People often mistake success for the absence of ‘mistakes’ and ‘failures’.
U can see it in the approving smiles for perfect resumes and unblemished career paths. Yet what really matters in success is the end result. Not how u get there. Most people who have so called perfect resumes and unblemished career paths also lead ordinary lives with minor yearly salary increments and muted improvements like the occasional car/house upgrade.
The Donald Trumps, Robert Kiyosakis, Richard Bransons and even Syed Mokhtars of the world on the other hand, faced bankruptcy, lawsuits, poverty.. ups and downs as deep as the valleys and as high as the mountains… yet in the end their triumph is far greater than mere mortals’ – billion dollar empires, worldwide fame and power. The truly success-driven don’t care about how they get there, only that they do get there.
So the next time someone looks down at u for not living an unblemished life, be it in career, personal finance or anything else, smile and remember that they have the common man’s thinking while u are planning for greater things to come.

U are not like any typical human being out there.

very inspiring. in many successes there're a lot of thorns they faced
Kejayaan di dunia kerapkali di ukur dengan harta, kuasa dan nama.
Tapi kejayaan dunia yg sebenarnya bukanlah diukur sebegitu. Kejayaan tidak diukur dari sakit kepada sihat, dari susah kepada senang, dari miskin kepada kaya.
Tapi kejayaan dunia diukur kepada sejauh mana seseorang itu taat pada perintah Allah dan menjalankan hidupnya sedekat mungkin dgn cara Rasulullah saw.
Islam membebaskan manusia dari perhambahaan kepada barang2 yg dicipta kepada menghambakan diri sepenuh-penuhnya kepada pencipta.
Dari yg pasti dan pasti akan musnah, kepada yg pasti dan pasti kekal abadi.
Dari kesempitan dunia kepada keluasan akhirat.
Dan kejayaan yg hakiki ialah bila makhluk terlepas dari seksa neraka yg menggerunkan dan dimasukkan kepada syurga yg nikmatnya tiada tolok bandingnya.
Harta dan kuasa seringkali menjadikan manusia bongkak. Sedangkan dia asalnya keluar dari saluran kencing, akhirnya bangkai, dan diantaranya hanyalah penanggung najis.
Moga Allah beri kita hidayah utk cari kejayaan dunia, dan kejayaan akhirat,
