# 40 - MAJOR improvement - Doing Something Extraordinary
Today is the last day of Year 2012.
So what are your DOING today? Are you doing the same old things you did for the last 365 days? Or are you intend to do something EXTRAORDINARY today?
As for me, I am DOING it! I am doing many things OUT OF THE ORDINARY today.
First, today's entry, #40 will be the LAST entry using the numbering system. Starting tomorrow, my blog entry will start with Date.
Secondly, today I start to be BRAVE in promoting my Blog to more and more people out there. I would like to share my enthusiasm to improve myself and others. I hope to increase the 1,969 pageviews today to 50,000 by end of 2013 !
I also would like to start a community of people who share the same interests, ie improving ourselves! Sounds interesting right? If yes, come join me.
Then, most important of all, today, I'm listing down ALL my DREAMS which I want to achieve for 2013 and for the next 10 years! I'm going to fine-tune the dreams / aims / goals / objectives / mission / vision or whatever you call it, as detailed as possible so that it became internalised in me!
In fact, I plan to list all those DREAMS in this page, one by one, so that the whole can be the witness of what I want to achieve!
So, till then.....BYE!

# 36 - RELIGION - Perform My Solat Early
Solat or Praying to Allah is the PILLAR of ISLAM.
For Muslims who deliberately miss their Solat, their status as Muslims are questionable. However, one's status, whether he/she is still a Muslim or not (even after the consideration of Solat) is up to Allah and not for us (human beings) to decide.
Having said that however, as individuals, we have the obligations to take care of our own status as Muslim. Because if we deliberately and arrogantly ignore this responsibility, we ourselves know where we stand during the HEREAFTER........whether we deserve Jannah or HELL (Na'azubillah).
As a Muslim, I admit that I've not been a good Muslim, as I confessed in my previous entry. But I had decided to change for the better and Alhamdulillah I'm a better Muslim now in that aspect. However, I am still WEAK. Many a time, I bowed to the whisper of Syaitan, to DELAY my Solat!
So, from today, starting from the Fajr Prayer (Solat Suboh) this morning, I promised myself that I will perform my Solat at the earliest time possible. I believe I can do this because I am the master of my time now. I control what and when I want to do anything/something. So meeting Allah should be my Number One priority at all time. Because those are the times I can feel calm and at peace. And those are the best times for me to ASK from Allah, what I want for myself and my family. Allah had given us many things which we never asked from Him (eg our eyes, hands, feet) but I stronly believe that only by asking He will give MORE, i.e. ASK FOR MORE. The more freuqent we ask, in shaa Allah the higher probability that Allah will grant it, only time is the difference. That is whether we get what we want immediately or long after.
I will keep track of my Solat Time-Keeping starting today and will update it here, for the next 44days because theoretically, anything we do for 44days will become HABIT and we will feel restless if we ever missed it.
========================================================================
Update : 4 Jan 2013
I managed to keep track of my solat time only for the first few days. After that I simply had no time to update. That's OK if I managed to perform my solat EARLY, as I am supposed to. The problem was that I still not strong enough. However, alhamdulillal, due to my NAWAITU to perform solat early, I DID MANAGED to do it early MOST OF THE TIMES. What to do now is to PERSEVERE !
