Ruhainies Selawat 40 Days: Day 33 Update - My Journey, My Reflections
Hey everyone! So, we're cruising along in this 40-day Ruhainies Selawat journey, and I'm here with my Day 33 update. Man, time flies when you're busy, right? I gotta admit, there were days I almost forgot to do my selawat – totally my bad. But I'm trying my best to stay consistent. It's all about building that habit, and honestly, some days it feels easier than others. It’s a marathon, not a sprint, right?
The Rollercoaster of Routine
The first few days were, like, super easy, you know? All motivated and stuff. I felt amazing. Then, life happened. Work got crazy, the kids were being...well, kids. You know how it is! There were days I barely made it to 10 selawat, let alone the full count. I felt terrible. Like a total failure. Seriously, the struggle was real. But I didn't give up completely – small wins, right?
I started using a little reminder app on my phone. That helped a ton. I also started doing my selawat right before bed. That made it easier to stick to. Finding what works for you is key. I also started putting it in my day planner. I'm a super visual person, so seeing it scheduled in my day helped me to prioritize it. It’s all about finding a system that works for you and sticking with it. I mean, even if you miss a day here and there, it's okay; just keep going.
Unexpected Benefits – Beyond the Spiritual
You know, I didn't expect this, but I noticed some positive changes outside of the spiritual realm. I feel more focused and calmer. My stress levels seem lower than usual. I'm not sure if it's a placebo effect or what, but I'm not complaining! It’s amazing how simple acts can have a huge impact, not just spiritually, but mentally and emotionally. That's the real power of consistent spiritual practice.
Here’s what I’ve learned so far:
- Consistency is key: Even if you miss a day, don't beat yourself up! Just get back on track. Progress, not perfection.
- Find your rhythm: Experiment with different times of day to find what fits your schedule.
- Use tools to help: Apps, planners, sticky notes – anything that helps you remember and stay consistent is a win.
- Don't compare your journey to others: Everyone's experience is unique. Focus on your own progress.
- Be kind to yourself: Self-compassion is crucial. Give yourself a break when you need it.
The Power of the Ruhainies Selawat
The Ruhainies Selawat, for those unfamiliar, is a special form of selawat. It's known for its spiritual benefits. Many people believe it brings blessings, peace, and protection. But honestly, for me, the biggest benefit has been the discipline it's instilled in me. It's taught me the importance of consistency and self-care, both spiritually and mentally.
Day 33 and Beyond
So, yeah, Day 33 of my Ruhainies Selawat journey. It’s been a mixed bag—lots of ups and downs, moments of frustration and moments of immense peace. It's a work in progress, a journey of spiritual growth. But hey, isn't that what life's all about? Seven more days to go. Wish me luck. I'll keep you all updated! And remember, my friends, in the words of my grandma, “Keep on keeping on!”. I am sure you’ll find the positive changes yourselves, too.
