DAIRY OF AN OPTIMIST
by SH. MUIZ BUKHARY
30 Aug.2015 (15 Zulkaeddah 1436H):

  1. The most 'optimist genius' ever walk on earth is Muhammad s.a.w. :
Despite being an orphan, suffered loss of his loves ones (parents, grandparents, beloved uncle, wife, children) thrown out by his people but he was still a caring neighbour!
Despite being pelted with stone during the 'taif incident'..he still make beautiful doa for the people of taif and their offsprings.
We can be optimist & successful  if we follow the manual of Muhammad s.a.w.

  1.  Three (3) steps to be an optimist:
Step 1 - look at everything from a positive angle. after all life is about perception.
·         'Thomas Edison said, 'I have not failed. I just found out 1000 ways why it does not work'.
Step 2- render gratitude.
·         The fact that I have clean water to drink, a family, value little things in life etc.
·         (14:7)'If you are grateful, I will surely increase you [in favor]; but if you deny, indeed, My punishment is severe'.
·         'render gratitude' by obeying Allah = stay away from what prohibited.
·         'render gratitude' by staying in good thought zone. the Prophet s.a.w. said,
“Allah the Most High said, ‘I am as My servant thinks (expects) I am. I am with him when he mentions Me. If he mentions Me to himself, I mention him to Myself; and if he mentions Me in an assembly, I mention him in an assembly greater than it. If he draws near to Me a hand’s length, I draw near to him an arm’s length. And if he comes to Me walking, I go to him at speed.' (hadith qudsi).

A beautiful story of gratitude told by the speaker 
(read here : Story of Gratitude)

 .... So, the righteous man, Abdullah, peered in and saw a very old man. The man had no hands and was blind. On top of that, he was paralyzed. All he was saying as he sat there was:
الحمد لله الذي فضلني على كثير من عباده تفضيلا
“All Praise is due to Allah who has preferred me (in blessings) to so many of His slaves.”

Step 3 - cultivate and live in a positive environment.
·         Start with getting rid of all the 'crabs' in our life (negative people, things)
·         - keep things simple (minimalistic). de clutter your mind. mind that are so occupied can not concentrate.


May Allah make it easy for us to be an optimist. aamiin...
