1.If you don't do it their way, it doesn't mean you're wrong, inferior or off the track. Let them say what they want. They'll never stop hurling abuse at you. Don't be distracted by their noise. Your worth is decided by the Almighty. Be dedicated to Him alone, not them. He knows.

2.In this age of constant distraction, focus is crucial in our relationship with the Almighty. This focus is not only meant for our daily prayers, but should stretch to every aspect of our lives. Living a distracted life leads nowhere as you’ll fall prey to the tricks of Satan!

3.Being hurt is unpleasant. More so if it’s by someone close to you or a person you care about. But it’s really unavoidable. In reality, that’s life. Don’t think too much about it. Let the Almighty heal you. Only He can. Gather your inner strength. Move on & push through the pain!

4.Always be kind to those you meet along the way in life. Remember, we’re all on a journey. Your journey is not the same as mine. And mine is not the same as yours. If we meet on a certain path, may we encourage each other and build each other up instead of tearing each other down.

5.Avoid the company of those who are constantly complaining about other people. They make no effort to hide their discontent. Don't let them drag you into their pit of despair. Stay out of it but try to make them realise that they are the source of their own discontent!

6.Do your best and leave the rest to the Almighty. Think of all the times He’s brought you back on course when you felt lost. As long as you’re seeking Him, He will respond. The trauma, the scars, the suffering you thought would never end but He strengthened you through it all!

7.What got to you was never meant to miss you and what missed you was never ever meant to get to you! So don’t stress over what happens in life. Thank the Almighty for everything because the Lord of the Worlds is in full control. He knows what’s best for you always!

8.Don’t expect everyone to share your vision & goals. Even those close to you may not. That’s life. We are all made differently. Your vision is unique to you. The Almighty crafted them specially for you. When you leave Him out of the equation, that’s when your vision becomes blur!

9.This year has taught us that no matter how meticulously you plan your life, the Almighty has the last say & the veto powers. That’s why it’s so important to live every moment & not take things for granted. Here today, gone tomorrow. We’ve seen that happen too often. Just live!

10.Stop procrastinating. When the Almighty opens a door for you be prepared to walk through it. But for some, it’s an opportunity lost because they’re too lazy to make the move in the direction that He has paved for them. Remember, an opportunity lost may never be regained.
