I created this space for the fighters. The ones who don’t want pity, don’t want excuses, just real strategies, motivation, and the mindset to keep moving forward. Whether you have MS, another chronic condition, or just life trying to knock you down, this blog is here to show you one thing. You can still be strong!

In order to develop a win- win approach, I have had to rewire myself to a mindset of abundance. When I feel abundant and generous, I come with an attitude that there is enough for everyone. I am comfortable giving first in order to get something later. I also have to be courageous enough to give something up first in order to let everyone gain.

In part, this blogpost is some sort of catharsis; a justification to myself that it’s okay I didn’t move to Berlin in 2020, regardless of how many people I told about my plan or how much I wanted it. But moreso, it’s a championing of letting life do its thing. An oddly fitting side note to the Berlin saga is that I went to four broken photo booths in one day before finally finding one where I could get new passport pictures. The lord works in mysterious ways. When the tech company I was working for ran out of money and fired 300+ people at the start of April, I was on the cusp of a promotion (the latest juicy carrot I’d created for my donkeylike self to trod towards), so it was a pretty rubbish letdown. But, no pickaxes this time. I choose to be of the mindset that it wasn’t meant to be.

There is so much stress in the “failure is not an option” mindset. Stress to be perfect. Stress to get it all right. Stress to impress. Stress to be the best. But what if you walk into the store and choose the wrong can of green beans? Do you just keep them or do you go back and exchange them, all the while knowing other shoppers will point and say “oh look he chose the wrong green beans” and call you a failure then launch tomatoes at you. Dramatic! I know! However, that’s been my story a few times. No one threw tomatoes at me but I have chosen the wrong direction in life. Not everything I Thought i heard from God ended up being God. I’ve made some pretty stupid mistakes. Do you keep the wrong green beans just to avoid being labeled that scary word “failure?” My personal opinion is to own the failure and move on.

I continued to write journal entries, blog entries, fan fictions throughout high school but stopped writing consistently when I turned 18. I felt my writings were worthless and no one will read them. What is the point of writing if no one reads, right?

After I save up a lot, I would want to continue my studies because that is my dream to graduate with a degree. Age doesn’t matter and it is okay to continue studying even though I am going to be old soon. Lastly, I would like to learn more about my religion and be a better Muslim, Insya Allah. I want to earn more for my family and if I have family in future, I will want my future kids to live with ease. Hopefully I will achieve my goals one day.

I was more naturally inclined in that direction but some events in my life introduced me to the opposite. The great thing about being human is that we can turn corners.

I want to be around to see my boys accomplish everything their hearts desire and changing my mind set away from looking a certain way or it even being about weight loss is helping my motivation.

For years I had disconnected myself from my own needs. I had found that ignoring them was a survival strategy, experience had taught me that I was safer that way. This wasn’t a sustainable approach. I’d become so good at hiding and ignoring my needs that I spent years going through life numb to the good experiences I should have been having. All my actions were routed in expectations and obligations. When that got too much for me I turned to food, drink and drugs to fuel actions. It was ok that I needed to spend the day in bed, it was a hangover rather than depression caused by my unhealed trauma. It’s fine that I drank before I went out, that was me being savvy with money as I wouldn’t spend so much at the club. My binge eating was tied to the days when I was suffering malnutrition from before my adoption (I don’t recall that, I think I may have made it up. I recall walking to collect water with a container on my head as part of my chores, but never hunger…) and the list of justified negative behaviour that sustained the numbing of my emotions is endless. This was never sustainable, and that’s a good thing.
