Idea for kickoff

Have you heard about DiscoverU Powerworkshops?

Its a innovative program devised by Muhammed Al Shareef - maybe we should ask him to present this for our first seminar.

About powerworkshops:
At the turn of the century, Muhammad Alshareef launched AlMaghrib Institute, a dynamic university-level seminar company. Within only two years, AlMaghrib Institute became the largest and most successful educational project of it's kind in North America. Today it conducts seminars in over 14 US and Canadian cities.

As you would agree, in this journey of growing AlMaghrib, no doubt many lessons were learned. Muhammad Alshareef would eat business books for breakfast, attend premium seminars from world-class leaders for lunch, and for dinner he would run out by the lake and do his own personal power exercises. And he did this for years!

Muhammad Alshareef, in addition to having a law degree and having memorized the Qur'an at a young age, is a certified personal development coach. Alshareef is certified in NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming), certified in Psychotherapy, and certified in Timeline therapy. Additionally, he is a graduate of world-class financial, health, and psychology mastery university programs.

In late 2005, Muhammad Alshareef began coaching individuals one-on-one. His coaching was focused on taking the clients main goals and reducing the time it would take by at least 50%. Case example: one of Alshareef's clients said his goal was to make an additional 15k for his company. Within two weeks he had made 75 thousand!

With a passion to share all that he has learned with you, DiscoverU became his backyard playground to develop new technologies for the community.

Thank you for considering DiscoverU. With best wishes to see you succeed at the highest level!

CAMP Vision - My thoughts

I've gone through the camp sites and read the general mission statements for CAMP. CAMP encompasses many things. This is my take on CAMP.

Problem: We see that muslims are faced with challenges from a number of perpectives. There are a number of initiatives that have been created to address these various challenges.

Solution: Connect our human capital to these initiatives.

So what is CAMP? A platform that serves Muslims professionals and enables professionals to serve others.

So what does CAMP do? It networks, activates and promotes initiatives that serve Muslim Professionals or initiatives where Muslim professionals can provide a service.


CAMP needs to promote innovation in ideas and projects, creativtity and success. We need to showcase the success stories in our community to inspire and motivate this demographic.

CAMP DC

This blog is used for the interim until the camp site is revamped. So please post or suggest things. If you cant post, I will send an email about how to do so on the mailing list.
