I saw this picture on Facebook..
What do you have in mind when you look at it?
Well...
???
It's a good guideline isn't it?
But, is there any problem with this photo?
Hmm, I wonder.... :-/
Guideline/s and support is what you need to get you going.
But... let's look at this particular verse in the Qur'an.
"Verily, Allah will not change the good condition of a people as long as they do not change their state of goodness themselves."
(13:11)
Oooo... Snap~ >.<
So, what does this mean?
It means.....
Come on, I need an answer... !(^^)!
It means that change has to come from within...
It's about your cognitive perspective (psychological term for the way you think.)
In fact this cognitive thingy is what gets you going.
The way you perceive of yourself in the future, the way you look at yourself and so on.
Don't bother looking for what works best to change you...
Cos those things only works, given that you already have self conscious to change yourself.
Before looking for ways, look into yourself first.
If you don't want to change, don't blame your surroundings.
It's like you're trying to erect a house by using a stick instead of pillars and walls.
It won't stand.
It won't stand.
I talked to some people...(anonymous...hehe)
I asked them, (simple example) "When will you get your weights down?"
And he answered,"When the time comes."
Ok, just so you know, "When the time comes" simply means when you decide to change.
If you don't decide to change, the so - called "When the time comes" will never come... even if you die, and live again.
And this applies to every changes that you want to make.
Make the "time" comes by making your attitude change.
Once you do that, then it's time to look for ways to help.
At this particular moment, the support will help you.
Even if you fall during your journey...
You will eventually rise back up again and continue your journey.
Once you decide to change, guidelines and support will facilitate
It helps you to channel your motivation in a right way.
It can be in any form, as long as it doesn't go against the shari'a framework.
"So ask to those who know (the experts) if you do not know (about something)."

To recap
- Change comes within yourself.
- You can have the best motivator, the best counselor, the best therapist but it won't do you any good if you don't want to change.
- Search for your motivation to change.
- Then only you look for ways to make it happen.
Quoting Gandhi....
Be the change that you want to see in this world.
*Just my personal view and from what I've learned. Happy 55th Independence Day people. Lots of love from Adelaide to all Malaysians. A tribute to all the historical figures who went through such tribulations to gain independence.
I wonder, maybe they have developed the same motivations as well.. Just my two cents.. haha.
