Corporate Wisdom: The Man Who Wanted a Tattoo

In the bustling town of Qazvin, where wrestlers proudly wore tattoos like badges of honor, a man walked into a bathhouse one day, pretending to be one of them. He wasn’t a wrestler—never lifted a weight heavier than a teacup—but he wanted the world to think otherwise. “I want a tattoo of a lion,” he declared boldly to the tattoo artist. “Make it fierce and mighty. My zodiac sign is Leo, so use your darkest ink. It should roar strength!” The artist nodded, prepared his tools, and began his work. But as soon as the needle touched skin, the man flinched and cried out, “Wait—what part are you doing?” “The tail,” said the artist calmly. “Leave the tail. Start somewhere else,” the man demanded, clutching his arm. The artist sighed and moved on. A few piercings later, the man screamed again. “What are you working on now?” “The ear,” said the artist, visibly annoyed. “Forget the ear. Do another part!” By now, the artist’s patience was hanging by a thread. Still, he tried once more. But when th...

Mini-Course: Master the Art of Writing for Social Media — Bite-Sized Lessons

Writing for social media isn’t just about stringing words together, it’s about sparking emotions, inspiring actions, and creating conversations in seconds. Unlike blogs or long-form articles, social media writing is fast, visual, and purpose-driven. Every caption, tweet, or story has to stop the scroll and deliver impact instantly. Whether you’re crafting viral posts, witty one-liners, or meaningful brand messages, your words shape how people see you (or your brand) online. Learning to write effectively for social platforms helps you build trust, boost engagement, and grow your audience organically: all while staying true to your tone and style. This mini-course, inspired by the simplicity of Google Primer, breaks down the essentials of social media writing into quick, bite-sized lessons. You’ll learn how to hook your readers, write captions that convert, adapt your voice for different platforms, and make your content pop — without feeling overwhelmed. 👉 Rea...

AI Music: Tracking The Emotional Journey Through Music - Must Listen!

1. I wrote these verses back in 2012–13, during a time filled with emotional turbulence. It was right after a breakup, a chaotic phase when everything felt uncertain. The pain and confusion naturally spilled into my writing. The verses are in Urdu, so those unfamiliar with the language might not catch the full meaning. That said, I believe the music itself speaks a universal language—one that transcends words. Listen on Suno 2. The piece I’m sharing now was written earlier this year, quite spontaneously. I penned a few couplets myself, and two were co-written with ChatGPT (yes, a bit of human–AI collaboration!). I then uploaded it to Suno.ai, added a thoughtful prompt, and the result turned out beautifully, exactly how I had imagined it. When I sent it to a friend, his first reaction was simply, “Wah!” (meaning “Wow!”). So, I think you’ll enjoy it too. Give it a listen. Listen on Suno 3. I also wrote another set of verses around 2015–16, though I can’t recall the exa...

Overcoming Fear of the Dark with Gradual Exposure Therapy

Many adults and children quietly struggle with nyctophobia, commonly known as fear of the dark. It’s not just about being afraid of darkness — it’s a fear of what might be in it. Studies show that around 11% of adults admit to feeling uneasy or anxious in complete darkness. But the good news is, this fear can be reduced using gradual exposure therapy.   So, what exactly is gradual exposure therapy? It’s a proven psychological technique where you face your fears slowly, step-by-step, instead of avoiding them. For example, if you’re afraid of the dark, you start with mild situations — like dim lighting — and gradually progress toward spending short periods in complete darkness.  Over time, your mind learns that darkness itself isn’t dangerous, and your fear response weakens naturally. You don’t need a therapist to start. You can practice gradual exposure therapy at home with consistency and patience. The key is to stay calm, repeat each step daily, and only move to the ...

Gen Z and Sustainability: How Gen Z Is Prioritizing Planet Sustainability - by Memoona Ameer

There’s a new generation in town, and they’re armed with Hydro Flasks, a distrust of fast fashion, and a wicked sense of eco-humor. That is our Gen Z. Gen Z isn’t just talking about sustainability; they’re weaving it into their daily lives in ways that are as savvy as they are Instagrammable. Forget the outdated image of environmentalists. This isn’t about sacrificing style or convenience; it’s about being smart. Why buy a new polyester top from a questionable brand when you can score a unique vintage Levi’s jacket for half the price? Thrifting isn’t just shopping; it’s a competitive sport and a zero-carbon-footprint flex. Their activism is baked into their consumer habits. They’re the ones scanning QR codes to check a brand’s ethics before they buy, calling out greenwashing in comment sections, and making “de-influencing” a genuine trend. Their entire digital ecosystem, from GRWM-to-save-the-earth-TikToks to memes about the mental load of remembering your reusable coffee cup, normaliz...

Game: Which Pakistani Drama Came First?

Har Pakistani ke dil mein aik drama memory zaroor basi hui hai. For me, it’s the black-and-white feels of Tanhaiyaan , the patriotism of Alpha Bravo Charlie that gave us goosebumps, or the intense chemistry of Humsafar that had everyone talking for months. From PTV’s golden era to today’s blockbusters like Parizaad and Khaani , our TV industry has given us countless moments that are impossible to forget. Woh bhi kya din thay, jab poora khandaan aik TV ke saamnay jama hota tha, eagerly waiting for the next episode. These dramas weren’t just shows; they were lessons in life, love, and family that brought everyone closer. Agar mujhse poocho, tou Zindagi Gulzar Hai will always have a special place in my heart. It wasn’t just a story; Kashaf ki himmat, uski journey from nothing to everything, felt so incredibly real and inspiring. It’s proof that powerful characters make a drama unforgettable. And then came a masterpiece like Parizaad , reminding us just how deep and meaningful our sto...
