Casablanca – History, Business & Fun

This video is different from what I usually post. Here, I take you to my birth city Casablanca.  Casablanca is the largest and busiest city in Morocco combining tradition and modernity. I’ll explore with you some touristic sites such as the Ancient Medina & Haubous and will also show you another side of the city where business and social enterprising is flourishing. Sorry, entrepreneurship is coming up on my travel videos because that's what I enjoy the most.  There are other places to visit in Casablanca but they're not on the video. Obviously, my video is not a tour guide but snapshots of where I have recently been.  I have lived in Casablanca for many years. I have also left it many times. Too loud. Too stressful. Very polluted. With all that said, it's the city where my parents, children and I are from. I choose to see the best in it :) I hope you enjoy this video and if you do please like and share it!

It's Okay to Change Your Mind

Changing minds is often seeing as a negative thing. If you’ve made promises to yourself in the past and find it difficult to keep them up, don’t beat yourself up. Embrace the change and do NOT stress out. Your old self hasn’t died. It just evolved. Sticking to decisions you’ve made when you were 5 years-old doesn’t make much sense especially if they become a hindrance to your development and growth. It’s OK to change your mind... In this video, I explain why it's okay to change your mind and how it can actually be a beneficial thing. As George Bernard Shaw said, 'Progress is impossible without change, and those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything.' QUESTION: What is one promise you made yourself that you're finding hard to keep?  Please comment below and share the video if you liked it!

My values: A Blessing and a Curse

My values are both a blessing and a curse. A blessing because they are the foundation of who I am, the decisions I make and the actions I undertake. A curse because they limit me somehow. Being an entrepreneur gives you choice to lead your business as you wish. It also gives you the possibility to explore new fields, let your dreams grow and enable your ambitions to become reality. However, often, business development and integrity clash.  This clash is even more important in some countries where bribes and corruption are the common procedure. In other words, the size of your business demonstrates how much you have corrupted. Clearly, everything is possible when you are an entrepreneur. When facing an obstacle, you know that sometimes the easy solution is a big fat envelope (or briefcase) full of cash to solve the issue. Same goes with clients. You want to keep them and feel that they are happy to give you business only when you make the gesture. Your hands are tied. You know ...
