Liberate your mind from narrated nonsense. In this episode of the Working Ant, I'll coach you through common Cognitive Distortions that divert us from reality and away from our ability to flourish as a progressive professionals.

Ep. 13: Want more for yourself? Be more OF YOURSELF! 26.10.2020 29:31
Conformity can only go so far. If you lose too much of yourself (your identity), you'll inadvertently blame more of yourself later in your career. Stop this now by using the most amazing things about yourself and amplify their application elsewhere. What can you do with these fundamental elements of your personality other than find an environment and a career (or passion) to apply them? &nbs...
Ep. 12: How to preempt (and design) high stake conversations. Seize your bounty through preemptive intent! 19.10.2020 33:39
Deliberateness unsupported by intent is like a shield without its sword. Although sturdy and compelling, the inability to strike leaves the other party only dazed, slightly phased, and more than likely to walk away. In this episode of The Working Ant, I'm going to coach you how to be preemptive in your next crucial conversation. It's not enough to be deliberate, you must be intentional. Yes...
Ep. 11: Looking for a Hero? Enough already! Look in the mirror. Be YOUR OWN HERO! 12.10.2020 38:06
Narrate your own story. Seeking validation? Create your own! Do not seek permission and learn how to be great at being your own source of inspiration. This week, I'm a little unabridged in how I feel about becoming your own hero. In this episode of The Working Ant, expect motivation aligned with aspiration because I'm going to coach you (and push you) into practically becoming the version of...
Ep. 10: If you were given a tongue, use it to speak to benefits FIRST, then to process. 05.10.2020 36:27
Most of us default to speaking like operators, talking up our process when in fact we're losing out on massive opportunity when we don't speak in terms of benefits. Want to play the game well? Learn to speak the language of impact - the language of BENEFITS. That's what I'm coaching this week on The Working Ant.

In this episode of The Working Ant, I'm going to coach you on how to RADICALLY differentiate yourself in a way most of your peers would never even think of and it ironically starts with using our past experiences (and memories), as assets rather than liabilities. This is practical stuff . No fluff . Let's do this!
Ep. 8: The Peak End Rule: Why your last impression is more important than the first and how to genuinely hack your next interview. 21.09.2020 42:42

Learn how to let go of bad past experiences and free yourself from the emotional shackles that hold you back.
Ep. 6: The Power of Beliefs Over Your Career (and your life) 05.09.2020 38:57
Is it a gift or a setback? You choose. Is the silence deafening, or is it an awakening? You choose. Should I pursue it further, or is the writing on the wall? YOU choose. This is all about the power of beliefs - the beautiful creations they make and the destruction they inadvertently cause. The power of beliefs are yours. YOU choose. Choose wisely.
Ep. 5: How to forge a new identity and give yourself sole responsibility for your own image. 30.08.2020 51:06
Society imposes much on us. It's stressful initially, but we've gotten so used to masking it and living out an alternative image of ourselves that we fail to recognize the power we have to use a lost self-consciousness, resurrect it, mold it, and shape the true character we were destined to have. An aligned character gets us closer to an aligned life - one of awareness and necessary agility, but o...
Ep. 4: Ostinato Rigore: Relentless Rigor (for yourself and your career). 24.08.2020 42:19
Overcoming the mental block that tells you you're not good enough, not qualified enough, not ready to make the most out of this short life. Not for you and not on my watch!
Ep. 3: The Power of Feedback: How to get it, where to start, what to ask, and why it REALLY matters. 21.08.2020 56:22
Do you want to improve the perception people have of you? Are you clear about the impact you have on others? The only way to truly respond to this question is to know what other people perceive you as already. The reality is that you need to take an active approach rather than one of passivity in how you build an image of yourself and for yourself. If you don't want to follow your fellow wor...

What is the ultimate perceptio n you want others to have of you? Did you ever think about this question and how it has impacted your career? In this episode I'll teach you how to find what truly empowers you to brand yourself deliberately and genuinely with practical methods you can put to use immediately in the most compelling and authentic way.
Ep. 1: To control the narrative, control yourself. 17.08.2020 38:25
There's a big difference for those that feel constrained and confined with that which they cannot control and those who seek to seize what they can control and maximize its yield. Do not fall into the folly of the fainted heart! Determined and deliberate you can master a narrative through the on-going mastery of yourself.
Why Ramy? Why the Working Ant? Why this is different. 02.07.2020 9:45
I've been asked this question a lot lately. It turns out this was a long time coming. I prolonged the inevitable, but inevitable is now here, and I intend for it stay.
