The greater danger for most of us lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short; but in setting our aim too low, and achieving our mark.
Michelangelo Buonarroti
This is the one of the best quotes I ever read. I think I first came across this a decade ago but it is still fresh in mind as if it was yesterday. The best thing I like about this quote that it pushes you to your limits. I think there is no time for laziness in this short life whether you are religious or not. Most people settle for less in their spiritual and Worldly life because they get tired and lazy and cannot be bothered about achieving that top spot that everyone should be going for. This does not mean that you become materialistic and you should always have the latest Iphone, or have the latest Lamborghini but what this means is having your goals and aim set so high that you have to really push yourself to get there. It should not definitely be just a 9-5 job and come home, watch tv and that’s it.
We humans should strive for bigger goals like eradicating poverty, child abduction, fighting racism and Islamophobia. As a Muslim, I think we should have even higher goals and help fellow humans selflessly to get closer to Allah and attain Jannah inshaAllah
