Mufti Ismail MenkDon't be distracted by the noise going on. Pause & reflect. You'll realize how much time you've wasted on all that nonsense around you.
About This Quote
This quote is so true. We all have the tendency to be too distracted by the noise around us. When you are in a busy crowd, it is easy to get so lost in the crowd that you lose sight of your purpose. That purpose could be anything from finding an affordable apartment to having an enjoyable lunch with a friend at a restaurant.
The noise keeps distracting us from doing what we came here to do, which is to enjoy ourselves and taste our own sense of self-realization. As you walk through your busy day, make a point to pause and reflect on your aims and ambitions. Take some time out of the hustle and bustle of life to evaluate how well you are doing in achieving those goals, as well as how much progress has been made on those goals over the course of the year.
