An Inspired Poem: From Scarcity to Abundance

A land of scarcity, where dreams subside.

But look beyond the narrow scope,
There lies a world, a wellspring of hope.
A shift in thought, a change in view,
From what is lost to what is true.
In the light of dawn, abundance grows,
Where gratitude’s gen…

The Art of Intentionality: Navigating Modern Challenges
“Leadership is the art of making intentional choices in a world that admires quick fixes, choosing strategic depth over speed and reflection over reaction.”
Leading intentionally might seem straightforward, but it is more challenging than you think. Even the term "intention" carries significant weight.
