An Inspired Poem: One Moment of Courage
One moment of courage, a leap of faith
A chance to stand up, to face the race
To fight against the fear, the doubt, the pain
And take a step forward, again and again
It may be a simple act, a small feat
But it takes bravery, to stand on your feet
To speak up for justice, to defend the weak
To pursue your passion, no matter how bleak
It can be a choice, that changes your life
A turning point, amidst all the strife
To break the chains, of past mistakes
And find a new path, a fresh new p…

Managing Company Spending in Challenging Times
In times of economic uncertainty, many companies tend to adopt a reactive approach to spending by making drastic cuts to their budgets in an effort to save money.

An Inspired Poem: Playing with Paradox
Playing with paradox, a game of the mind
A dance of contradiction, where truths entwine

But in memories and dreams, we find our true essence
In giving, we receive, and in taking, we lose
A paradoxical cycle, tha…
