Ramadan Reflections: YOU without a Blurr

YOU without a blurr
It’s said that airplanes are off their course most of the time, yet they start and reach their intended destinations. It’s a matter of knowing where to go and making adjustments on the way.
Ramadan. This is the ‘realest’ you can get. Shaytan is tied up, the avenues to do good is so common, atmosphere of Muslims is o-so-good.
It’s all on YOU…
Instead of waiting until after Ramadan to do some self-analysis, take account now and adjust course.
Let’s cover 3 areas for now:
- Ibadah Threshold
- The Replacement for Time
- Watching the Energy Dial
Ibadah Threshold
Considering that the shayateen are tied up and we’re left to ourselves, our quality and quantity ibadah (worship of Allah) reflects our Ibadah Threshold.
It’s like the cap on how much good deeds our mind & body can handle and how far our Iman drive us.
It’s the same month of Ramadan for everyone. Yet we see some Muslims who are fully ON and continue improving, while others are making FaceBook updates about how Read more…
3-Step Efficiency

3-step Efficiency
When you have a goal in mind for something you’re planning to do, take it one task at a time. Be single focused because you don’t want to be juggling 12 things at once.
[ Before we begin: Efficiency = getting the maximum results output from minimum time input ]
1 – Finish what you start – Even if you’re doing one thing at a time, not multitasking, doing all the right things but never finishing things off then all this useless. Do your best for 100% completion before moving on to.
Here’s why: Did you ever start reading a book or started cleaning a room until it’s almost done but decided to finish it off later…chances are that the happy ending never came. Probably because you Read more…

Everyday people complain about how they need to learn time management and how overwhelmed they are with “stuff,” but rarely do anything about it.
Really, it’s not like the solution’s so complicated, like finding a cure for cancer.
.
You and I know the “1001 things we can all do for better Time Management,” but it’s not likely we’ll do it. Why? Probably because we are “too busy” for it – the irony of that is another issue.
It really comes down to Read more…
Changes-Challenge [C-C]
“You can either let things happen to you or make things happen…it’s all on you“
Nahyan Chowdhury

.
The “Changes Challenge [C-C]“ is something I’m doing for myself and invite you to join in. This is what I mentioned in my email:
.
“Over the past little while I noticed that I didn’t get too much ‘done’
The problem there is that anybody can start on things; small numbers of people do get started, but only successful people follow-through to get them done.“
.
So now I will be absolutely focused on developing my habit of getting things Read more…
Burst Out…then Drop Out
Go the extra mile…even when you’re feeling the burn.
Give that final push and tell yourself that the end result is coming soon.
.
OK, just to back track a little bit – “what’s this guy talking about?”
This is about giving it your all when it’s needed from you and where the value is.
Here’s an example from marathons:
– It’s near the end of the race and everybody is exhausted, but some racers are speeding up instead of slowing down…there’s a burst of energy during those final moments. The 6th position guy can come to 1st and the 1st drops to 4th. This decides the whole race and the top positions can change just like that. It’s a test of who can Read more…
