One of the most profound statements I ever heard was goal minus doubt equals reality. Basically,

if you have a goal in mind and this has a worldly component but to us we

johnify it. If you have a goal in mind, the less doubt that you have the more that that's your

current reality. And one of the things that can happen to a person is that if they're unsure

of johnna, then they might get tempted by the so-called johnna of this world, right? Like you might

think to yourself, am I really holding back? Am I really missing out because of something that

might not even be there? But when you build that yirkin, that certainty in your heart,

not only do you no longer feel like you're missing out, but you look forward to realizing

what others are actually missing out on.

I'm going to be the Khatab, radiallahu ta'ala anhu. Walks in upon the Prophet's life,

very famous narration. And Rasulullah, the greatest man, in fact, the greatest creation to

ever live rises from his bed. And his bed, salallahu alayhi wa sallam, is made of these branches.

And he has just this pillow that's palm stuffed. And when he rises from his bed, the Prophet's

life, salallahu alayhi wa sallam, who should be living like a king in this world, right? When he

rises from his bed, he has marks all over his back because of how uncomfortable he is,

and his hujurats, what are they? They're smaller than probably what some of your closets are.

And al-Mu'r alayhi wa sallam starts to cry. And Rasulullah, salallahu alayhi wa sallam says,

why are you crying? Oh, al-Mu'r, why are you crying? And he says, Ya Rasulullah, I've seen the

palaces of Kisra and Persia. I've seen the palaces of Caesar in Rome. And you're so much more

deserving of that. And the Prophet's life, salallahu alayhi wa sallam says, are you in doubt, O al-Mu'r?
