Assalamu’alaikum everyone! This week's episode covers a wide range of topics from understanding our relationship with regret, love/logic & more. One of the important concepts being how perspective drives performance. This also applies when we try to define success in the dunya. the most common definitions of success at a worldly level is to be at peace. reality is, no matter what you have, even if it's everything you dream of & more, you will never be 100% at peace for a long period of time in the dunya. the dunya will forever be changing, somedays you will win & somedays you will lose. regardless, learning to be content drives you to true success. content with the fact that things might go your way, be grateful. content with the fact that when things don't go your way, there is something better.

content with the fact that this dunya is just a part of the destination, not the destination itself.

Ibn Umar reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Be in this world as if you were a stranger or a traveler along a path.” Ibn Umar would say, “If you make it to the evening, do not wait for the morning. If you make it to the morning, do not wait for the evening. Take from your health for your sickness, and from your life for your death.”
