when you believe...

There are times in our lives when we feel like it is soo impossible to achieve something..when we feel like its is so hard to move the limbs in our bodies to start something..when we feel like it's better if we just stick to what we usually dio and jgn nak gatal2 make a change.. semua ni sebab we doubt ourselves ie we dont believe in our true potential. I have experienced this too and I believe that I will experience more of it in my life..because I guess it's normal to feel insecure or unconfident.. the only thing that makes the difference is whether or not we let these feelings take control of ourselves.

To be honest, when I was in secondary school, I never thought that I would actually achive some of the things that I have achieved till today. Being in a school where all students are smart academically, there were many times when I doubt myself..I always felt inadequate and that sometimes I felt like I don't belong..so I just said to myself..'hey, why bother..after all I'll still be the same'..BUT i did not let this thought cloud my judgement. I love to dream..and when I dream..I dream big. Some people say that it's'not good to dream..but I believe from DREAMS come MOTIVATION..and from there comes EFFORT which will then lead to SUCCESS. Maybe it doesn't work with everyone..but for me, at times it does. However, the dream must be realistic..I mean don't dream of something that is totally out of your capabilities because you will end up frustrated instead!

Most importantly, what has made me preservere in my endeavour is that I BELIEVE in myself. I BELIEVE in hardwork and I BELIEVE that if I work hard..Allah will help me. That's what I think we should all believe in. Some people just pray for the best but when they pray, do they really believe that Allah will help them? or when they pray, do they work hard to achieve what they pray for? Tawakkal is one thing (because apa2 pun Allah yang tentukan) but as we know..without usaha..we will never achieve anything. Please..I am not saying that i am great and that I have acheived many things because I believe in myself or that I work hard..NO. I am not using this as a medium to brag. I just feel that I should share what I think is good..for the benefit of all of us. So friends..lets BELIEVE in ourselves..and do our best in everything that we do. Because when we believe..somehow we will...
