Win Your Next Hour by Dr. Arfeen Khan is a practical guide to taking control of your life—one hour at a time. Instead of focusing on huge life goals that often feel overwhelming, this book teaches you how to win small battles, which gradually lead to big victories.
It’s not about planning the next 5 years, but about mastering your next 60 minutes. Dr. Khan emphasizes that real transformation happens when you take focused action, repeatedly, with intention.
🧠 Part One: The Power of One Hour
🎯 Shift Your Focus from Years to Hours
