Self Determination 🪐
Meaning of Decision-Making
In some aspects of life, sometimes we become really confused, but we don't take the time to sit calmly and make a decision with ourselves, asking what we should do. We know that whenever we have to select something new, we often get puzzled. However, this is not the right way.
How many times do we actually think carefully about what we are going to choose, or make a wise selection?
It should be this way: when a person comes into this practical and mechanical world, they should look at things with an open mind and accept them. But no, we are often followers of trends, always waiting for someone to guide us. We have become so lazy that we don't trust ourselves or use our own judgment anymore.
Sometimes, I wonder if one day I will lose my mind thinking about what we are doing.
Where are we all heading?
Why don't we use our knowledge in the right way and get caught up in meaningless tasks, constantly waiting for a change in our fortune to become successful?
Instead of depending on luck, it's better to become independent and take action for ourselves.
LIFE TIP
- Self-determination is very important for us to live a peaceful life. When we stay determined, we experience peace because we live calmly when our inner desires are satisfied. When we make others our ideal, our downfall begins.
- Being impressed by so.meone’s life and wanting to live like them often leads to disappointment. When we try to mold someone else’s life into ours, we end up feeling useless. This method mentally weakens us.
- It's strange to hear that we don't admire people; instead, we idealize them. It is foolish to make anyone, especially a simple person, your ideal. If you want an ideal, look at the life of Hazrat Muhammad (SAW) – his life is the best example. He showed us the best ways to live, and by following them, we can lead a meaningful life.
- For a person to live a good life, the best tip is to stop admiring others and stop letting people control us. Only then can we live a peaceful life, succeeding both in this world and the hereafter by following the guidance of Hazrat Muhammad (SAW).
Choose Your Own Path
- Let me tell you who really succeeds: it’s those who complete what they start. I may be wiser than you, but my experience tells me that if we start something, we should take it to the end. Never leave a task halfway, even if it seems difficult.
- After completing matriculation, what should you choose? Listen to your heart. Go for a field of study you enjoy, rather than just picking something that society approves of. When a person starts doing something difficult just to compete with society, they end up failing.
- Every decision in life should be made by you. Have a simple conversation with your parents to consider a few options, but ultimately choose for yourself. Whether it's a business, further study, or finding a life partner, you must prioritize self-determination. If things go wrong, don’t feel guilty or blame anyone else.
