As we publish our September issue, schools and universities are staring a new academic year; most students and even employees in their corporate jobs are now returning after what I hope was a refreshing holiday. Did you make the most of it? Did you shake off all the stress and exhaustion of the entire academic year or the working year? Are you ready to come back fresh and productive? Well then, let’s get started!
I found that a recurring theme between this issue’s articles has to do in a way or another about gratitude, and even for myself, I’ve been realizing more and more how amazingly it reflects on our lives the moment we acknowledge all the good we already have and we become explicitly thankful for them. And this is something that was endorsed universally and on all levels by successful business people, celebrities, spiritual thought leaders, medical doctors, and most of all, almost all religions. So our readers, how about we all take the time to be more thankful and grateful for everything we have? And not just generally thankful, no, take the time to write down what you’re thankful for on a daily basis, and you will notice the change in your life to the better.
This month, Maitha AlMuhairi joins us as a new columnist in Sail Team. Maitha is an avid reader who has always dreamt of being a recognized novelist and poet. For the last decade she focused on HR as a career, which has taken her away from her dream, but it’s never too late. Her column Pocket full of Books focuses on book reviews and doesn’t necessarily focus on a specific genre. Putting pen to paper Maitha has started writing her first Young Adults Fantasy novel.
