Stop Reflect Appreciate

Pouring his heart and soul into writing this book, with his own eyes (literally and metaphorically), Tamer El Gindi—an eager achiever who earned his PhD in Public Policy and Design at the age of 32—faced a significant challenge when he was diagnosed with ALS three years later. ALS is a fatal disease that begins with the loss of sensation in the body and typically results in death within 3 to 5 years. Remarkably, Tamer surpassed expectations and lived for 7 years after his diagnosis. As he gradually lost control of his senses, eventually retaining only minor control over his eye movements with the aid of eye detection technology, Tamer penned this book, leaving behind a profound account of his journey. Throughout these pages, Tamer encourages readers to “pause” and “reflect” on the countless blessings bestowed upon them by God, urging them to “appreciate” these blessings even in times of hardship. His message emphasizes cherishing the journey as much as the destination, embracing all emotions without disregarding them or letting them overpower us. This is a narrative of resilience and inner peace, love and fortitude, guaranteed to inspire, motivate, and reconnect you with your fundamental values, while positively reshaping your outlook on life in numerous ways
