THE MOTIVATOR

*Learning Life From a Tree* (Moral Message) A gardener tries to do a simple research. He grows the same 2 crops on the same land. The only difference is how he takes care of the plant. The *first* plant is watered regularly every morning and afternoon while the *second* plant is watered every 2 days. When the plant grows big enough, it's time to test the strength of the roots. *The difference is quite stark* It takes less than 2 minutes to remove the roots from the first plant. For the second plant, it took more than four minutes to pull it out! *Why did this happen?* *first crop* simply spoiled with water that he can easily, so that the roots do not try to look into the deeper soil. *While the second crop* because it gets less water supply, then inevitably the roots look to the water source, so that they find the roots are much stronger because they go deeper into the ground. *MORAL MESSAGE* *God's way of educating us is not much different from the illustration.* * Just imagine if GOD pampers us by granting all the prayers we ask for or never allowing suffering and life's problems.* Of course this will make us spoiled. Not only that, we will be crybaby. * As a result, the roots of our faith are not strong and when problems occur, our lives fall easily!* * GOD loves us very much, that's why HE always matures and trains the roots of our faith.* Allowing suffering, trouble, life pressures or unpleasant circumstances, in the hope that the roots of our faith continue to seek the true "Source". *Do you choose to be a spoiled person with fragile roots?* or become a person who is matured by God? *WITHOUT PROBLEMS, WE WILL ONLY BE BROKEN PEOPLE AND HAVE FRAGILE ROOTS OF FAITH!!*

MATE IS UNIQUE Often the chased away, The one who accidentally approached. Which seems certain to be in doubt, What was initially doubted became certain. What you always dream of does not end in marriage, Who never dreamed of being on the aisle. That's God's scenario, life is like a story I play my part, you play your part It's just that we don't know what the end of the story will be Just enjoy the journey, because everything has been measured and it's impossible to change In the end what we can learn from life is how Accept the situation without having to hate reality Follow the flow and enjoy the process Learn more calmly enjoy life with a process without protest If in the end you are not with people who often you mention in your prayer Maybe you will be with someone who is secretly often mention your name in his prayer Marriage is fate and love is destiny. You can plan to marry anyone But you can't plan your love for whom. because no matter how beautiful your plans are, your God's plans are even more beautiful

The biggest motivation comes from yourself... Make motivation as an encouragement To change life for the better. Because.. No one is successful without a process.. Never fall Never fail Never be afraid of failure.. Because failure is what will make us know, how to fix something to make it even better.

THE TONGUE IS SHARPER THAN KNIFE 

How can a buffalo die just because of GOSSIP After returning from the fields, the Buffalo lay in the cage with a tired face and heavy breathing. Then a dog came, and the buffalo said: "Ah... my friend, I am very tired, if I may tomorrow I will just take a day's rest". The DOG left and on the way he met a cat, then the dog said: "I met a buffalo earlier, he said he wants to rest tomorrow. It's appropriate because the boss gives you too much work". The CAT then told the goat: "The buffalo complained that the boss gave him too much and too much work, tomorrow he doesn't want to work anymore". The GOAT found the chicken and he said: "The buffalo doesn't like working with the boss anymore, maybe he already has a better job." CHICKEN also met the monkey and he also told the story: "Buffalo will no longer work for the boss and want to work elsewhere". At night, MONKEY met the Boss and said: "Boss, recently the buffalo has changed his character and wants to leave the boss to work for another boss". Hearing the monkey's words, the BOSS was ANGRY and without further confirmation, he immediately slaughtered the buffalo because he was considered to have betrayed him. Whereas the buffalo's original saying: "I'M TIRED AND TOMORROW WANT TO REST FOR A DAY." Through some *friends* this speech has changed and reached the boss to become: "The buffalo has recently changed his character and wants to leave his boss and work for another boss". So what does that mean??? Sometimes ONE TALK STOP is enough to reach our ears and DON'T HAVE to reach other people's ears. DO NOT Swallow it whole or just believe it EVERY NEWS or other people's words even if it comes from the mouths of those closest to us. We need check the TRUTH before acting or deciding something, confirm directly to the source. THE HABIT OF FORWARDING WORDS/news from others by adding or subtracting them or replacing them with our own perceptions & assumptions CAN have FATAL RESULTS. If in doubt with the words / news from someone or anyone, we should ask directly to the person concerned to CONFIRM THE TRUTH.

SELF-MEASUREMENT

Insulting doesn't make you look nobler

Dropping doesn't make you look taller

Bad-mouthing doesn't make you look better

Blaspheming doesn't make you look great

Instead, it makes clear who you are and what your character is

Humans are not perfect, don't compare your life

with other people's lives and don't feel better than others

It could be that the person you think is bad turns out to have a good side

but you don't know

Just pray so that no hatred is created in the heart.

Because every soul has its light, there is no need to turn off the soul's light

others just to look shinier than him

Every soul has its goodness, there is no need to vilify other souls

just to look better than him

Every soul has its net, there is no need to drop another soul

just so that your path feels more spacious than him

Because being great doesn't mean you have to be the only one

The sky is too wide to accommodate all the stars to shine

with uniqueness

Don't worry, just focus on yourself. .

Live this life with joy, don't compare life

us with others, because life is a journey not a competition.

Life is not about who is the best, but who can do good

and not pretending to be good

Calm down, no need to be jealous, we each have our share,

A life that looks luxurious is not necessarily really beautiful

Keep on going, as long as you are on a good path, even though sometimes

kindness is not always appreciated. "

The way God loves you is sometimes not by giving you life in abundance, but by giving you a life full of simplicity, because God wants to lighten your reckoning.

God's way of loving you sometimes is not by giving you health, but by giving you pain, because God wants to erase your sins.

God's way of loving you sometimes is not by giving you happiness and comfort, but by giving you various calamities and trials, because God wants to raise your degree later in heaven.

The way God loves you sometimes is not by granting what you want, but by delaying your prayer or replacing something else, because God knows that there is danger behind what you ask for.

For that, keep husnudzon to Allah, for all the difficulties, illnesses, tests, difficulties and failures that you face.

Because the road to heaven is not easy.

It takes a test so that we get a lot of rewards from Him.

It takes patience so that we get His blessing,

It takes pain so that we get His forgiveness,

It takes sacrifice so that we get a high position in His heaven.

That's sometimes the way God loves you..

Even some wounds are created not to heal, so that they can be meaningful lessons and if we are sincere, we will get a reward.

So be patient with all the fates that you face, Truly in the end you will understand that behind everything that Allah has outlined, it turns out that there is a lot of happiness and goodness.

HOPE WE CAN LEARN FROM THIS STORY

A father said to his son: "You have passed the exam with the best marks, this is the car that my father bought many years ago. I love him very much and now I will present it to you".

The son saw a rather shabby car, abandoned in the old garage.

"But before dad gives it to you, take it to a used car shop and tell them you want to sell it and see how much they will offer you.

 

The boy went to a used car shop and returned to his father and said: "They offered me Rp. 18,000,000 because the car was not maintained and looks very old"

The father then said, "Try to take it to a pawn shop." The child went to the pawn shop, then returned to his father and said: "The shop only offers Rp. 1,800,000 because the car is very old."

 

Then the father asked his son to go to the car club and show them the car. His son took the car to the club, came back and told his father: "Some people at the club offered Rp. 360 million for it, because it was a Nissan Skyline R34. An iconic car and sought after by many people.

The father said to his son: "DAD JUST WANT YOU TO KNOW, THE RIGHT PLACE AND PEOPLE WILL JUDGE YOU FOR THE RIGHT VALUE"

If we are not appreciated, don't be angry, it means we are in the wrong place. Those who really know know how to appreciate. Don't wait too long in our unappreciated place. Don't waste your time dealing with people who don't value you.
