And peace and blessings be upon the honour of the Prophets and Messengers.
Muhammad and the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, and upon his family and his companions.
Peace and blessings be upon him.
Amma Madhu, we've been talking about priorities, taking advantage of opportunities.
We were talking about WIIFM, what's in for me.
Now think about this.
We are here in Maine, and we're staying in this beachside apartment.
And as you can see here, there are beachside apartments all around the beach, all the way.
We also know that early mornings are very special.
We know that there is...
special concentration of ozone in this early morning air blowing from the sea.
And if you are doing any kind of aerobic exercise here, walking or riding or, you know, running
or whatever, this is the best time and place to do that.
We know that.
Umm...
Yeah.
This is the best use of this time of the day.
So we know all the...
We know all about the benefits of all this.
But see the number of houses that are here, right?
All the way.
And then see the number of people who are actually on the beach at this time.
Okay?
So, I can bet you that probably every single person who is in...
who is in these houses, they know about the benefits of getting out in the morning, going
for a nice walk, and...
And today is Sunday incidentally, so it's not even a question of saying I have to go
to work.
Umm...
They know the benefits of all this.
But how many people are here?
But how many people actually take advantage of that?
How many people are saying that it's not enough knowing about the benefits?
I want the benefits.
And the way to get the benefits is to get out and walk.
Right?
Now, second truth.
Let an hour pass.
And today they are predicting temperatures in the morning.
They are predicting temperatures in the 90s.
So the sun comes out.
The same beach is going to be not a very pleasant place to be in.
It's going to be very hot.
It's not a scrap of shade.
And the absolutely beautiful experience that we are having here will not be there for anyone
who comes later.
So this opportunity, this door, is going to shut.
Maybe in an hour, maybe in two hours from now.
So the question is not only whether the opportunity exists.
The question is to remember and understand that opportunities don't exist forever.
They exist for a short time.
And when the time is over, the opportunity is gone.
No more opportunity.
Now, people who realize that take advantage of the opportunity by going through that door
of opportunity while it is still open.
And those who do not do that, who don't have that foresight, will spend the rest of their
life complaining about how the road is not going to be the same.
And they will be the same.
They will be the same.
They will be the same.
They will be the same.
They will be the same.
They will be the same.
They will be the same.
They will be the same.
There was no opportunity which would be a lie or some other excuse about why they could
not take advantage of the opportunity which still doesn't help.
Because who are you trying to convince and who do you need to convince?
Nobody.
Nobody.
Nobody needs to be convinced.
And nobody frankly gives a damn.
If you lose out in life, who do you think cares?
Nobody.
Nobody.
Nobody.
Nobody cares.
Maybe your mama.
No one else.
Right?
Who cares?
So, the choice is yours.
The choice is yours.
What do you want to do with what has been given to you?
Not moan and groan about it, but ask a simple question.
What do you want to do about what has been given to you?
As a person, I don't have to be convinced.
I can't be convinced.
I can't be convinced.
As I'm walking here, I'm seeing there is a couple there and they have a chocolate lab.
And they also have what looks like a professional photographer who is photographing them.
