No detours around

Obstacles

There isn’t a meaningful goal that can be achieved, without facing obstacles and hurdles. It’s an

inevitable part of life’s road to success. The more you come to grips with this, the faster you’ll get

where you want to go!

Instead of seeing difficulties as the end of your dreams, see them as part of the journey. View

obstacles as challenges, which, once overcome, will bring you closer to your destination. Refuse

to be stopped – keep focusing on where you want to go.

When the going gets tough, remind yourself that snags build wisdom, perseverance and strength.

With this outlook your frustrations will transform to motivations and success will come your way

more quickly.

The prophet (saws) said: "Be mindful of Allah, [for] you will find Him before you. Get to know Allah in prosperity, and He will know you in adversity. Know that what has passed you by was

not going to befall you, and that what has befallen you was not going to pass you by. And know that victory

comes with patience, relief with affliction, and ease with hardship." (Tirmidhi)
