A Note to Self



What is our calling ?

 Why go to such great lengths of thinking what to do with your life. Where to go, what major to study, how many years of schooling and compete to excel in order to secure a job that is sufficient enough to raise your offspring and have them experience the same situation ?

Entrepreneurship means creating jobs. 

Our prophet (pbuh) was an entrepreneur himself.

 No wonder starting a business should be our highest public calling.

 Its the best means to stretch ourselves. To learn and adapt continuously. To develop habit. To make an impact. Bringing the most benefit for the greatest amount of people. The community itself.

Just like Allah's word is my beackon of light. I want to be a beackon of light. I feel reckless. greed...

There were alot of areas that I was never good at. Come to think of everything I had and gone through. Allah swt himself has always taken care of me and had given me much more than I deserve. ... At times I always find myself inquiring, whether I can make it not in an organization. In a state of bliss like now its clear which path I needed to take. To obtain my freedom. To produce. In another vision, I thought of becoming where I want to be. In a prominent organization somewhere. Doing something big. Then I realize, its just a scaling of what I used to have. The intrinsic. The difficulties. The conflicts. The dramas. The inspiration that comes along with. Or maybe a slight less. I dont want to be caught up in a corporation doing harm. Squeezing in every penny, over excite markets with its internal dramas. ...
