At the Life Workshop, we explore and spark curiosity around the topics that shape our everyday lives. We believe in the power of the 80/20 principle—focusing on the 20% of effort that delivers 80% of the results—so you can achieve more with less.

    S3E9 Call to Prayers

    People often appreciate different music, dance, and food, but not different ideologies. I did not leave Iran to come to Iran. As civilized people, we solve our differences by trying to understand each other, not bombs, like Pete Hegseth. To solve our differences, we need to think logically and calmly, not let emotions control take over.

    S3E8 Social Democracy

    I believe a country should be run more like a company. In a company, the CEO is chosen by a board of directors who understand the job, know the candidates, and have a process for evaluating them. A leader's most important quality should be the ability to lead. If they have some minor flaws, that's normal—they are human beings. We do not need to treat political leaders as if they are perfect or chosen by God. And, of course, not everyone even believes in the same God. Some social rules that are meant to create order can become overly restrictive and start to feel more like a form of dictatorship than a fair system. Many social movements and government institutions begin with good intentions. Examples include labor unions, social services, social justice movements e.g. Woke culture, and even some forms of centralized government. However, when there are no effective checks and balances, these systems can be abused or pushed too far. Instead of protecting fairness, they can become unfair themselves and slowly move a democratic society toward excessive control. A person's success or failure is partly the result of their own choices and efforts, but it is also influenced by their circumstances and the environment they live in. In a social democracy, the goal should be to give everyone as equal an opportunity as possible by creating fair conditions and access to resources.

    S3E7 Political Democracy

    The pilot flying your plane is not chosen by a vote from the passengers. So why should the leader of a country be chosen by everyone living in it? Would you rather have a small number of well-informed votes or a large number of uninformed ones? Is quality more important than quantity? I believe democracy is the best form of government, but sometimes we misunderstand what it means. Anyone is free to become a pilot or a brain surgeon, but no one is allowed to work as one without the proper education, training, and license. The same principle, some argue, should apply to voting.

    S3E6 Entertainment and Excitement

    Entertainment is when you're fully focused on what's happening right now. You're not thinking about the past, the future, or everything going on around you. This is often called being in a state of flow. Excitement is a form of entertainment that boosts your energy and stirs your emotions. Happy people tend to experience both entertainment and excitement more often—and they stay in those feelings longer. There are two main ways to create these feelings: Self-created – You actively engage in what you're doing and give it your full attention instead of multitasking. Consumed – Something external captures your attention completely, such as music, a movie, a game, or an entertainer. Think about this question: What's more important to you? Where you go, what you eat, or what you do? Who are you doing it with? If we understand what creates these positive feelings, we can intentionally create more of them. We can also identify what drains those feelings and learn to avoid it. Each night, take a few minutes to review your day and ask yourself: What did I learn today? What made me feel good? What made me feel bad? The last question is often the most important because it helps you understand what's affecting your happiness. At the end of the day, you are responsible for managing your own feelings—not other people.

    S3E5 Social Media Addiction

    If you just go through life “going with the flow,” you might end up somewhere you never even wanted to be. It’s better to live intentionally — make your own big decisions, and save the “go with the flow” mindset for smaller things. What matters most is not how much other people like you, but how much you genuinely like yourself. Don’t confuse looking happy online with actually being happy in real life. An “Instagram happy” life and a truly happy life are not always the same thing. Don't get fooled and don't fool others. Chasing people’s approval is like drinking salty water — the more you chase it, the emptier you feel. You’ll never fully satisfy that need. If you don’t take charge of your own life, someone else will. This especially happens to people who are easily influenced and keep changing their decisions based on whoever they talked to last. A great habit is spending a few minutes every night reflecting on your day: What made you feel good, and why? What made you feel bad, and why? What can you do tomorrow to make your day better? Every few months, take a step back and honestly ask yourself if your life is moving in the direction you want. Don’t just drift — live with purpose. Surround yourself with people whose lives inspire you, and be careful around people whose lifestyle or mindset pulls you in the wrong direction. Prevention is always easier than fixing damage later. Stay curious, ask questions, and keep learning — but get advice from people who actually know what they’re talking about. Not every opinion deserves equal value, especially from someone who lacks knowledge or experience in that area.

    S3E4 Why am I suing my bank

    We all make mistakes. The real question is what we choose to do afterward. Will we use those mistakes as opportunities to grow, or will we try to defend our wrongdoing? To judge a process, look at the outcome. Don’t let people distract or confuse you with the details of the process itself.

    S3E2 Masks We Wear

    "Is it that we 'act' like different people depending on where we are, or is it just different sides of our personality coming out?"
