A few personal and a few religious, especially as Ramadan is sneaking upon us:

Personal:
1. Continue to hit saving and investing goals (esp. for a down payment)
2. Lose a bit of holiday weight (basic I know)
3. Less screen time + try to read a book every month (used to be an avid reader but now it’s become only WSJ)
4.Try to regrow some hair (and/or look at hair transplants) 😂

Religious:
1. Try to be consistent with Fajr Namaz (this is the only one that I actively struggle with)
2. Take the wife and parents for umrah. I was blessed to do this for the first time solo last year, and would be blessed to share the experience with loved ones
3. Try to read a bit of Quran every day (including in English) and memorize a few more surahs
4. Read up more on Islamic history

Thank you for sharing, these are so noble and pure. May allah give you the strength and sustenance to complete all of them!

Happy New year. This year I am working to save for a house and not spending money on things that I do not need.

There’s no excuse that by the age of 25 you have never tried therapy. I’m speaking directly to the demographic in this group who I’m sure over 95% of people in here are earning 6 figures. Key word: TRY. I understand it’s not for everyone but to have never even attempted seeking therapy is a injustice to yourself and the people around you.
