Thank you Ayesha for taking out time and sharing your thoughts, really enjoyed reading the whole blog and for me 2 points really stand out - point 5 and 12 .
Be comfortable being uncomfortable - Learning starts here
Talk to elders - grocery , neighbour etc - This is so true , for some bizarre reason we have labelled wisdom to big geeks but it’s the other way around. Ordinary lay man at times teach us the lessons of a lifetime. There’s this book by famous Pakistani author “Man Challay Ka Sauda” where he covers a transformative journey of man covered by enlighten discussions he had with postman, labour, gardener , farmer etc. if you have time do check that, full of wonderful lessons.
Happy belated birthday , keep up the good work. I have been following your work for sometime and really admire you taking a stand and being vocal. More power to you.
Thanks for the birthday wishes and lovely words, Haris! I'm glad these lessons resonated and definitely agree, being uncomfortable is where growth stems and I've learnt the best lessons from elders. Will check out that book.
Greetings Ayesha, for some reason I missed your message so replying today. I don’t think it’s translated in English so if you want I can share a small 2 minute with English subtitles to give an idea.
It’s an Urdu book sharing simple message of meaningful conversations , how an ordinary postman, Gaurd, roadside vendor, labour or gardener can help you navigating a purpose in life . I have been following your work and for someone like you that is a great book.
