I was having dinner at the kitchens of a restaurant owned by a close member of family and chatting around with the employees.
There is one person who I’ve known for a while now, lovingly called ‘Abu ka’ (originally Abu Bakkar). We were chatting about his family, life etc.
That’s when I came to know that he worked for one of the Qatari ministers for 20 years (prior to the 10 years he’s spent at the restaurant) and during his time as one of the aides, he traveled to 60 countries!! In full royal style i.e. private jets, seven star hotels etc.
Talk about inspiration presenting itself in unexpected places if we take interest in people and show the willingness to listen..
