As we know, we need to struggle to achieve great things. The harder the struggle is, the better the outcome becomes. Everything takes time. We cannot expect everything to magically fall into place by doing a righteous deed. U need to depend on Allah and trust what He has plan for u is the best u can have, for this life and here after. 

First thing u can do if u want to achieve something is Solah and Du'a. Sometimes we forget that we need Allah's help and strength to guide us. We think we can do it in our own without His help. We forget that the strength is from Allah. So, in everything we do, dont forget Him. We need to ask Allah to help us and guide us to the right path.

Second, stay away from negativity or something that Allah doesnt love. If u are around friends that make u sin and disappoint Allah, then u need to get them out of your life. Pernah dengar ni? 

Third, stay connected to the Quran. Read it everyday or if u can, memorize it. (im still struggle for this). Strive for the best. If u have Quran terjemahan is better, u can reflect the meanings and it will give u answers to your daily life complications. 

Forth, if u can wake up every night... u can perform at least 2 rakaat every night. try this. set alarm and wake up every night to perform your solat sunat at least 2 rakaat. every night. Bcos at this time u are very close to Allah. U ask anything  InshaAlah He will give u at the right time. do it every night and lama lama u akan terbiasa and u tak payah set alarm lagi, u akan terbangun sendiri. try this. 

Fifth, tawakkal. this is the last. U serah everything to Allah. U just do the best and then left everything to Him. 

that's all. i know im not good enough but im struggling to this too. everytime. this is what my mother do everyday. and i just influenced from her. Thanks to my mother. she is my great idol.
