One Little Improvement A Day from My List of 1,000,000 things to do BEFORE I DIE !

9.1.2013 Nothing much gets done today, up till 5.14pm as at now. In fact my day today is worse than yesterday coz I MISSED my Zuhur! I'm still weak! All because I delayed that obligation mine, when in fact I had the opportunity to perform it early. 8.1.2013 Today I presented for Projek C for the first time. It was a good presentation. My colleagues liked it. I liked it. But still can be improved. 7.1.2013
BEFORE : I never invited any of my friends to join my Financial Planning biz.
AFTER : Today I started to invite potential prospects to join this biz. The first person is someone I know from my community service activity and the second is a perfume seller whom I met for the second time in 2 days.

6.1.2013
BEFORE : My car is full with old documents/things/etc which are not supposed to be there.
AFTER : Emptied all, took inside my home. Will organise at home another day.

5.1.2013
BEFORE : Fajr prayer. Never woke up my children to pray together.
AFTER : For the first time I woke all three of them to pray with me.

4.1.2013
BEFORE : Jumaat prayer. Had stopped taking my sons to Jumaat prayer for a very long time. Busy?
AFTER : Took my eldest son (Aqil) to Jumaat prayer and trained him to give donation to the needy.

3.1.2013
BEFORE : Shoerack area. Messy. With old shoes still on the rack and all over floor.
AFTER : Tidy Up. Only shoes "in-use" are placed on the rack. The rest, not used, put in box.

2.1.2013
BEFORE : LIFE. No clear direction. No focus on one major thing I want to do.
AFTER : Kick start Project C - actually a major improvement, if I can persevere!

1.1.2013
BEFORE : Mosques I visited. No record, just observations and ideas. No real improvements.
AFTER : Start to take pictures of mosques I visited. Plan to start a Derma Campaign for the mosques which needed contributions like sejadah, kopiahs etc

Berani 2013

Takde nama Allah yang Maha Miskin. Tp Maha Kaya. Maha Pemberi. Maha Pengasih.

ILMU

1. Berani tanpa ilmu, mentor n sistem adalah gila

Soalan anda perlu jawab :

J : Lebih teruk!
* Adakah komitmen(perlu bayar (eg hutang) lebih banyak atau lebih rendah?
J : Tinggi
* Adakah simpanan tahun ni lebih tinggi atau lebih rendah?
J : Rendah
* Adakah.sumbangan zakat pendapatan atau perniagaan anda lebih tinggi atau lebih rendah atau belum start?
J : Belum start

* Life is all about improvement! Kalau anda lebih teruk tahun ni. anda mesti berani untuk improve.

* Average person mmg lebih teruk tahun ni drpd lepas. Knp? Sebab duit.kita nilainya menyusut sentiasa.

* 80% capai apa dia nak bila dia ada MATLAMAT YANG JELAS

- buat apa, di mana, bila, mcm mana
- perlu discuss suami isteri

 * Apa saje yg anda nak, TULIS sebab ianya akan tercapai. Bak kata Bob Procter, U get what u order. Apa yg kita tulis ada lah apa yg kuta order drpd Allah. Kalau apa yg kita tulis tu jelas. Kuta akan dapat exactly apa yg kita order. Kalau tak.order langsunglah takkan dapat!

Afdlin Shauki

Saya nak share mcm mana jadi KAYA

Saya ada sorang kwn yg kaya, dah pegi merata dunia tp palestin yg negara hancur tu adalah yg paling aman?????

Knp? Sebab sy sendiri, pegi Gaza takde sorang pun yg sedih, semua org senyum!

Mrk yak marah dgn keadaan atau Allah. Mrk terus berjuang. Mrk tak rasa SORRY dgn themselves. Mrk teruskan perjuangan. Mrk tak KOMPLEN. Tapi kta di sini suka komplen! Jauhkan diri kutavdrpd mrk ini!

Mrk hanya marah dgn Israel.

Dulu mrk lawan guna batu. Now mrk lawan guna senapang dan roket buatan sendiri, wpun tak sehebat bom Israel.

Anak.mati syahid, masih bersyukur.

Lapan hari perang 100 lebih kanak2 mati tapi at the same time, 1000 bayi dilahirkan.

Sambung mcm mana nak kaya tadi, cerita kawan kaya tadi. Masa perang start, dia sedang bercuti, dia tinggalkan family and gi perang sekali.

Masa perang boleh masuk. Tapi masa aman tak boleh. Nak jadi Mujahiddin kena dah solat Subuh berjemaah 6 bulan berturut turut.

Bila kawan saya tu balik dari Gaza, investment dia naik 1300% masa dia ada 8 hari kat Gaza. ie Allah bayar CASH!

Now saya ngan kwn ni tgh nak bina masjid di Gaza.

Maksudnya kalau nak kaya, USAHA dgn CHARITY mesti seiring! Sebab Charity tu Allah bayar cash!

# 36 - RELIGION - Perform My Solat Early

Assamualaikum

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 !
