can you just stop?

if we want to achieve something, we must plan it carefully.

like an architect who needs to design a home. he must plan the design very well, including the measurements, the materials needed to build that home, etc in order to have a home which satisfied his clients.

if we want to get married, we must plan too. plan all the things such as budget, decorations, date etc.

if we want to go somewhere, we must know where we are heading to. we must know the road.

the same thing goes to success. talking without planning is just like a waste, zero talk.

"I want to be a teacher."

"But you are taking science subject, so how are you gonna achieve that?"

"I will take teaching course."

if the person above still wants to continue her study in teaching, she must come out with a plan on how to make it reality. she can take kpli for an example.

you know what the meaning of actions speak louder than words right?

it means that if you are babbling too much about your dreams, your hopes, your ambitions and you are DOING NOTHING to make them a reality, than you are a LOSER. you are a loser to yourself. what the hell talking about such things if you JUST TALKING?

in Islam also, we have the concept of tawakkal. and this is a story about tawakkal...

one day, a student ask his teacher,

"Ustaz, what is the meaning of tawakkal?"

"You go to the masjid (I'm avoiding the word 'mosque') and you sit at a corner there. everyday, many rich people will give zakat to the students because they need the money"

"Ok Ustaz.."

after that, the student went to the masjid and do what his teacher has told him. he sat there, waiting and waiting while zikir. there was many students doing the same thing as he did, waiting for the zakat while zikir. many rich people passed through them and they gave the money by insert it to the students' pockets. after a few days, he still not received any money yet because of his location near the masjid pole and people hardly can see him. feeling frustrated, he's been thinking the way to get the money too. and he got the idea. when a rich people came to the students near him, he's 'berdehem' a little and the rich person realize his existence and gave the money to him too. he went to his ustaz and told him what had happened. and his ustaz said, "that's tawakkal".

so, do you get the meaning? tawakkal is not only we pray and pray and pray for all the time to get the miracles. we must try our best and only after that we can rely to Allah...

we dont iron our dress yet and we pray to Allah to make it okay and not wrinkles.

we dont read anything for the exam and we pray to Allah to give the success to us.

we dont start writing any words yet and we pray to Allah to make our essays complete until the full stop.

we want to eat and just wait inside our rooms, praying to Allah to send some food to us.

that's not tawakkal, that's your stupid reason. because,

if you dont get success, then you said it's because your takdir.

if you cant come to class, then you said it's because Allah has fate it to you.
if you failed, then you said Allah wants to test you.

Allah will not cruel to us, we can still change our fate.

how will Allah give any that we ask if we, ourselves, are not doing anything. 

unless you are as good as Maryam and others His pious, wara' slaves.

moral, stop talking and start taking the step. actions do speak louder than words.
