It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat.

I am fine how about you? Everything its great her and its too deferent between turkey & Egypt as you saw it and QATAR it’s other different, QATAR its very small country and all of people her working with good salary. Population for QATARI 300000 people and for others nation working in QATAR its 1000000 people. So you can see the deferent we lose with other nation. In QATAR live its easy, very safe, no pore people, economy very strong, for now QATAR economy depend in GAS first & oil, for the last 10 years 30% of QATAR economy change to others than gas & oil. And go for tourist, conferences, shopping & deferent production industrial plant and it will go more than 80% for the coming 10 years.

At the end wish to you all of the best.
