On Fears and Overcoming
Where I’m from, getting a driver’s license isn’t that easy. It takes a lot of time, money, and nerves, and most people (who are connected) end up simply bribing police officers into letting them pass.

Back in college, I could not force myself to get up before 9am, even 10am. I was a night owl – studying until the early hours of the morning, then sleeping through the next day. But once I started my internship and later on my 9-5, that had to change. Sure, at first I wondered […]

3 Principles of a Productive Morning Routine
The one thing that bugs me about any productive morning routine type article I come upon online is how robotic it seems. It’s based on the idea that my perfect morning routine is the same as yours.
