TAKE OPTIMIST AS YOUR CHOICE

Bismillahirrohmaanirrohiim..
- O P T I M I S T – When we hear that single word, our mind must be fulfilled with

“ The positive way that will bring someone into success ” . Unfortunately, we often ignore it as the way of our thinking in this life. Because sometimes, we forget that Allah SWT has already gave us so many potencies. As a human, we are more potential than another creatures, because we’re awarded three big natural potencies : brain, body, and soul. Because of that, we’re supposed to use it optimally in order to worship Allah SWT and fulfill the obligation as His servant in this world. Actually, as a human, everyone has the same chance to use, even to improve those potencies that was given by God The Almighty, Allah SWT. This is related in the Qur’an as follows:

 “ It is He Who created you from earth, then from a drop of sperm, then from a clot of blood, then He brings you out as infants, then so you may achieve full strength, then so you may become old men – though some of you may die before that time – so that you may reach a predetermined age and so that hopefully you will use your intellect. It is He Who gives life and causes to die. When He decides on something, He just says to it, "Be!" and it is.” (QS. Al Mu’min : 67-68)

From these verses we know that Allah SWT gives us potencies and opportunities to fill our life with. So that we can get survive in life and optimalize all the chances we have. As the human whose Allah SWT gave more potencies than another creatures, we are obligated to worship Him and fight to do the best in our life. Besides that, we are told the true purpose of creation in the Qur'an which Allah sent down as a guide to His servants. This purpose is to serve our Lord Who created us and allowed us to live. Allah describes this purpose in a verse of the Qur'an as follows:

… I only created jinn and man to worship Me. (QS.  Adh- Dhariyat: 56)

We have to believe that Allah SWT will give us the way of success if we keep in our struggles and fights to reach our goals, and of course with all pray to Allah SWT and let Him decides the result of our struggles. An optimist person will look the life with different thinking from others, he will think that life is such A GREAT CHALLENGE that has to be faced and solved. And of course then, an optimist person will use every chance to do the best in his life. Although life contains tears, difficulties, and obstacles, an optimist person will consider that as his chance to improve himself in every breath he takes on many aspects from his life. An optimist person will never give up, because he believes that Allah will always be inside him. He also trust in Allah SWT because he knows that Allah will give what he wants if he asks Him by praying . As Allah SWT promised in Qur’an : 

If Allah helps you, no one can defeat you. If He forsakes you,who can help you after that? So the believers should put their trust in Allah. (QS.  Al 'Imran: 160)

We will test you with a certain amount of fear and hunger, as well as loss of wealth and life and fruits. But give good news to the steadfast. ( QS. Al Baqarah : 155 )

So, it was exactly explained by Allah SWT in Al-Qur’an about His almighty. Allah SWT will test us with some difficulties, like fear and hunger, and He respects for those who are able to face and solve it patiently. Allah SWT is the only one decider of every goal that we put our expects in. Sometimes we are not aware about this. But lately, if we try to learn about the purpose of life, we will understand the meaning of life. That we have to be an optimist person who keep in faith with the destiny that Allah SWT promised to us. Because great struggles will produce great results. Hopefully, to get all pleasure and help from Allah SWT, we are supposed to always working hard and fighting to reach our goal. Remember that Allah SWT will give the best result for them who never give up and always optimist. So, Keep fighting and Keep spirit to reach our goals!!! May Allah SWT bless us.. and finally..

Just Take Optimist as Your Choice.. ^-^
