What Others Say About the Workshop
I defeated the fear inside me
“[My] first reaction [after the workshop] was [the] ability to think of things in a different new way. Like I started to motivate myself towards things that I might got bored of doing them. I also, started to organize myself in doing my daily tasks. I defeated the fear inside me, which was the source of lacking motivation, [and] raised the feeling of responsibility.” ~ Alaa Safieh
