1.Don’t try to live up to other people's expectations. Don’t go through life making decisions based on other people’s desires. Remember, they don’t have to live with the results of those choices. You do! Take control of your life. Do your best and make the Almighty your priority!

2.It might not be obvious to you now, but greater things are being planned for you. You're always given the test before the reward. You're always given the struggle before the strength. Hardships always come before the ease. Keep trusting the Almighty. The blessings will follow.

3.We’ve all made wrong choices in the past. Don’t let regret overwhelm you. Get back on track. Seek the Almighty’s help and believe that He wants the best for you. Believe that He will redeem the past and restore your present. Leave the worst behind and move forward in faith!

4.The Almighty forgives but people don't always forgive. Don't allow the harsh words or judgment of man to create a distance between you & the Almighty. You might pay a price for some sins you commit on earth but sincere repentance will ease your path to Paradise. Don't lose hope!

5.Not everything that leaves our lives need to be chased. Let it go. The Almighty has decreed some things for you. Others are not meant for you. You may have encountered them for a brief moment. Perhaps there were lessons meant for you. Don’t dwell on what was. Life’s too short!

6.Be friends with those who are happy when you do well. They cherish your victory & support you. They’re excited when things work out for you. They share your views & goals. Keep such people in your inner circle. Never mind if their number is small. Quality over quantity!

7.People will do all they can to tarnish your image, smear your personality etc but take heart because no matter what they do they can’t take away your good deeds. Let them say what they want. The Almighty knows the truth & those who know you better won’t fall for such cheap shots!

8.Sometimes the Almighty removes a particular person from your life because the relationship no longer serves any purpose. There’s no more positive growth. Learn to recognise it. Don’t run after that person who is not meant to be part of the next journey of your life. Move on!

9.Almighty. We’re not perfect. We sin, we falter and make mistakes but we do our best trying to please You. We ask You to accept the deeds we do solely for Your sake. Forgive our shortcomings. We will never lose hope in Your Mercy. We will always keep our hearts attached to You!

10.Be mindful who you trust. Remember, sugar & salt? They look similar. So tread carefully. Listen to your gut feel. The Almighty has given you intuition. Use it wisely. Watch what people are doing. Not just what they’re saying. When words & actions are aligned, trust is affirmed!

11.Be mindful of Satan’s tricks. He will keep bringing up your past. People & events from what was. He doesn’t want you to change & get closer to the Almighty. Be firm. Stay focused. Remember why you left your past in the first place. Don’t look back. He will work it out for you!

12.Sometimes you may want to address some things badly but you know they’re better left unsaid. Because if you do, you may end up regretting your words & actions. It’s a great challenge to exercise restraint but you must for your own peace of mind. The Almighty will take care of it.

13.Maturity is when you stop complaining & making excuses. Stop blaming others for what’s going on in your life. It’s easy to look for scapegoats. But a mature person realizes that whatever happens is mostly a result of choices you've made. Take control of your life! Be accountable!

14.Get up every morning with a fresh, new attitude. Remember, no one is promised a new day. So don’t waste the opportunities that the Almighty has laid out for the day. Believe that He wants only good for you. Having a grateful attitude will determine how you live your life.
