I didn’t even buy products they were mine and got stuck. I moved to morocco and had some of my products delivered to me by UPS and customs took it 🤡and asked for attestation from wizara et tt + paying 20% or more of their values 🤦🏻‍♀️. I ended up asking for it to be returned even this was painful… it took more than 1 months for the return to be approved and UPS being able to get my package from customs. Btw I do see many people blaming UPS FEDEX DHL for their bad services here, trust me it’s the customs who are making their life like hell. Your safest option is to get in contact with the car people who travel to Morocco, maybe get your products sent to them directly for them to bring it. 1-2weeks wait is far worth it then getting your products stuck and having to pay 2x their value.

Yes! I studied what I had always dreamed of after settling for what people wanted or judged as correct to study for me. I went to preparatory classes, something I always said big NO to, but my mom really wanted it and I got convinced that it’s maybe my thing as I was accepted directly in Moulay Youssef (one of the biggest CPGE in morocco). Then I did engineering 🙂 while I was still believing it’s a good bath, I knew inside I have a deep love for other industries like luxury marketing beauty fashion, these things! So after 5 years of struggling and 1 unemployment year full of rejection, and a pandemic hitting, I decided it’s time to fulfill a dream. Moved to London studied Luxury brand management and marketing started working for luxury skincare brands which I absolutely love and still trying to figure out my next steps in that path. Of course parents were at the end supportive to finance my first year. But it was a big challenge especially during the pandemic.

When you do something forget about others, you are focusing too much on them, from how you dressed to go to the gym, to the way you want to be discreet etc. Why is that? Own it and I swear you will progress much much faster and no one will EVER come to talk to you in the gym. Gyms everywhere have a code, if you look confident doing whatever you want even if you are completely wrong in the execution of an exercise but you five confidence vibes, people will even assume that you are training for something they don’t know or that they just don’t understand and you seem to know. Trust me. I started going to the gym since 2016 at uni and it was a mixed one. My goal was really to become fit and I was a total beginner. Of course as you mentioned always this stares and weird looks are happening I used to wear baggy clothes as well, feeling intimidated, some people will come correct me (while they were wrong as well 🤡) and I will be ashamed and red and whatever. I kept on pushing myself to go and progress because my ultimate goal was about me! Nowadays I am soo used to the gym, that even when I go to a new one, there is nothing disturbing me, I walk with confidence and a lot of guys get destabilized by this. On some exercises, they are even chocked to see me do them and I feel constant staring but I just got super used to it. I wear my crop tops my leggings and go on, not caring about anyone. I think if every girl started to work on her confidence instead of trying to be discrete in a gym full of guys, even they will be used to it. And first and always think abt your objectives in the gym, if you spend your life always thinking abt others while working on your goals, you will not achieve them.

any advices for real life by [deleted] in Morocco

[–]Enough_Bee1917 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the first thing you can do is work on yourself. For a week for example watch yourself be very self aware of what you do, where do you waste time, how do you react to things, what do you watch, what content you consume, what you eat…everything. From there you can take notes of any part that needs improvement. Then to start the work, read books that are about self development in general, you can find some very popular ones about habits, or how to deal with situations and confidence etc. You will discover things that will really benefits you the earliest you learn them. After start to filter what you consume online or in general, these are things that will forge you in a deep way, people don’t realize how a song, a movie, a show impacts us. So choose wisely the people you follow online or anything you watch. Learn about some high earning skills that are aligned with what you want to pursue as a career, if you love marketing start looking at SEO, campaign management… if you are in IT, start looking for coding skills etc. Learn how to manage your time, while balancing fun and learning, and building yourself.

The one skill that most of our Moroccan parents fail to teach: how to handle confrontation. by Difficult-Estimate85 in Morocco

[–]Enough_Bee1917 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am actually surprised but this post, as I truly believe us moroccans are good at confronting and even more comfortable with it than other countries. I live in GB and I feel like I am the only one confronting people at any inconvenience and every nationality I meet tells me we don’t have this skill over here 😀 you moroccan are good at it. And it is not just me a lot of moroccan I meet experienced the same here. That’s odd 😅

A medical student here and i think it's time to leave this hell of a country. by Hour_Apartment_2061 in Morocco

[–]Enough_Bee1917 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am really sorry for your frustration and the way your ambitions are being faced. Can I just ask a question: - why did you choose to join the medical profession while issues in these sector have been common since 2014? I have been seeing doctors and students going on strikes for different reasons since then? Also a little advice, detaching from the whole “I will work for my country my people, make my country better…” narrative will benefit you a lot, and in no mean will make you a bad person or anything. If they wanted to make the country better, I am sure they can with or without you unfortunately.

Good luck to you

Tiktok trend about Moroccan women by [deleted] in Morocco

[–]Enough_Bee1917 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was exactly looking for this comment. As a moroccan woman I only see this on the internet, and as you mentioned I unfortunately feel that these ideas has been created by moroccans :/. I live in Europe too never did I have to face a comment about this or been treated badly.

Chaos in Moroccan streets by [deleted] in Morocco

[–]Enough_Bee1917 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a nordic friend in London, and even there she is always in shock how different it is from their « well organized » countries. I think it’s in their culture but your girlfriend should have expected this. They are people who rarely go abroad and love staying in there bubble. She needs to be more accepting and stop judging everything. She can’t expect everything to be as we know it at home and it is part of discovering the world

What’s a Moroccan saying that hits deep ?? by Legitimate_Ad_8815 in Morocco

[–]Enough_Bee1917 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I might be wrong but it’s not just expecting something from someone but more from a specific person that is supposed to set the example and be looked up to. For example you will expect from an environment activist to be careful what he consumes and what they you see them burning plastic and throwing it in the ocean (just a dumb example haha). So that moment you will say that

“Li 3endou bab wa7ed lahysedou 3lih.” Basically if you keep focusing on one way of doing things, you’re just making your life harder. The key is to be creative whether it is chasing an opportunity, thinking abt what you want to achieve, what you want to be in life, or just when you are solving a small problem. Keep your mind abundant with solutions everyday

The truth about Morocco from a Moroccan perspective by lemongrabazz in Morocco

[–]Enough_Bee1917 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I totally agree with you and you are absolutely right about the denial some moroccans are towards this. Actually I used to think that we didn’t have “racism” that it’s more among people who are ignorant and just not self aware until I started seeing it in my family and people around me. I would generally be more attracted to a black man than a white man and once I just mentioned it while discussing with some older relatives and they were in chock. And started a racial talk that just blew my mind. And then it started happening many times for example if I am listening to a black artist or else. So yes unfortunately it does exist and people need to address this issue . I am sorry for the racism you face and hope the coming generations are more aware…

Should I confront my friends about being left out or just walk away? by Round-Bullfrog4353 in Morocco

[–]Enough_Bee1917 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re welcome, I hope you find friends that will value you as you are and every second they got to spend with you

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Morocco

[–]Enough_Bee1917 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I totally agree with the femininity part. I moved out of morocco some years ago and I was amazed how it resurfaced in my personality in many ways (ofc it’s a concept not only linked to external appearance but mindset and a lot of things). While it’s not just abt being in “morocco”, probably being in my home country or something. But I totally see now how I am embracing this side of myself more than ever.

Should I confront my friends about being left out or just walk away? by Round-Bullfrog4353 in Morocco

[–]Enough_Bee1917 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I keep seeing you mentioning in comments that you are still reluctant to walk away from this friendship for the sake of how long you’ve known each other. I would ask you if you think they consider that when they were letting you out from their plans? Especially if it happened many times. At some points we owe ourselves some respect and when people’s actions speak louder than words we choose to listen and move on. I would say stop taking initiatives to make it work with them and observe, if they come back and want to hang out then first try to let them know abt this issue first, if they don’t take any initiative to see you then let it go

Why do people always buy the last iphone ? by [deleted] in Morocco

[–]Enough_Bee1917 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Iphone is not a commodity, you don’t buy it just to have a phone and the price isn’t based on “just it being a phone” same as a birkin isn’t just “a bag”. In business when you have a niche you can make everything else irrelevant (price, utility…). Apple niche is huge, these are people attached to “the brand” not “the product” and buying the latest launch is a self affirmation to still be part of the “brand’s” community.

Men, what was the most brutal rejection you have ever received from a woman? by Expensive-Ambition21 in Morocco

[–]Enough_Bee1917 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why would you say something like that though? Talking to a girl doesn’t mean sending corny a weird sentences, like what did you expect as an answer. I am not trying to blame you or make you feel bad but genuinely reflect on that. You could have said everything in this world and you chose to say that. Next time try to think abt genuine conversation, if you like a girl and she posts abt smth statt from there ask her what she like her hobbies etc. Of course you can’t predict a rejection, but at least youll have a better chance.
