Sometimes we delay in understanding some important stuff even if some influential person in our life (like parents , teacher etc) is telling us about that.
One Aayat of Quran says:
رَبَّنَا ظَلَمْنَا أَنْفُسَنَا وَإِنْ لَمْ تَغْفِرْ لَنَا وَتَرْحَمْنَا لَنَكُونَنَّ مِنَ الْخَاسِرِين
(Our Lord, we have wronged ourselves, and if You do not forgive us and have mercy upon us, we will surely be among the losers).
So don’t blame others and always make urself responsible and owned for every situation , even if that results in bad also .
One more thing that we should always do ….. we shd work hard with positive intent , with our full potential , trust the process and feel result to Allah !
