Completed Upwork 101 Halal Hustle today and it gave me much needed clarity. One thing that really stayed with me was how freelancing frees you from that daily frustration of rushing in the morning just to reach an office already drained. Learned how Upwork actually works today, especially the importance of a strong profile. A professional profile image really matters, and many people make basic mistakes there. Also learned not to rush into contracts too early. First build understanding, clarity, and positioning. Feeling more confident and hopeful about starting my freelancing journey, step by step.

I stopped trying to explain myself to everyone. I used to replay conversations in my head, wondering how I could be understood better, until I realized not everyone is meant to understand me. The day I stopped over-explaining, my mind felt quieter. I learned that peace doesn’t come from being validated by people, but from trusting Allah with what’s misunderstood, unseen, or unappreciated. "وَاللَّهُ يَعْلَمُ وَأَنتُمْ لَا تَعْلَمُونَ" “Allah knows, and you do not know.” (Qur’an 2:216) Some clarity comes from speaking. But real peace comes from letting go. Your turn: What’s one thing you had to stop doing to protect your mental peace? 💭

Salaam Everyone, Day 2 of learning motion graphics in Blender 3D! I’ve recently started learning motion graphics in Blender, and this is a loop animation I created on Day 2 using Geometry Nodes. Still early in the journey, but exploring procedural workflows has been really exciting so far. Geometry Nodes open up so many possibilities for creating complex, organic forms with full control and flexibility. I’m currently following tutorials by Ducky 3D, which have been incredibly helpful in understanding procedural workflows. This piece is part of my daily practice, focusing on learning node logic, shapes, and motion rather than perfection. A long way to go, but consistency is the goal. More experiments coming soon. 🚀

If you start your day with reels, games, or Netflix —you’re training your brain to avoid effort. Entertainment before work isn’t relaxation .it's escape. What works better:• Do your most important task first• Work in silence, no notifications• Give 60–90 minutes of full focus• Use entertainment only as a reward You don’t need to quit fun . You just need to earn it. Discipline is choosing long-term respectover short-term pleasure. Question: Do you use entertainment as a reward — or as an escape?
