There is nothing more difficult for me to correct than my intentions, for it continually attempts to change."
{Sufyaan ath-Thawree rahimahullah} ...These were the great ones from the past - and today we slip and trip and don't even care. Let's take this lesson to heart insha'Allah and implement it :) Have YOU discovered Your 'Unique Purpose' in life yet?
Are YOU ready to live and leave a legacy?? This moment is all you have - will YOU cease the moment??? 'Become an overtime sensation and not an overnight sensation, for over time you will leave a legacy whilst overnight you will fade away!' (Nadia WBI). But always remember to align all your thoughts, words and actions and never let go of that rope that holds you tight on to Allah. Seek and you shall find - ask Allah and He az wajal will guide you to your destiny iA. You only have one life in this world - chose your actions wisely, for your akhirah depends on it... ...To succeed in life - prepare today! Start NOW!
Say Bismillah and begin and use all the resources available to you - because they will allow you to begin your journey - don't waste no more time. Plan and prepare and keep tawakul in Allah. Don't wait around for a miracle - for every day is a miracle if you wake up alive. Cease the day and make it happen. Jannah will not be given to us on a plate - it must be won! Ready to WIN? Time - spend it wisely - for once it's gone, it cannot be replaced!
"Beware of every hour and how it passes, and only spend it in the best possible way, do not neglect yourself, but render it accustomed to the noblest and best of actions, and send to your grave that which will please you when you arrive to it." Imaam ibn Al-Jawzee Become the CEO of YOU!
Who else is going to take personal responsibility for all areas of YOUR LIFE, except YOU? Become the best version of YOU today - starting NOW! That is the only way to be happy and achieve all that you were created to achieve. Always remember that we have to take the first step and then Allah (swt) will put barakah in all our endeavours. So say Bismillah and begin your journey. My duas are with YOU! Ibn Qayyim Al Jawziyyah (RA) said: "Deeds without sincerity are like a traveller who carries in his water-jug dirt. The carrying of it burdens him and it brings no benefit."
So on this Friday and as the year ends let's all look back at what we have achieved, what we would like to achieve and let's make a promise to check our intentions and sincerity daily and ask Allah az wajal to but barakah and grant us tawfeeq in all that we do and to do all for His sake alone - ameen! Sometimes Allah breaks your spirit to save your souls.
Sometimes, HE breaks our heart to make us whole. Sometimes, Allah allows pain so we can be stronger. Sometimes, Allah sends us failure so we can be humble. Sometimes, Allah allows illness so we can take better care of ourselves. Sometimes, Allah takes everything away from us so we can learn the value of everything HE gave us. Make plans but understand that we live by Allah's grace. 'Resolutions require only words. Results take action'.
So resolute and take action - for the only limitations are the ones we place on ourselves. Step out of your comfort-zone and do the one thing you always wanted to do or learn. If you want to achieve your goals then for each one break it down and make a step-to-step plan and do one thing right now to make that goal a reality iA. So, go on, resolute and take action to achieve those results to achieve your dreams. Do you remember when you were little and you had a dream to be something or someone great?
You knew without a shadow of doubt that you were special?? Forgotten your childhood dreams and all that you planned and imagined you would be one day??? ***Reflection Moment*** You can still be it if only you allow yourself and give yourself permission to be the best version of you. Those dreams you had as a child were not in vain but were trying to help you on your journey as you got older. Dream again - this time with your eyes open - and make your dreams come true. Allah is with you not against you! "You say that you are just a body, but inside of you is something greater than the Universe." Imam Shafi (rahimullah) You can also be someone great or achieve something great. Don't just be inspired by our glorious past and the giants of Islam - but now its your turn to write history, to make history and to live history! |
