Reminder that you don’t need a reason to relax or spoil yourself. Don’t let negative inner (or external) voices tell you that you have to do xyz in order to be pampered! You deserve it.

Ask yourself: what do you want?. Then figure out how you will get to it. Life is tough, things aren’t going to go your way always. You have to learn that through it all, as long as you are doing everything you can, that is all you can do. It took me a long time and even now to realise this. When it’s meant to be, it will be. When your ready, until then keep doing everything you can, do your part, put in the effort and wait for Allah SWT plan for you.

Sometimes I wish I had as much energy as you to be productive with my research.

Sometimes I wish I was less obsessive and restless about it— I'm absolutely prone to exhausting myself, and the intensity with which l approach research is sometimes more frenetic than productive.

But, I'm working on learning temperance so that I can distribute my energy more effectively and intentionally. We all grapple with our constraints, and that's why it's important to consciously nurture our sufficiency, too. I seem high energy, but it's only ever enough if I let it be.
