زمان و أنا صغير

أكيــد كل واحد فينا كان بيسمع حكايات من والديه بينبهر بيها لدرجة انه ميقدرش يتصور ان والده كان في يوم من الأيام طفل صغير, تحسه اتولد كبير و عظيم كده علي طول. كل شوية اسرح بخيالي و افكر إن شاء الله لما أنا بقا اكبر و اتجوز و اخلف و احكي لأولادي عني و اقولهم أني في المدرسة كنت من الأوائل و كنت من أكثر الطلاب شهرة و محبوب جداً و اخذت بطولات كثيرة و اشتركت في  الثورة و ضربت و اضرت, و نزلت مع جيراني عشان نعمل لجان شعبية و ندافع عن اهلنا من البلطجية و اتخرجت من الكلية بامتياز و اشتغت شغلانه حلوة جداً و كان ليا تأثير علي البلد و المجتمع

شعور جميل جدا !! فعلاً أنا حكون فخور بأي واحد قدر فعلاً يحقق الحاجات دي. تخيل لو كان الإنسان ده هو أنت. تحس ان ابنك حيبقي فخور بيك أكيد و في أي اجتماع حيجيبك و هو فخور, يا جماعة أنا أبويا شجااع, أنا أبويا ناجح, أنا أبويا وطني و نزل في يوم 25 يناير و قال للظلم لأ

طب تخيل معايه لو العكس حصل, تخيل لو أنت معملتش أي حاجة من الحاجات دي, من الاّخر , برده اولادك حيحبوك ده أكيد, بس غصب عنهم حيقارنوك باّباء اصحابهم و لما يحسوا أنك أي كلام ممكن يكتموا فقلبهم أو يدافعوا عنك و يكذبوا و يقولوا كلام محصلش بس حتكون سقت في نظرهم. و تكون في نظرهم الأب اللي مكانش له أي دور للتغيير في البشرية, الأب السلبي اللي مليان لا مبالاه,  الأب اللي مالوش لازمة من الاّخر, كل اللي فيه انه بيشتغل عشان ييصرف علي البيت عشان ياكلوا عشان مايموتوش من الجوع

أنا عرضتلك صورتين, وارد جدا تكون اخترت طريق منهم, ولكن يكون في علمك أن الطريق ده ممكن يتغير في أي وقت; سواء للأحسن أو للأسوء و ده باختيارك أنت بــس

أنا في الاّخر حطيت صور لبعض الناس اللي أعتقد انه مفيش اختلاف عليهم أنهم كلهم في يوم من الأيام أخدوا موقف و قالوا لأ احنا مش حنسكت, كل واحد جاذف و عرض رسالته و مخافش و كل واحد قالها بطريقته و كل واحد نجح انه يوصل رسالته للناس

 و أختم في الأخر بدعوة: يارب في يوم من الأيام واحد زيي يكتب عن موضوع زي ده و يحط صورتك مع الناس دي!!! قول أمين

Lost Ashes

Everything is mess, infinite loop

Starving for a little hope
Looking happy, with a dying soul

None asked you what is wrong

Can’t stay any more strong?

Can’t find where you belong?

Wondering, trying, losing hope…

Have been oohhh so long?

Ya Allah, Show me the way

Ya Allah, I’ve nothing to say

Every light is fading away

Darkening your sight, killing your sway

You don’t know the shooter

But you know you’re the prey

When your ashes fly away

When you’d rather die than just stay

Life is an ongoing play

You can’t stop or even replay

Ya Allah, Show me the way

Ya Allah, I’ve nothing to say

When the screen turns black

When your dreams go wrack

When your palace becomes a shack

Everything in pieces, no more stacks

When your faith becomes in doubt

When the moans become your sound

When your eyes can't realize

Except the fog all around

Ya Allah, Show me the way

Ya Allah, I’ve nothing to say

When the roads are all cut

All the doors have been shut

Seems to be late... seems to be hard

To save ... your happiness slot

When you’re totally missing light

Just Remember who stands behind

Controlling, watching, caring about

his people every day and night

Inner Peace, Wave 5 "The Power to Judge"

The Problem is not about how to make people judge? Everyone has the ability to analyze situations and create his own opinion according to his/her analysis. The Problem is about how to make people judge accurately?

And This one Too :))

You may think that these videos are fiction, but sometimes you really can think as these people had thought, you really can judge like those people had judged. When? I don't know, neither do you or you'll see yourself so stupid, and that's rare. 
People have the power to think but sometimes they can't think about things that will prove they're stupid or unworthy.



Following the Inner Peace Principle, you'll never feel ashamed to speak to yourself and admit your faults because you're so confident from your abilities to accept your state and improve from it as much as you can. So you'll be able to include yourself in the situation analysis; and when you judge, you judge knowing your real position from guiltiness or innocence.




It's different when you eat an apple and taste its sweetness and then eat some sweets and then eat an apple, you'll never taste how sweet is the apple. Not because the apple isn't sweet, but because the sweets had biased your judgement and moved you from the neutral case.


If you want to Judge correctly, neutralize yourself and take the pilot view leaving yourself as a member of the situation.

Inner Peace, Wave 4 "The Power to Hope"

Dreams are the reason of living. If there were no dreams you never get burdened so you can catch your dream, you'll stand still where you are, just still.


In Egypt, many people lived still for many many years. Why?? Because nobody had any dream set in his mind, a dream that he lives every day and night. Not because he hates dreaming or thinks it's childish, it's because of a series of frustrations which made him lose hope from dreams.





First, it started with childish dreams and most of them were achieved by our parents, "Dad, I want a Bicycle" "Okay Son, here you are". Then, the child gained hope about his dreams, he thinks that every thing he wants will be done but the Family couldn't afford it, so they try to postpone or demotivate this dream so the child would forget, the Child gets a little frustrated.



Until, that day comes when he's responsible for all his dreams, he's the one who'll starve to achieve his dreams. He wants to be the first on the class, he who studies hard so he can beat all the others not his parents. He wants to be strong, he who trains every day and night so he can be the best not his parents.

Unfortunately, with the first or second failure he believes that he can't afford his dreams, whether he's not strong enough, or his dreams are too far. So he starts to get reaction to stop that feeling of frustration. And Instead of working harder so he can develop his ability to achieve his dreams, he starts to Give up this whole Nonsense, and stops dreaming. And the Parasite life begins !!!




You'll stop the series of frustration as you'll stop to dream, you'll stop to try. As you're afraid to lose, afraid to get frustrated, afraid to listen to silly comments about your work, "Look at this fool, he tried to ...." 

As long as you don't have the Guts to say "Yes, I'm wrong." You'll never come to say "Yahooo, I did it"

Thomas Edison invented the lamp after 1000 Failures, when they asked him, what did make you try 1000 times, his reason was never losing hope by visualizing his target, his dream that he'd lived every day and night. With hope, he'd seen all the 1000 Failures as 1000 chance to gain experience about his Invention. He Had that Inner Peace.

With Inner Peace you'll have the full power to believe in yourself, trust your abilities, and as long you believe you can do it, then you can do it. But there are millions don't believe that, so get started in the Challenge Mode and let them Believe in YOU.

The Canary - الكناريا

سامع الكناريا في وداني

بتغني علي نغمة أمل

بدأت معلها ديواني
راسم حلمي الجرئ

و غنيت وياها لجمال الطريق

قلت أقرب من الزقازيق

قلت أقرب أصل الصوت بعيد

مع كل خطوة
دقات قلبي تزيد

مع كل خطوة
شعلة النغم تئيد
بس الكناريا صوتها لسه بعيد

(Chorus)

يا كناريا, أنتِ فين يا كناريا؟؟

يا كناريا أنتِ ليه كده غايبه؟؟

يا كناريا,  ردي عليا !!

يا كناريا, أنتِ حاسه بيا؟؟

فجأة لقيت غراب كبير

بينهش في ميت هزيل

أنا: أنت إللي قلدت الكناريه؟

الغراب (بسخرية): صوتي مش حلو كدة

أنا: عجيبة, اماال فين الكناريا؟؟

و مين الميت إللي أنت فوقيه ده؟؟

الغراب: الميت ده غذايه

وانا كمان بدور علي الكناريا

و لو جت هنا حتكون عشايه

بعدت بسرعة و جريت

و صار الغراب بعيد

يا كنارية, أنت فين يا كناريا !!!

الغنا شغال, لكن خوفي عليها زاد

و فجأة لقيت غراب تاني

بس واقف في مكانه هادي

و بكل حذر و من بعيد سألني

أنت إللي كنت بتغني؟؟؟

قلتله أيوة أنا و من غير خوف

أنت بقا الغراب ؟؟؟

قالي ألف سلامة علي الشوف

أنا الكناريا

Inner Peace, Wave 3 "The Power to Inspire"

First, I want you to see this video, so you can get my point correctly !!

Children See... Children Do

It's a Fact that any person's behavior is mainly affected by his Parents. Kids imitate without thinking about being wrong or right. 

Sometimes we feel that our parents weren't children before but they were children, and it can be easily inferred that they were also Copying Machines  from their parents, and so on. But WHY? Don't these people have minds to use?? Why they're following the same way of their Parents??

I'll always believe in the old saying:

"اقلب القدرة علي فمها, تطلع البنت لأمها"

On the other hand, why do some people hate their Parents TOTALLY, and wish to do every thing that opposes their Parents?




When I asked myself this question, I felt the most convenient answer was "Respect". It's about putting someone in a certain position whether it was Totally Respected or Humiliated, it's your decision even to respect or to humiliate, and to be respected or humiliated.


The Power to Inspire comes from Highly Respected & Respecting relationships. It's a relation built on both terminals to respect each others. When you meet new different people, don't you feel that some of them have to be Respected? Although you've never talked with. You can just see it in his eyes, you can see the power, but when a friend tells you how loser he is, you know he's just faking it.

People may feel you Powerful and in total Control, but sadly a friend tells them that you're not that powerful, and sadly this friend is You.

If you want to let people feel your Power, you must feel it yourself and believe that you GOT IT, not just faking it.

He who knows others is wise. He who knows himself is enlightened. Lao Tzu

Inner Peace, Wave 2 "The Power To Act"

First, I need you to watch this video to get the message clearly.

Wow, that man was totally enraged and of course his Boss will punish him for this action. Will the Boss punish him for this Action, or Reaction. Was that an Action or Reaction? What is the difference between Action and Reaction?


The Difference between the Action and Reaction:
The Action is that behavior you do deliberately, with your own decision, without any external effects pushing you to do so.
The Reaction is the things you do based on previous Actions. Hit me and I'll Hit you. If you didn't, I won't.

From these definitions, you can conclude that:
The office worker had a Reaction, not an Action. Did he really mean to jump on the desk like a monkey and smash all these devices that can cost him a lot of money?
The real Action was done by the first guy by irritating him until he took his Reaction. He did mean to irritate his partner, although he didn't mean to get beaten, but that what happened.

The problem is that the Boss will think the angry man is guilty compared to the first one, he was just kidding with him anyhow.

The Reaction was obvious and unwanted, the Action was unwanted but not obvious, neglected by many.

What is really scary about this is that many of our daily life Actions are Just Reactions, you're just behaving based on previous Actions done in the past days, weeks or even years. 


When you hear that a wife has killed her husband and threw his body to the dogs to eat it, what on Earth will let you do that, especially the one you chose to live with forever unless there were some series of Actions and Reactions made in the past, affecting the Future Actions.

As we say: "القشة التي قسمت ظهر البعير "

With Inner Peace, you can control your emotions though separating between them and your decision. With Inner Peace you can Act, so when people judge on your Actions, they'll judge right because these Actions are YOURS not based on previous Actions and Reactions made by Unkown.

The Action was obvious and wanted and done, the Previous Actions were unwanted, obvious & separated from the situation.

Inner Peace, Wave 1 "The Power To Reflect"

First, I need you to watch these videos to get the message clearly. 

"Inner Peace", that was the lesson the Panda had learnt in its last Adventure in kung-Fu Panda Part 2. Inner Peace means that the body is in a state of peace from inside, so it can concentrate on the outer attacks.

I liked the idea, not because that many don't have any inner peace, but that when the panda had that Inner Peace, it could control the external environment, and defend itself from the Powers that had destroyed a whole town.

Although the Most Common Quote that said: " The best way to Defend is to Attack ", the Panda didn't believe in it. Do we always need to Defend to feel Secure, to feel in Peace?? Do we always Attack anybody we feel that he's an Enemy??

The Panda believed in that one: " The best way to Attack is to Reflect Attack, with Inner Peace". With Inner Peace, you can win the fight without starting it or even without thinking about it. You're just in Peace enough to Defend yourself and reflect all the Enemy's Attacks on him.

That's the Point, if you had Inner Peace, you'll live in Outer Peace, and in case that someone Attacked you, he'll be attacking on himself because you're in control enough to reflect all Attack and live in Peace, Outer Peace and Inner Peace !!!

واحد صفر

رقمين قريبين من بعض

لكن يقدروا يوصلوا للسماء مع بعض

لو أفترقوا حينزلوا لقاع الأرض

و تدبل زهرتهم بعد ما كانت ورد

احب اقدملكم الواحد و الصفر

أو الصفر و الواحد

أصلها بتفرق مابينهم

مين قبل مين, و مين أحسن من مين

رغم كل المشاكل دي

الأتنين كانوا مجتهدين, منتجين

كل شوية يكسبوا, و القيمة تزيد

ساعتها بدىء الخلاف, و نار الكبر تئيد

الصفر بيطالب بزيادة في النصيب

الصفر ده قديم, الأول, خبرة

الواحد أتضايق, و اعترض

لأن الصفر مجرد صفر مايساويش

الصفر شايف أن بيه الواحد بقي أقوي

بقي عشرة, مية, ألف, ملايين

الواحد أستغرب جدا, الصفر ضعيف

مليون صفر جنب بعض من غير واحد يسند, يعني صفر

الصفر عنده حق

الصفر هو الأصل

الواحد كمان عنده حق

هو اللي طور و بني نفسه من الصفر

في الحقيقة مفيش أي مشاكل بين الواحد و الصفر, لكن في القصة دي هما رمزان لكل اتنين (أو أكثر) أصدقاء أو زملاء أو أخوات أو زوجين أو بلدين أو حضارتين, أو امبراطيريتين, أو ... علي حسب أنت عاوز تفهمها ازاي.

المشكلة بقي أن الأتنين مختلفين بس متناسقين, و ده سبب نجاحهم.

في الصفر: الأصل, ده أول واحد جه, و الأكثر خبرة لكن منغير فعل علشان كده فضل مكانه

في الواحد: الجديد, ده اللي طور و جدد من نفسه, و ساعد الصفر أنه يكون ملايين

المشكلة تظهر لما كل واحد يقارن نفسه بصفر, أو العكس. ساعتها حيقارنوا بين وجودهم مع بعض أو لوحدهم.
لما تحس أن شريكك شبه الصفر, ده مش عيب لأنه ممكن يكون قديم أكثر منك, بس خبرة. و لما تحس أنك صاحب الأفضال علي الواحد, لأ الواحد تعب و اجتهد علشان يطور بس نعمل في حسابنها برضو أنه بني من الصفر !!!

تفضل إيه؟؟

الواحد ولا الصفر

أختار مكانك و حافظ عليه
مهما كان واحد ولا صفر
المهم أنك تتفوق فيه
الأرقام الصحيحة أفضل من الكسور.

The Bus

Before you start to read, I'd like to ask you some questions:

Have you ever heard about a Bus with two drivers??

Have you ever seen a Bus that goes two different destinations at the same time??

The right answer is "No I don't"

You may find my questions weird but actually they are not...

Believe it or not...

Some buses are forced to reach to more than one destination at the same time. Some buses have two drivers.

There are some buses have no driver at all.

Can you imagine that???

Now let's talk about these buses. The bus here is the symbol of any organization or any projects or any team we work with.

First... How can you drive a bus for two places in the same time:

The bus can drive you anywhere you want, but one place per drive. You can't reach the two destinations at the same time with one bus. It may be possible with two or three buses, but you know that the number of buses is connected with Responibilities, Resources, Effort and Time... etc.


The Hedgehog and the Fox Is the article title which was written by Isaiah Berlin

He divided the world into hedgehogs and foxes. The fox knows many things, but the hedgehog knows one big thing. The fox is a cunning creature, able to devise a myriad of complex strategies for sneak attacks upon the hedgehog. Day in and day out, the fox circles around the hedgehog's den, waiting for the perfect moment to pounce. Fast, sleek, beautiful, fleet of foot, and crafty-the fox looks like the sure winner.
The hedgehog, on the other hand, is that creature looking like a genetic mix-up between a porcupine and a small armadillo. He waddles along, going about his simple day, searching  for lunch and taking care of his home.The fox waits in cunning silence at the juncture in the trail. The hedgehog, minding his own business, wanders right into the path of the fox. "Aha, I've got you now!" thinks the fox. 
He leaps out, bounding across the ground, lightning fast. The little hedgehog, sensing danger, looks up and thinks, "Here we go again. Will he ever learn?" Rolling up into a perfect little ball,  the hedgehog becomes a sphere of sharp spikes, pointing outward in all directions. The fox, bounding toward his prey, sees the hedgehog defense and calls off  the attack. Retreating back to the forest, the fox begins to calculate a new line of attack.
Each day, some version of this battle between the hedgehog and the fox takes place, and despite the greater cunning of the fox, the hedgehog always wins. 

As you can see, the Fox was more predicted to win the fight, due to his intelligence, but he didn't. Because he was attacking a Hedgehog, despite having only one defensing tool, but it works perfectly!!!

-------------------------------------

Second... How can a bus possess two drivers or even none:


Passengers can see another one of them who can drive the bus, and lead their way out to their destination, beside the old driver.


How Come? How can you have two drivers at the same time?? How can you have two leader for the same team?? Which direction will people accept and walk through??

N.B: Leader here means the character which take the whole team to achieve one target/vision/dream, not just being visionary, or risk-takers.
This video can illustrate more my point of view

In some other buses, passengers may agree about having no driver at all, they think they can deal with it by shifting with each other. Alright, let's think objectively and write the Pros & Cons

The Pros:

• Fair enough
• No one will be that Dictator or Tyrant
• Resultant Decisions will be taken
• Investment

The Cons.

• Some passengers can't drive
• Investment comes with trial and error, do you want to expose yourself to risks of high errors all the time
• Inconsistent, as you're shifting from one point of view to another in a few time.
• Experience takes time, lots of time.

The Great Bus is well known with its consistency, never had an accident before, never broke down before.

Compare the driving ability between the main bus driver and the Passengers. Who has the bigger probability to screw up? Who has the experience?

So if you want to drive a bus faster than any other bus before:

1. Define the Only Driver
2. Define the Only Destination

If you want to go to another destination besides the first,

If you want to have another driver besides the first,

GO but with another Bus please

Thank You for Reading :)
