The Science of Side Hustles: Why One Extra Skill Can Double Your Income.
We’ve all been there, siting at our desk, watching the clock crawl, thinking there has to be more than this paycheck. For years I felt the same. It wasn’t that my main job was bad; it just felt like I was running on a treadmill. Then I discovered something simple yet powerful: the science behind side hustles. Not the flashy “get rich quick” stories, but real, skill-based experiments that quietly grow into solid income streams.

Waypoints
“We do not outgrow wonder. We grow into it, carrying sorrow in one hand and light in the other.” I don’t remember the first time I heard the words Once upon a time, but I remember the feeling. The air seemed to change when those words were spoken, as if a door cracked open between the ordinary world and a shimmering one where anything was possible. I was a child then, curled up under blankets, already drifting toward sleep, when fairy tales would spill into my dreams. Castles rose. Beasts spoke. Heroes faltered and triumphed. Somewhere deep inside, a map was being drawn — not of streets and landmarks, but of wonder, sorrow, and truth.

The Roads Between
If I were to unfold a map of myself, it would not resemble the geographies of the earth. No rivers, no capitals, no mountain ranges marked by surveyors. Instead it would hold a series of shifting territories, each one belonging to a different version of me — territories sometimes linked by fragile bridges, sometimes separated by impassable ravines.

🌗 Light and Darkness: Embracing the Balance of Life
🌗 Light and Darkness: The Hidden Story of Life When people talk about life, they often divide it into two extremes: light and darkness. Light is usually praised as joy, hope, and success, while darkness is feared as sadness, loss, and failure. But life is never that simple. It is not a straight road paved with sunshine, nor is it an endless tunnel of night. Life is a mixture, a dance between the two — and only when we learn to honor both do we begin to understand its true beauty.

Silent Lessons
When a Forgotten Book Found Me There are moments in life when you feel as if the universe is quietly nudging you toward something you had ignored for too long. For me, that nudge came in the shape of a thin, dust-covered book sitting silently on my family’s bookshelf—Ya Khuda by Qudratullah Shahab.

The Street I Grew Up On
The first thing I noticed when I walked back into my old street was the silence. It wasn’t the silence of peace, but of absence. The kind of silence that feels like a missing piece in a song you once knew by heart. The narrow road where our laughter used to echo now felt smaller, heavier, almost like it had aged with me.

The Polished Mask of Social Media
The Digital Mirror Open any social media feed today, and you’ll see a flood of polished lives: professionals who look endlessly respectful, activists who share every noble cause, and friends who post touching videos of rescuing animals or feeding the poor. At first glance, it looks like the world has never been kinder.

The Mirror of My Days
The Mirror of My Days Last night, I stood in front of the mirror longer than usual. I wasn’t fixing my hair or adjusting my clothes; I was simply staring. At first, I saw the usual reflection — tired eyes, unshaven stubble, skin carrying the marks of sleepless nights. But then, as the seconds stretched on, I began to see more than a face. The mirror had turned into a storyteller, showing me flashes of my life — who I was, who I became, and who I might still be.

"Mental Math Mastery"
Mathematics is often seen as a subject of rules, formulas, and memorization. But behind the numbers lies a powerful tool that can sharpen the mind, boost confidence, and even improve daily life: mental math. Mastering mental math is not about showing off fancy tricks—it’s about training the brain to think faster, work smarter, and stay sharp in every situation.
