My goal is to become a more productive leader through the Amal Fellowship Program. As an individual, first I have to know myself before thinking about leading someone. I have to be clear about working on myself , polishing myself, knowing what my values are, and on what principles I am living my life. Do I need to readjust my values and update my principles? As a leader, I have to know how to work as a team member, be more flexible, and become MVTP. Leaders provide direction, so taking a back seat and allowing others to shine is also a leader quality. I've spent so much time in Amal's sessions that I feel like all the puzzle pieces are coming together.

Becoming a productive leader is really important for me. As we see in my country, there are very talented people available. They are blessed with high IQ and EQ. They just need guidance. Leaders are what they need. Leaders help you realize who you are and accept yourself and your uniqueness. It assists you in designing your process to achieve your goals, providing a safe environment for learning, and selecting your velocity while on the run. Leader leaves. to give his help to others. Leaders always lead until the team becomes capable of achieving on their own.

In this era of technology, we can learn many things through the internet, online courses, and books. However, without the proper mentoring or fellowship, where you will receive exact data and knowledge specially designed for you. You will be lost. I always commented to my program manager, Amal is keeping me grounded. This is what I truly believe, and I am having very special moments. Amal is exactly what I was looking for and what I needed. Like Steve Jobs said, you can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. I am connecting dots here.

This week, Amal gave us project work, and course, and other activities. which was insightful for me. I completed the course. I felt I completed another step toward being more productive. There were some challenges while doing the task. I wanted to discuss my point of view and get feedback from other members. This week, I wanted to communicate more and listen to other people's ideas about Amal's project. Amal has just started, so we still have a communication gap, and most of the members have exams going on, so they are not active in the discussion group. I would love to discuss it with as many people as possible.

My next step will be reading my fellow members' comments, group posts, and articles, which they will publish later on. Through this, I will be able to learn a lot.
