How To Cope With Radical Change with Ammar Ahmad
Manage episode 263221285 series 2688636
We are in a period of constant and exponential change. Technology is already disrupting large parts of our life and the speed is increasing rapidly. This scares many people as change is associated with discomfort, risk and potential losses. Actually, change also always provides exceptional opportunities for growth, wealth and success. In the future, it will be important to be able to accept change, live with change and adapt to change. Everything will change, our work, the way we move, communicate, learn, do business etc., etc. To be able to still access the feeling of security, being relaxed and full of hope while being in the middle of change is going to be a challenge but it is possible.
In this episode I talk to Ammar Ahmad who has launched his videos show and podcast Denmark Real last year. Ammar was born and raised in Iraq and moved to Denmark with his family at the age of 11. This obviously meant radical change very early in his life, adapting to a new language, a new culture, new friends and new values from one day to the other. After he managed to transform from an “alien” to a “player” in Denmark, he went through the struggles of many young people in our age and time. He started to study and stopped, he started in one industry and stopped, trying to find his purpose, his identity and a vision he can believe in.
This journey has led him through a phase of reading, listening to podcasts and personal development, where he found the answers he was looking for from people like Napoleon Hill, Dale Carnegie, Earl Nightingale, Jordan B. Peterson or Brian Rose.
Today, he wants to inspire others with Denmark Real.
Some of the questions I ask Ammar:
- How did you find the 60 seconds rule? (01:49)
- What was the first thing you did after you listened to Earl Nightingale? (04:29)
- Which change did the outward world perceive from you after your reprogramming? (07:58)
- Did you need to start Denmark Real to find out your purpose? (11:00)
- How was it to migrate from Iraq to Denmark with your family when you were 11 years old? (14:03)
- Did you have to go to school without any knowledge of the Danish language? (15:05)
- Can you describe the social game that was played at school? (17:20)
- How have the struggles of your youth shaped you? (20:39)
- Why did Jordan B. Peterson have such a big impact on you? (24:54)
- Is free speech and freethinking one of the major topics in your show? (29:57)
- What is the vision for Denmark Real (34:05)
It was very interesting to speak to Ammar and get into the minds of the 18 to 30 year-olds. I have a lot of sympathy for this young generation and they give me hope for the future. I hope you will experience the same when you listen to this interview.
