Poland 🇵🇱 has woken up to the Israeli government’s propaganda, now we just need the rest of the western countries to do the same and call them Terrorists too.
In 3mins, Sifan Hassan from London Marathon will teach you the greatest lesson for life & entrepreneurship. Goosebumps guaranteed!
Sifan ran her debut marathon while training through Ramadan and fasting and was pitted against the best athletes in the world.
Day before the race she said " I'm scared & feel stupid to show up for a marathon"
This is the story of her remarkable win this past Sunday.
-Within one hour of the race, she fell off the pace from the lead pack
-She was struggling with pain and stopped twice to stretch her hips.
-For elite runners, when they stop in a marathon their chances of winning is almost zero.
At this time the commentators said "She needs to stop and somebody needs to give her advice to step off and stop trying to run on. She may not know what to do in a marathon".
-But Sifan showed grit & resilience to stay on the course limping while her competitors raced ahead of her.
-At one point, she was nearly hit by the lead motorbike while trying to get to her water bottle.
-Later she offered water to her rivals.
-With every kilometre she closed the gap with the leaders and soon was with the pack.
-And 400meters away from the finish line she surged leaving her competition almost impossible to catch her.
Sifan won the race with a finish time of 2hr 18min 34 sec
After the finish she said “I learned to be patient and just to run my own race. Just keep going as much as possible and maybe i'll surprise myself.”
What makes Hassan’s story even more special is that she was born in Ethiopia but moved to the Netherlands aged 15 as a refugee where she moved into a shelter for asylum seekers.
Becoming a strong is not an event. It's a process.
Discipline is remembering what you want.

Donbas is living hell.
As everyone turns off their lights today in warm beds, in peaceful cities, think about the soldiers defending your comfort, think about those who die for you to live.
@guardian The cause of dead has not been confirmed but you had the nice thought to mention his previous drug addiction problems. What a kind people in Guardian. Shame on you.
A powerful show of solidarity by Irish politician @RBoydBarrett with Palestinians against Israel’s brutal and inhumane occupation. This is what principled and consistent commitment to justice looks like. 🇮🇪🇵🇸
Despite 30 years of climate diplomacy, urgent and aggressive action is needed to halt global warming. Nature explains what success looks like, and what’s on the line. https://t.co/D53djkh5Xk via @nature
Following the racist comments made by comedian Andrew Lawrence on Twitter we made the decision to cancel his show. As a part of learning disability charity Minstead Trust, we work hard to promote inclusivity, provide safe spaces for everyone and have zero tolerance for racism.
My sister just texted me "حنموت خلص"
“That’s it, we will die.” Due to the intensity of the situation.
My sister was 8 during the 2008 war, 12 during the 2012 war, 14 during the 2014 war, 18 during the march of return, and now she’s 21 during this.
She doesn’t deserve that.
