On Monday 30 August 2021, Baraa Training Center organised a remote training course entitled “Design your life”, presented by academic researcher Salman Ebrahim Alhooti.

He began by discussing the importance of planning to shape life effectively, helping individuals build a promising future for themselves and their community. Planning, he said, is among the important factors in success across practical and academic life.

A clear vision, specific goals, effective use of resources and capabilities, and improved personal and professional efficiency can help people plan their future. These tools can reduce anticipated risks, improve control of situations and support sound decisions.

Alhooti explained the role of SWOT analysis in understanding internal capabilities—strengths and weaknesses—for individuals, institutions and companies, alongside external opportunities, obstacles and potential risks.

He concluded that planning, setting priorities and considering how to respond to future obstacles can help people achieve a better life.
