1.Never tire of doing good, even small acts. We often hear people say that no one notices any of the good they do! But the Almighty does. He’s All-Knowing! So press on & do as much as you can, knowing the ten best days are upon us. Good deeds are magnified & the rewards multiplied!‬

2.Don’t waste the most blessed days. Ten days is not a long time so be sure to fill your days with as much good as possible. The Almighty gives us these periods of spiritual boosts throughout the year. So purify your intent, make a plan and you’re on the way to accomplish much! ‬

3.You might think the battle is too big for you. You’re overwhelmed by the cares & stresses of life but remember, it’s nothing to the Lord of the Worlds. Nothing is impossible for Him. Hand it over to Him & see how things unfold. He will take care of all that we cannot! Have faith!

4.One of our biggest flaws is pretending to be blind to our own shortcomings but we’re the first to jump down someone's throat when they make a mistake. Let’s change that. Learn to be more self-critical instead of always pointing fingers at others. Always start with yourself! ‬

5.The choices you make are yours. You don’t need to explain yourself to anyone. But a lot of us feel this need to explain ourselves. Perhaps we want to be liked by everyone. Or to fit in with them. Whatever it is, stick to your decisions. If you think you’re wrong, correct them! ‬

6.If you have problems sleeping at night or suffer from insomnia, use that time to get close to the Almighty in one of the most blessed of prayers. Don’t waste time on social media or gaming. You need to recognize that your sleeplessness is a gift from Him. Not everyone gets it!

7.Do you find yourself getting more impatient? The truth is social media makes us impatient. It rushes us to want what others have, to be the person you see on your timeline, to live someone else’s life. Learn to be content with what you have. Appreciate the person that you are.

8.When facing a trial, remember that the Almighty’s constantly trying to refine us out of His Love & Mercy so that we can attain the highest ranks in Paradise. So quit asking “why me” when a calamity strikes. Face it with a good attitude so you don’t end up frustrated & bitter!

9.Whatever happens in life, keep going. Quitting is NOT an option because quitting is permanent. Setbacks and disappointments are not. They should serve to challenge and motivate you to strive even harder. The rewards are sweeter. Once you give up, that’s the end of the story! ‬

10.Are you carrying emotional baggage from your past? Remember, it can destroy you if you allow it. The state of your mind is important. If you fill it with hurt, anger, pain, revenge and regrets, it doesn’t augur well for your future. Shift your focus. Make a fresh start today. ‬
