You have nothing to lose.
“So many lives would transform overnight if they realised ‘My life sucks, I have nothing going for me…’ really means ‘I have nothing to lose.’
And that makes you a very dangerous person.” — @AlexHormozi
If you're a Muslim creative building something and you're not having fun with it... you're probably not going to make it. Because anything worth building takes at least 1,000 hours. You're going to have to solve problems that no one ever taught you how to solve and you're going to have to be able to wake up after Fajr and go straight into it. Otherwise you're just creating another 9-5 except now you're the boss and you're mad at yourself.
Not everyone wants to see you win.
“People like success but they love a failure because failure validates their own cowardice.
It gives them the excuse to think ‘I don’t look like an idiot for not trying myself’.
When you’re on your way up everyone roots for you because you remind them of their dreams.
When you’re at the top, you remind them of what they’ll never accomplish.”
The easiest way to avoid looking bad is to do nothing, but if you do nothing, you look bad too.
So if you're going to look bad either way, you as well do that thing you want.
“Everything grand is made from a series of ugly little moments.
Everything worthwhile by hours of self-doubt and days of drudgery.
All the works by people you and I admire sit atop a foundation of failures.” — Pierce Brown
The Prophet ﷺ said:
“The Hour will not be established until the happiest of people in the world is Luka‘ ibn Luka‘.”
Do you know what “Luka‘ ibn Luka‘” means?
Stop complaining about results you didn’t get from work you didn’t put in.
“The only way to become more successful than most people is to be willing to do something most people aren’t willing to do.” — @Markmanson
Inaction is worse than incorrect action.
“Most failures are one-time costs.
Most regrets are recurring costs.
The pain of inaction stings longer than the pain of incorrect action.” — @JamesClear
I was so sharp and so ready for this fight I cannot believe what has happened. The talk of me being off while walking in to the fight is nonsense. I was calm, ready, and confident. I am in shock what has taken place. The devil is literally staring at me right in front of my face here. I am not engaging. I will be at church tomorrow.
I will overcome this.
I will not be deterred.
I will return.
