Let our intentions be pure and our actions be for Allah and for noone else. Let us NOT do work because someone is forcing us, but DO it because we will be questioned on the Day of Reckoning about how we used our abilities.
No one can attain good livelihood-even if he is so lucky - without passing through misfortunes. Days will usurp the opportunities of those who waste today's opportunity due to their expectation of tomorrow's opportunities. Day's custom is the usurpation of opportunities and the habit of time is wasting them.
Imam Ali (a.s)
