The Unbreakable Bond of Hunger and Focus


Lets talk about success. Sometimes it feels like people dont just earn it, they are given it, handed to them on a platter? It may sound so familier, but in reality that may not be the real success, it may just be like a line drawn on the ocean, vanishing as soon as we start drawing. I am here to talk about real success, the one which you earn it, let's cut through the clutter and dive into the heart of success – where hunger meets unwavering focus and dogged persistence. This isn't about fancy words or complicated formulas; it's about embracing these three fundamental forces and weaving them into our journey.

Andrew Carnegie, ever heard of him? The US lawmakers turned over every rock, hoping to unveil his secrets. But Carnegie just smiled and said, "I can focus on a single thing for 5 minutes." Now that might sound like small change, but it's a pocket-sized gem of wisdom that could light up your path.
Now, let's rewind to the mountain-mover. Imagine this: a man faced with a mountain that had cost him his wife. With no fancy degrees or motivational hype, he embarked on a mission that spanned over 30 years. His driving force? A hunger to overcome. His weapon? A persistent hammering away, bit by bit, defying all odds.
Meet Les Brown, a straight shooter who once said, "You have to be hungry." Not hungry for food, my friend – hungry for victory, for growth, for proving that your dreams are no illusion.

And then there's Tony Robbins, not a magician but a master of motivation. He started with a hunger – a hunger to escape the ordinary, to ignite others, and to chase dreams without apology.

The essence here is no cosmic hocus-pocus; it's a law that rewards those who don't just settle but keep pushing. The recipe? Hunger, focus, and relentless determination.

Imagine yourself at life's crossroads. Your hunger, like a compass, guides you toward uncharted territories. 

Your focus, a spotlight that pierces through darkness. And your persistence, an armor that shields you through thick and thin.
Pause for the mountain man. His story isn't one of theories, but of grit. His wife's death gave birth to an unyielding hunger for change. With hammer and sweat, he chipped away at that mountain for decades, carving his name into history.

This isn't rocket science; it's you recognizing that success is in your hands. It's the universe nodding to hunger, focus, and relentless spirit. So go ahead, embrace these forces, paint your masterpiece, and let the universe cheer as you carve your path with the hunger, focus, and unbreakable will of a true master.

Dhivehi to English translation with Microsoft translator

  The Dhivehi language translation feature included in Microsoft translator and Microsoft 365 lets you press a button and translate written Dhivehi into English. Though there are a few hiccups here and there, the service is great and provides an understanding of the overall document. This is more than what we see from any existing models. I was amazed to see a link in one of my outlook web emails, it says “translate message to: English” which could mean nothing usually, however, when I saw the next sentence which said “Never translate from: Divehi”, I thought why would it says Divehi specifically if it doesn’t understand that the entire email was written in Dhivehi? Out of curiosity, I pressed the button, and to my surprise, it was quite good. The essence of the message was retained very well. For example, something like އިޙްތިރާމް ޤަބޫލުކުރެއްވުން އެދެން could be translated as “ I would like to respect you ”, which is ok in terms of translation, but what it meant was greeti...

Fortifying Cybersecurity: A NIST CSF Perspective on Zero Trust and Passkeys

Cybersecurity is like protecting a fortress from invaders. Traditionally, we built strong walls around our castle, trusting those inside and keeping potential threats outside. But in today's digital world, threats can come from within and outside, making traditional defences inadequate. This is where the concept of zero trust comes in. What is Zero Trust? Imagine your home. You don't blindly trust everyone who walks in, right? You might ask for identification or make sure they have a reason to be there. Zero trust is similar. It means not automatically trusting anyone or anything trying to access your digital "home" (like your network or data). Instead, it's about constantly verifying and monitoring every access attempt, regardless of where it comes from. Why Zero Trust Matters: Zero trust addresses three key goals in cybersecurity, often called the CIA triad: Confidentiality : Just like you wouldn't want strangers snooping through your person...

Why Understanding Your Risks is Your Best Cyber Defence

  In today's digital age, headlines blare about "unprecedented data breaches" and "nation-state cyberattacks." It's easy to feel overwhelmed by the ever-evolving cyber threat landscape, where sophisticated zero-day exploits can bypass even the most fortified defences. But amidst this complexity, a fundamental truth remains: effective cybersecurity starts with understanding your risks. As Bruce Schneier stated, "Security is not a product, but a process." Just as a military commander wouldn't enter battle without understanding the terrain and potential threats, organizations must grasp the digital landscape in which they operate. Imagine a battlefield shrouded in thick fog. You wouldn't blindly charge ahead, would you? Risk assessment is akin to possessing a high-powered thermal sight, piercing the fog to reveal the hidden dangers lurking in the digital landscape. It's a systematic process of identifying your organization's critical a...
