The Proactive Mind Talk by Khaled El Shamaa
- March 13, 2018

Khaled El Shamaa emphasises the importance of planning for a way out of crises. Crises would include situations like a fire in a home, hotel or a theater, a flat tire on the highway, a medical emergency in an unfamiliar place, and other things that, if prepared for, could pass, but if not would lead to paying a heavy price, lives lost. From this presentation, we came out convinced that we cannot let ourselves react to situations only , but we have to process ahead what we need to do to save ourselves and our loved ones.
