Life Balance

Errr.....

There is also something else that we need to balance. To work for the hereafter too. Actually this is even more important. Having said that though, if we are doing our work in the office in the utmost sincerity and carried out our responsibilities well (amanah), then we will have the benefits of both earthly rewards as well as the hereafter. At the same time of course we must not be forgetting the prayers, zakat and sadakah, fasting in the month of ramadhan, and so on....

I find that its not too difficult to do all that if we have the discipline. And the determination to get it done and giving it certain level of priorities no matter how busy we are at the office. The daily prayers I mean. 5 times a day every day. Someone quoted in FB recently that a high percentage of Muslim never did the complete 5 times a day. My guess is most would miss Subuh or morning prayer. Most likely the young ones who would always sleep in. Or maybe Isya' for those who worked late and too tired to even change from their work clothes and gone too sleep before doing their prayers.

Whatever, our religion is actually quite simple. But it requires determination and discipline. And determination and discipline are quite key to our daily life actually if we really think about it. Not just in our personal life but also in our work life.

Take for example for someone who wants to go on a diet. Or someone who want to further their studies. Or someone who want to make good sales. The list can go on and on.

But of course there are those who can do all the above who still fail to do their prayers. That of course is a matter of getting their priorities right.

Well, I told my two girls, when they are looking for a husband in the future, the most important thing is that he must have that discipline and priorities to do their daily prayers.

Of course there are other conditions too on top of that. But I will not go into that. Tee hee.....

Have a good week end people!
