The Main Takeaway Today Today was the first day of the new year, and I chose to start it with peace and learning. I learned that even when things do not go exactly as planned, like a video not loading, I can find another way to reach my goal. Sleep and Focus - Slept: 12:30 AM. - Woke up: 8:00 AM (Fajr performed). - Focus: I felt very relaxed today. My mind was not racing with office work, so I was able to focus on my spiritual growth and learning. Things I Need to Remember - A calm start to the year sets a good tone for the months ahead. - Motivation comes from within, even on a day meant for resting. - If one platform does not work, stay patient and find a solution. Starting the Day - Most Important Jobs: Food and Exercise - Breakfast (8:30 AM): Tea, paratha, and butter. - Lunch (1:30 PM): Roti and a light vegetable dish. - Dinner (8:30 PM): A nice meal to end the first day of the year. - Activity: I spent most of my time resting and listening to a lecture. I did not do heavy exercise, but I felt mentally active. Ending the Day Good Things That Happened: - I had a very simple and relaxing day, which helped me recover from the fatigue of the past week. - I felt motivated to keep improving my skills and my character. - I successfully watched a lecture by Ustad Ahmed Javaid Sahab. Even though the Skool platform was not working for the video, I did not give up and watched it on YouTube instead. Mistakes and What I Learned: - The Problem: I could have been frustrated that the video did not play on Skool. - The Lesson: I learned that being flexible is important. Finding the lecture on YouTube allowed me to finish my task without getting upset. Prayer and Azkaar Log - Fajr: 8:00 AM - Zohr: 1:15 PM - Asr: 4:30 PM - Maghrib: 6:00 PM - Isha: 8:45 PM Final Thoughts Today was a quiet but powerful start to 2026. It was a simple day without the rush of office meetings or late-night work. I felt a sense of relief and motivation. Watching the lecture by Ustad Ahmed Javaid Sahab was the highlight of my day. His words always help me think more deeply about life.
