DRD 48: Emotional Intelligence: The Skill That Outranks IQ (and Why You Need It Now)
We spend years learning math, language, and science.
But no one teaches us how to manage emotions — our own or others’.
That’s why brilliant people still struggle with anger, burnout, or fragile relationships.

TME 74: The Truth About the “Universal Donor”: What is Universal Donor? Why O-Negative Blood Isn’t Always Universal
Most people think:
👉 “O negative blood can be given to anyone.”
Sounds simple. Feels heroic.
But here’s the truth — it’s not that simple.
I’ve seen it firsthand in the blood centre.
We call O negative the “universal donor” blood because it lacks A, B, and Rh antigens — the main flags our immune system looks for.
So when a patient’s blood group is unknown, especially in emergencies, we grab O negative. It saves lives.

Quote: 49 "We learn nothing from life except through the prism of our assumptions." — André Gide
Every one of us is walking around with invisible glasses that color our reality.
Most never take them off.
But those who do — they start to see.
That’s where self-growth begins.
That’s where leadership becomes wisdom.
That’s where life truly happens.

DRD 47: “We Learned How to Work. Nobody Taught Us How to Rest.” - Microbreaks
The most dangerous myth of productivity is that rest is a reward for hard work.
It’s not.
Rest is what makes hard work possible.
When you schedule microbreaks, you’re not being lazy — you’re being strategic.
You’re acknowledging that your brain is biological, not mechanical.
And that simple shift can be the difference between a career that burns bright — and one that burns out.
