Keep Your Head Up

October 27, 2008

Finishing school and getting a job is not the end of your life.

You don’t stop there.

Think big. And I mean BIG.

What would you want to do in life?

Is it helping people? Feeding the poor? Helping people get married? Becoming a renown speaker? Writing books? Making music? Painting? Creating things? Drawing?

What do you genuinely LIKE doing?

Would you do this even if you didn’t get paid for it?

Find out whatever that is, and plan to do something big with it.

We’ve been given so many resources, so many chances to do things.

Everything is so easy now. People in our shoes 50 years ago could not have imagined some of the things we can do now.

You can find the entire database of hadith online now, you don’t even have to pick up a book.

Find out what your talents are.

After you figure them out, think of what you could do to use them in a beneficial way for the Ummah.

If not for the Ummah then at least for the rest of the human race.

Think BIG. Take a piece of paper and write it all out when you have time.

There’s honestly nothing you can’t do, just remember to think big.

And don’t forget, your greatest enemy is closer than you think.
