There are 4 types of people in every organization:

1. Those who subtract (negative)

These are people who continuously suck the best energy out of you.

They only take but don’t give.

They tend to convince those around them into small thinking or victimhood mentality. 2. Those who divide

They Negatively talk behind the leaders of the organization.

Create wedges between people

I have a simple request @AppleSupport & @tim_cook for 2023.

What do we need to do to get “Assyrians”, a civilization that lead the way with great inventions we all use today, to have representation of their flag emoji on Apple?

Here’s a list of inventions: Assyrians Divided the week into 7 days.

A day into 24 hours, hour into 60 minutes, minute into 60 seconds.

A circle into 360 degrees.

Invented the wheel.

Invented the written word, using a form of writing, cuneiform, that led first to the Phonecian & ultimately Latin.

Stop chasing titles.

CEO, founder, Entrepreneur, etc

There’s only one title worth chasing.

LEADER!

Stop forcing success.

Instead align your talent + ambition + passion with the right situation, team and opportunity.

Then give your best & don’t look around. Everyone’s shopping resumes today.

That’s dumb.

Constantly Treating your career as a series of one night stands doesn’t create momentum.

It creates a reputation that you’re easy. You get around.

You can be bought. You’re for sale.

It shows that your passion is money.

Capitalism is the greatest economical system in the world.

Those who work hard, love it.
Those who don’t, hate it.

Contrary to what many professors & mainstream media say, capitalism doesn’t care about your skin color, age, degree or financial situation. Capitalism doesn’t care that I’m from Iran.

Capitalism doesn’t care that my parents got a divorce.

Capitalism doesn’t care that English is my 5th language.

Capitalism doesn’t care that my Dad was a cashier at a $.99 cent store in Inglewood.
