My career journey began humbly, training in a nearby pharmacy where I started by filling and cleaning shelves. As I advanced through my degree, I transitioned into a pharmacy assistant role, a period that I cherish immensely, thanks to Dr. Saif and Mohammed Esmail for their mentorship. Upon graduation, I had the opportunity to join HalaPharma for Drugs, a startup where I gained diverse experience in the medical field. In the startup environment, I wore many hats, handling marketing, sales, delivery, and payment collection. Over two years, I worked my way up from a medical rep to a senior medical representative. After a brief 15-day break, I took on a temporary role at Care Zone Pharmacy Sudan as a community pharmacist. Here, I also delved into formulation while completing my civil service amid the challenging COVID-19 outbreak. Recognizing the need for administrative and managerial skills, I decided to pursue the DAL Group Graduate program over returning to pharmaceutical marketing. As a two-year trainee at DAL, I set a clear goal to join DAL Medical in business development. I achieved this goal and served as the main project manager, developing tools and consulting the upper management team.

Atomic Habits - the life-changing million-copy #1 bestseller
James Clear

The book "Atomic Habits" by James Clear is a must-read guide for anyone seeking to cultivate good habits, break bad ones and master the tiny behaviors that lead to remarkable results. As a professor with many years of experience in the field of behavior change and habit formation, I find Clear’s work an insightful and practical contribution to the growing body of literature on the subject. Key Facts and Insights Habits are the compound interest of self-improvement: The smallest habits, when consistently practiced, can lead to significant transformations over time. Focus on systems, not goals: Clear argues that the system of actions we follow is more important than the goal we are striving for. The Four Laws of Behavior Change: Clear presents the laws of Cue, Craving, Response, and Reward as the fundamental process of habit formation. Environment matters: Our surroundings play a massive role in shaping our habits and behaviors. Identity-based habits: The most effective way to change your habits is to focus on who you wish to become, not what you want to achieve. Making habits attractive: The more appealing the habit, the more likely it is to become ingrained. Use habit stacking: Pairing a new habit with an existing one can make it easier to adopt. Make habits easy: The easier a habit is to start, the more likely it is to stick. Immediate rewards: Habits are more likely to become ingrained if they are immediately rewarding. Continuous improvement: Focusing on getting 1% better each day can lead to significant growth over time. Tracking habits: Keeping track of habits helps maintain consistency and creates a visual cue to prompt action. In-Depth Analysis 1. The Power of Atomic Habits: The book begins by introducing the concept of atomic habits, which are small, routine behaviors that, when practiced consistently, can lead to significant changes in our lives. This concept is reminiscent of the Kaizen approach in Japanese management theory, which emphasizes continuous improvement through small, incremental changes. 2. Systems vs Goals: Clear posits that focusing on systems rather than goals is more beneficial to long-term success. This echoes Peter Drucker's management by objectives (MBO) approach, which emphasizes the importance of process over outcome. While goals are about the results we want to achieve, systems are about the processes that lead to those results. 3. The Four Laws of Behavior Change: Clear presents the Four Laws of Behavior Change - Cue, Craving, Response, and Reward - as the basis of habit formation and modification. This model is similar to B.F. Skinner's Operant Conditioning theory, which also uses cues (antecedents) and rewards (consequences) to shape behavior. 4. Environment and Habits: Clear emphasizes the importance of environment in shaping our habits, an idea supported by numerous studies in environmental psychology. By manipulating our environment to make good habits easier and bad habits harder, we can influence our behaviors more effectively. 5. Identity-Based Habits: Clear suggests that habits are more likely to stick when they align with our self-identity. This is consistent with the Self-Perception Theory by Daryl Bem, which posits that people infer their attitudes and beliefs from observing their own behavior. 6. Making Habits Attractive and Easy: Clear suggests making habits attractive and easy to start. He advises to use 'temptation bundling' and 'habit stacking' to make new habits more appealing. This is in line with the Premack's Principle, a psychological concept that suggests more probable behaviors will reinforce less probable behaviors. 7. Immediate Rewards and Habit Tracking: Clear stresses the importance of immediate gratification in habit formation. This is consistent with the concept of 'delay discounting' in behavioral economics, which suggests that people are more likely to choose immediate rewards over delayed ones. Habit tracking is recommended as a method to provide this immediate gratification and visually cue action. In conclusion, "Atomic Habits" offers a comprehensive, evidence-based framework for understanding and shaping our habits. It serves as a bridge between academic research and practical application, offering readers actionable strategies to transform their habits and, thereby, their lives.
