In the rapidly evolving world of cybercrime, attackers continually seek ways to exploit new technology before defenses can catch up. One of the most concerning threats emerging in 2025 is Ghost Tapping—a sophisticated form of NFC (Near Field Communication) relay fraud that enables criminals to make purchases from your account without ever physically touching your card or phone.

As I have gained more wisdom, I have learned to slow down my reactions and examine the issue from as many perspectives as my…

How many times have you told yourself, “I’m not good enough,” “I don’t have what it takes,” or “I could never do that”? If you’re like most people, you’ve had moments when your self-perception has stopped you from reaching for the life you truly want. The truth is that the way we perceive ourselves determines the choices we make, the risks we take, and ultimately, the life we create.
