Therefore, to enter Paradise and to survive punishment , must follow the last of the Prophets and Messengers, mohammed ﷺ ..We also believe in all the heavenly books such as : The Bible , the torah , the zabor ...

Including proper habits with the Golden Trio ( Diet, Exercise and Sleep) and 2. Working on my Attention Residue, by batching my tasks together or focusing on one tasks at a time. This was an amazing video thank you.

    Very inspiring video! I learned the following (notes for myself):
    1- Have a plan (block time and have a goal either long and/or short term)
    2- Know how you feel (it's about awareness so practice meditation and FBR method if you're a content creator)
    3- Stop multitasking (finish A, then proceed to B)
    4- Take breaks (focus for 52 minutes and rest 17 - or just focus until you loose it - deactivate notifications)
    5- The golden trio (Diet, Exercice and Sleep became like a cliche - focus on the hardware before the software)

What helped me was filming myself while doing random activities (like washing dishes) and narrating what I was doing or thinking at the time. I didn’t show these videos to anyone, but I was watching them from time to time. After a while, I started feeling more natural and confident around the camera and it did help when I was doing reels or going live. You just need to get used to talking into the void basically 😅.

    Ali, I work in an industry where I have to read contracts that are very important for my company not to lose money and they are not very fun, it’s feels a lot of pressure to understand everything. I have a method that it’s like going to the gym, but for my brain. What I find very useful it’s to have a different task that brings my brain to that concentration stage ( a task that I enjoy, it could be reading something I found very interesting or doing some math related tasks) when I am already very focused, I switch to read those contracts. Right now after I begin using this method for a long time (like 15 years), it’s just takes a few minutes to feel ready…. Literally 3 to 5min. If I want to make it fun, I put a very relaxed music with natural sounds. You should try it and let me know if works for you!

I put all 5 points down in my exercize book/ journal. AND THEN, I got stuck into my Astrology audio lesson with a stop at the 55 min mark.I repositioned my 5 shelf book shelf to give my desk more space in the break. Then I did another 45 mins to finish the tape. It really worked. !!!!! Plus I subscribed to your channel.

    This entire video is golden, but if one just applied the first 1:24 minutes to their life, it would changed drastically! For years, I struggled with being distracted and I didn't realize until recent years, that distraction was keeping me from the fear of success! There was a part of me that actually feared success and this was such a blessings when I recognized it, because it's what I've used to help family, friends, and even clients overcome this fear. Thank you for not only providing resources that people can use, but I thank you for showing yourself in these different examples in your videos. Many creators operating at high levels like yourself, rarely share their struggles and things that are challenging for them. I appreciate you being vulnerable and showing exactly what you do. This makes you so much more relatable in my opinion. Keep up the great work and continue inspiring others like myself!👍
