My heart beats for ISLAM: 137.
Sleep earlier. I mean, give yourself at least 7 hours of sleep BEFORE midnight strikes so you can wake up for Fajr on time.
Attempt to stay up after Fajr.
Read a few pages of the Qur’an after Fajr.
Make duaa and plan out your day.
Write down ALL the things you want to accomplish on that day and make sure you accomplish them all.
Do not procrastinate. Do not be lazy. The cure to laziness, is to change your attitude and do something even if you feel lazy.
Do not spend most of your day online. Even if you’re taking down notes for classes or for the deen, print it out and look over them that way. This is healthy to your vision and will limit your distraction to go on tumblr/facebook/youtube for no reason.
Even if you have something to say, stop yourself and limit your speech.
Choose your words carefully because they will either be used for you or against you on the Day of Judgement. Listen more.
Nothing is difficult. Nothing. If it’s hard the first time, give it another look & try. Keep trying.
Never be too prideful to ask for help.
Even if you think you know but you’re not sure, ask someone who does. But just like a Math student wouldn’t ask another peer from class, but rather someone learned like the teacher and/or tutor, so should you in matters in regards to the deen. Ask reputable scholars, not laymen.
Don’t gossip, backbite, excessively talk. Just don’t.
Be kind to everyone you meet. Be respectful, be honest & truthful.
Try to establish and improve your relations with people.Leave your arrogance at the door & if you become offended when someone characterizes you as arrogant, check yourself.
Stop thinking the world is out to get you. Everyone is after themselves. Even if the world IS out to get you, do what you can to come out of it the best person you can be.
Don’t overwhelm yourself, but never underestimate your skills. You can do it, but you shouldn’t always.It might be good, but it just might not be for you.
Never lose faith.
Trust. No. One.
Be kind.
Love.
