Remember when you were a little child trying to learn to walk? Maybe not, but I'm pretty sure it went something like this:

First you had to learn to stand: a process involving constantly falling down, then getting back up. You laughed sometimes and cried at other times. Somehow there was a determination and conviction that you would succeed, no matter what.

After much practice you finally figure out how to balance yourself, a necessary requirement. You enjoyed this new feeling of power - you'd stand everywhere you could - in your crib, by the couch, on someone's lap. It was a joyous time - you did it! You were in control of you.

Now - the next step - walking. You'd seen others do it - it didn't look that hard - just move your legs while you were standing, right? Wrong - more complexity than you ever imagined. More frustration than anyone should have to deal with. But you tried, again and again and again until you figured this out, too.

If people caught you walking, they applauded, they laughed, it was a, "Oh my God, look at what he's/she's doing". This encouragement fueled you on; it raised your self-confidence.

But how many times did you attempt when no one was watching, when no one was cheering? Every chance you got. You had places to go, things to see, knowledge to learn. You couldn't wait for someone to encourage you to take the next steps. You learned how to encourage yourself.

If we could only remember this about ourselves in today's day.

Remember that we can do anything we set our minds to if we are willing to go through the process, just like when we learned to walk. We don't need to wait for others to encourage us; we need to encourage ourselves.

If you've forgotten how to do this, or feel like your self-esteem needs a boost, take a short journey back through the your life - look at your accomplishments, no matter if they were large or small - you met the challenge and figured out a way to succeed.

Focus on all the things you thought you could never do, initially, and did. While going back, look for the little child you once were. Thank them for never giving up. As you wave goodbye, remember they will never give up on you. They have believed in you all of your life!

Now you need to believe in you too!

"Remember, today is the best day of your life because yesterday was and tomorrow may only be."

The way to Jannah is an uphill climb whereas Jahannam is downhill.
Hence, there is a struggle to get to Jannah but not to Jahannam.



HOPE is wishing something would happen,
FAITH is believing something will happen,



COURAGE is making something happen.

‎" There can be no failure to a man who has not lost his Eeman,.... courage... His character, His self respect... Or his self-confidence...He is still a king....If you are made of the stuff that wins, if you have grit and nerve in you... Your misfortunes...
Losses... And defeats will call them out and make you all the stronger...."

Blessed is He in Whose Hand is the dominion, and He is Able to do all things.
Who has created death and life, (so) that He may test you which of you is best in deed. Surah Al Mulk (: 1 and 2)

Say: "He is the Most Beneficent (Allah), in Him we believe, and in Him we put our trust. (Surah Al Mulk : 29)

"Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up."











Sometimes ALLAH doesn’t change your situation because He wants to change your heart.
