُ
جنحنا لسلمٍ لم يُعِد كلَّ أرضِنا
ولكـن ليرضيكم نُرحَّـل ونُُعدمُ
فهل يعجز التاريخ إعادةَ نفسه
وينْتقم المظلومُ منكم ويَظلمُ
ومن يستبيح الدَّمَ دون هوادةٍ
فـلا عجـبٌ .. أن يُسـتباحَ له دمُ
#غزةً و #فلسطين
Humility isn't a sign of low self-esteem. It's a mark of high self-awareness.
The goal isn't to deny your strengths. It's to see your strengths & shortcomings accurately. The first rule of improvement: recognize room for improvement.
Narcissism feeds ego. Humility fuels growth.
Strong relationships don’t need agreement. They need alignment.
Agreement is having identical opinions. Alignment is having shared values.
Agreement is taking the same path. Alignment is heading in the same direction.
Closeness is a matter of commitment, not consensus.
The purpose of liberal arts education is not to build your career. It’s to broaden your mind.
You don’t have to justify a major based on job prospects. The only explanation necessary is “it interests me.”
The true value of college is improving your ability to think and learn.
سبعون عاما كم قهرنا ظلمهم
بالفتك والتنكيل والإهمالِ
مستوطنوكم أثخنوا شيبانهم
قتلا وداسوا أمواتهم بنعال
تتفاخرون بسحقكم أطفالهم
كي لا يكونوا كتيبة الأبطال
حتى المقابر واجهت تدميركم
لم يسلم الأموات من الإذلال
نؤمن بعدل الله فلا تستعجلوا
سترون كيف نهاية الأفعال
#القدس و #غزة
وكيف يعاملُ جيشهم #غزةَ
وكإن البشر من بقايا الصخرْ
يُقطَّع أطفالها كالذبائحْ
وتُرمى أشلاؤهم في الحفرْ
أبادوا الصغير قـبل الكبير
وبـرروا ما يعملون بنصر
وهل حق "تدافع عن نفسها"
تُعدَم مدن والبـشرْ والحجر
وتُخْلىٰ البيوت مـن أهـلـها
ويسكنها المعتدي المقتدر

“I was just being myself” is not an excuse for disrespectful behavior. It signals a lack of concern for others.
Authenticity without empathy is selfish. Authenticity without boundaries is careless.
Being true to yourself shouldn’t come at the expense of being kind to others.
It’s not just seeing suffering that's painful. It’s hurting for others while feeling unable to help.
There’s a term for that helplessness: empathic distress. Over time, it leads to burnout and withdrawal.
If you're overwhelmed and exhausted by a heavy heart, you are not alone.
Don’t mistake silence for apathy. When people are quiet, they’re often busy thinking and learning.
Extraverts like to process ideas by talking them through. Introverts prefer to reflect before they speak.
I'm not disengaged. I'm listening to your views and formulating mine.
Long vacations rarely cure burnout. They usually bring temporary relief.
The frequency of time off from work matters more than the duration. 2 separate week-long vacations are more restorative than a 2-week trip.
Regular breaks are vital to well-being.

Comparison is not the thief of joy. Envy is.
Resenting others' success breeds misery and rivalry. Admiring their success brings motivation and learning.
We all compare ourselves to others. A key to growth and happiness is focusing our comparisons on people who inspire us.
