Reflections of a Muslim Outreach Worker (part 1)
“You will never understand a man until you walk a mile in his shoes.”
For the past 10 years, I have helped facilitate dialogue with many different people, answering questions about Islam and addressing misconceptions about my faith. It has always been my belief that understanding comes with dialogue so I would like to take this opportunity to share some reflections about the dialogues I have had over the years. Read More

Releasing my book was just the tip of the iceberg By Joshua Shea
There it was, late January of this year and aside from family and friends, I really hadn’t sold many books, maybe 30 or 40. Perhaps that’s all that would happen. Read More

Finish What You Have Started by Jeyran Main
Finish What You Have Started by Jeyran Main
“Much of the stress that people feel doesn’t come from having too much to do. It comes from not finishing what they started.” David Allen
There are many things in our lives that we wish to change. That may be getting rid of bad habits or implementing new good ones. We set goals, promise ourselves, get a planner, get a coach, set reminders but still after a few days or maybe weeks, we give up. We get distracted or do not succeed in seeing any results, and so we do not finish it. Read More

Seven Ways to Overcome Fear by Jeyran Main
How can you get out of your comfort zone? Fear is what sets you back from growing. If you don’t overcome them, you limit your experiences and fall back by isolating yourself. By expanding your comfort zone, you increase your chances. You can start your day with one challenge. One of the best ways to overcome fear us to stay still and to allow yourself to feel the fear and panic. Breathe slowly and consciously. Your mind will then slowly get used to the panic sensation. The goal is to allow yourself to take the fear of fear away. When you don’t overcome the anxiety, they become who you are, and you won’t be able to transcend them. Read More
Beauty of the Fall by Rich Marcello (Book Review #469)
Just like everything else in life, as soon as Dan’s idea and software take off, his previous employer decides to give Dan grief over the concept of originality and theft of intellectual property.
Dan’s life is once more tipped and turned, and he has to straighten things up. The story resembled a Mark Zuckerberg story. It also touched sensitive topics such as domestic violence, loss, dealing with death and the loneliness one feels when they have been lonely.
The story enticed the reader to feel more compassionate towards its characters. While the protagonist had his own issues, the company he creates is aimed to relieve people from similar problems.
I found the literature to be easy to understand and to follow. The pace of the tale was decent and kept the reader engaged. I believe this fictional story would benefit readers that enjoy relatively easy-going books.
