[Continued from previous post] The 1st habit is being pro-active. For more explanation, read the book :) but just a snippet here and my own addition from another tazkirah: Part of being pro-active is being aware of what you can actually change and do and this almost ultimately means that the only thing you can change is yourself. There are 3 types of people: people who controls/fight/jihad against himself, people who are slaves to themselves and their whims, and people who interchanges between controlling and slaving to their ownselves/whims. The first lot, also known as mujahid linafsi (fighter against ownselves/whims), have the following characteristics:
1. Knows that controlling his whim is key to success,
1. Knows that controlling his whim is key to success,
2. Is charitable and not greedy,
3. Is thankful of his providence,
4. Totally depends on his Lord on all aspects of life,
5. Mind that is open to the truth and willing to embrace it.
The slaves of their whim are those who:
1. Is greedy,
2. Is never thankful of his providence and often lament his luck,
3. Does not think that he need his Lord,
4. befriend syaitan - indulge in sins.
The last lot - the people who interchanges between the two states - make up the majority of the people in the world. The degree of interchangability varies between individuals and it is prudent for one to achieve success to have a greater degree of control of one whims rather than slaving over them.
