    There are different ways to communicate; one of my favorites is through visuals as it could illustrate a complete situation just through a picture.  

    This image is a perfect example for communication through visuals. When looking at it, one can imply how important green lands are. This is shown by shaping an area into a lung, which entails that cutting down a tree or removing green lands is unhealthy; just like removing a part of your lung. This discourages the cutting down of trees and prompts or aids in planting new ones.

       Often in life we are surrounded by those whom we hold the dearest to our hearts. Let them be family members, friends, lovers or teachers. However, sometimes we are forced to live in solitude, away from all of that. We yearn for the day where we will be back “home”. For the day where we will meet them all again.

      Everyday we live driven by the hope that it is all worth it to meet these people again but relationships aren’t that easy. Even though you may be doing everything in your power for them, they often forget all of that in a moment of anger. Even though you may try to explain it, they won’t listen due to their ignorance on the matter. So what happens when you are forced back to that solitude of yours? It becomes your comfort zone. It becomes your “home” where you belong and you learn to live like that for a long time. You sit in the corner of a room to where you once belonged and think that you are not fit in here anymore.

      One word, time! Would it suffice to just define time as a dimension? Can it be a measure of duration of events? Time has been a major subject of study in philosophy, and science, however, defining it in a way that is relevant to every field without circularity has constantly eluded scholars. It is said that time was created during the big bang, and since then time is considered to be only moving forward.

      Only moving forward, makes time priceless, as you can never go back. So every hour, minute and second counts. Lost time cannot be retrieved again, what is lost is lost. Therefore, i believe one should manage his/her time carefully and try to make use of every minute. I always had problems with time managment. I constantly keep prograstinating and leave everything before the deadline. It is still an issue for me and i realize it and trying to work on it or fix it. Poor time managing is common among many and it's a severe problem our society holds. Inefficient time managment could be the result of numerous reasons. I believe, it is mainly because an individual is inactive or shows a lack of effort or care. Our society (Egypt) is affected by such behaviour-time wasting. As a result i think that is basically tha is the root of difficulties our society is facing. Developed societies need active individuals to prosper.

1. Preparation - explore the problem

2. Incubation - think about the problem in an unconscious manner

3. Illumination - get motivated

This is, simply put, amazing!

David Kelly: How to build you're creative confidence.

 David talks about how many are afraid of being creative, worried about being judged upon and identifies that this is the main obstacle many face. Such obstacle, I believe, ruins how a person would think. For example, when one encounters a difficulty, is there only one way to solve that problem? Is it only solved using some king of an equation? Applying creative thinking can also help people. For instance, Doug Dietz machine helped eliminate the fear from the children who were getting an MRI scan. He designed a machine that looks like a toy-that's creative, and it proved to be extremely beneficial. If people like Doug Dietz (creative people) concerned themselves with those who bash their thoughts with negativity, their products would not have seen the light.
