As the clock ticks towards 2024, a familiar desire to set new year resolutions, this is a reminder not just to think for your individual goals and plans, but to consider a life constructed with purpose and connection to the people and surrounding environment.
This New Year of 2024 comes after very challenging year for some and year of achievement for others.
Therefore, let's embrace a holistic approach to goal setting, one that goes beyond personal ambitions and professional pursuits to encompass the joy of helping the communities who are struggling to achieve to share with them our joy of success.
The Holy Quran, in Surah Al-Maidah verse 2, urges, "Help one another in acts of piety and righteousness. And do not assist one another in sin and transgression." This divine guidance underscores the importance of aligning our goals with compassion and support for our fellow beings no matter of religion or race or colour.
This common sense demonstrated by Victor Hugo, the French novelist, who reminds us, "There is nothing stronger than gentleness, nothing more powerful than kindness, and nothing more enduring than patience." This gentle strength in extending a helping hand is a cornerstone of true fulfilment and life happiness.
Similarly, Khalil Gibran, the Lebanese poet, beautifully articulated, "Give as if you were the richest person on earth. Speak as if you were the wisest person on earth. Act as if you were the humblest person on earth." This humility in service reminds us that true success lies not in wealth or honours, but in the impact, we make on others.
This extend to think on strategic thinking of support as Nelson Mandela, the South African leader, once said, "Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world."
Therefore, In helping others, we not only empower them but also enrich our own lives with the satisfaction of fostering individual growth and positive change.
