Failure and Disappointment
1.The fact
remains and always be that our existence
in this world is to succeed. We are not
born a failure or in a state of disappointment. Allah SWT created us to
be a Caliph. A Caliph cannot fail and be in a state of disappointment.
2. Even though
failure and disappointment exist, it will only be temporary. Failure and
disappointment is part of the process to achieve success. Success will be
sustainable if it has gone through the success and failure phase. Those who
have not gone through the failure and disappointment phase will not appreciate
and felt fully the beauty of success.
3. This does
not mean that we look forward to disappointment
and failure first before succeeding. All of us do not want failure and
disappointment in our living vocabulary.
We only want success in our life.
Reality in life
1.Every one of
us have had the opportunity to experience failure and disappointment throughout
our lives. Many of us are of the impression that once a failure, he remains a
failure forever with no opportunity to get back on his feet again. No more
chance to recover.
2.
Disappointment and failure crippled all aspects of his life and destroy all
forms of ambitions and dreams. For the students and teenagers, disappointment and
failure is as a result of sociable
activities, being in love and poor studies.
For the adults, it is as a result of career, business, way of life and
marriage. For the elderly, it is as a result of health, religion, wealth and
family relationships.
3. The
consequences are that we believe the series
of disappointment and failure from one
form to another form of disappointment and failure are continuous and cannot be
avoided. For example disappointment in love followed by failure in studies, failure in career spreads
to family and marriage breakup and from marriage breakup it affects the health
and so on and so forth. It is even affecting our religion and way of life. It may even led to
death which is not wanted and warranted.
4.In the non
Muslim countries like Japan ,
China , Taiwan and Korea , the number of people
committing suicide as a result of failure and disappointment is at an
increasing trend from year to year for all age groups. Praise
be to Allah SWT, that this plague is not serious in our communities but the
symptoms are already there.
Tips
1. Migrating
from a disappointment and failure situation is not something simple. A lot of
traps exists for the victims. Disappointment and failure is related to
emotions, spiritual and is closely related to psychology.
2. The ability
to control is dependant on a person’s energy and strengths. We need adequate oxygen
to have energy. We need certain discipline and practices to have strengths. Emotional
strength, spiritual strength, mental strength and physical strength plays a big
role in influencing the level of coping and sustaining of a person’s failure
and disappointment.
3.These
strengths will enable a person to cope and sustain the bad effects from failure
and disappointment. The stronger the ability to cope and sustain from these bad
effects, the better chances will be for all hidden traps to be slowly eliminated. All we need is to
start building up the energy and the strengths.
4.We need to
start eating a proper and balanced diet. We need to start practicing simple exercise like jogging, cycling,
push up and squatting. We need to start attending religious classes. We need to start reading articles, magazines or books. We need
to start memorizing Al Quran, reciting doa and zikir. All these practices will
increase the oxygen content in our body and build our overall strengths to overcome our disappointment and failure.
5.From now on
we can distanced ourselves from the black spots. We start to see the light at
the end of the tunnel. To ensure we can achieve all these we need to think big
dream high and at all times must have a strong heart.
