Prepare To...?

AMAT VICTORIA CURAM

Some of you might be quite familiar with the statement above, right? For those who didn't, this is a statement carved on a gun in this year action-packed movie entitled 'The Mechanic' starring Jason Statham. The meaning of that respective statement is victory loves preparation.

What exactly is the connection between victory and preparation??

There is a proverb saying, "If you fail to plan, then you are planning to fail!"

Okay,so plan and preparation is quite similar and they share a great deal of importance. Every single action that we are going to make in life, everyday, must require a plan. Usually a mental plan. This is to say that basically, we think and develop a structure of thoughts in reaching or completing our aim of the day! Tricky, isn't it? This is due to the presence of many interference in various forms that'll eventually disturb our flow of actions that we're about to make daily.

Dear people, do treat life like a chess game. Please, I beg to all of you to think carefully and throughly before making a decision as it is like a make or break situation. In a chess game, we make a move in order to clear a path, protecting our important piece (our beloved ones), defeating our enemies and so much more. Life works this way too! There are many possible moves that is available at your disposal but you need a reliable strategy  to conduct yourself in the game. 

However, you must also be cautious and prepare for the unexpected even after you have designed a careful plan. This is due to divine intervention and things that we have no powers to predict or prevent its occurrence. In Islam, one of the pillars of faith is to believe in Qada' & Qadar which is the reason that mere mortals like us can only plan our action but the result of it, for better or worse is ultimately in God's hand. No further questions should be posed as this is how life works. In fact, humans have limitations, right?

Therefore, to achieve our aim, goals and ambition, each and every one of us must put in lots of effort in creating a brilliant plan in order to finally become successful in life! There may be calamity, catastrophe and even interventions that are waiting to befall on us but put on an optimistic glasses and view it as a challenge instead! Always remember that what doesn't kills you actually makes you stronger! Listen to Kanye West's song entitled 'Stronger'. :D

God places the heaviest burden on those who actually can shoulder it. So, don't you ever doubt yourself and pull yourself together! God tests us so that we will know our own worth and values. Instead of yelling "Shit happens!" every time you are miserable, better to put a smile and move on by creating a better plan to become successful in life. Those who still manage to put a smile on their face during the times which they are tested is the strongest! Yeah!
