Yusha Evans – How are you really doing

00:00:00 --> 00:00:02

			Hey you, yeah you.
		

00:00:03 --> 00:00:06

			I know it's been a while, so I
		

00:00:06 --> 00:00:07

			just want to ask you, how are you
		

00:00:07 --> 00:00:08

			doing?
		

00:00:09 --> 00:00:11

			Like really, how are you doing?
		

00:00:13 --> 00:00:16

			If that answer is anything other than, I'm
		

00:00:16 --> 00:00:18

			great, I'm amazing, I'm exactly where I want
		

00:00:18 --> 00:00:21

			to be in life, my next question to
		

00:00:21 --> 00:00:23

			you is, then what are you doing about
		

00:00:23 --> 00:00:23

			it?
		

00:00:24 --> 00:00:25

			What are you doing about it?
		

00:00:25 --> 00:00:26

			If there are things in your life you
		

00:00:26 --> 00:00:31

			want to change, start changing them, start enacting
		

00:00:31 --> 00:00:31

			them now.
		

00:00:32 --> 00:00:33

			That's the beautiful thing about life, is that
		

00:00:33 --> 00:00:35

			every single day we have a new chance
		

00:00:35 --> 00:00:37

			to be a completely different person.
		

00:00:38 --> 00:00:40

			We can change our life every single day,
		

00:00:40 --> 00:00:41

			that is an amazing thing.
		

00:00:41 --> 00:00:42

			Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala has given us
		

00:00:42 --> 00:00:46

			this opportunity, and if you're not changing those
		

00:00:46 --> 00:00:48

			things, and if you're at a place where
		

00:00:48 --> 00:00:50

			you don't feel like you're at your peak
		

00:00:50 --> 00:00:52

			yet, or you're not where you want to
		

00:00:52 --> 00:00:53

			be, what are you doing about it?
		

00:00:54 --> 00:00:56

			Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala tells us in
		

00:00:56 --> 00:00:58

			the Quran, in Surah Ra'ad, that I
		

00:00:58 --> 00:01:00

			will not change the condition of a people
		

00:01:00 --> 00:01:02

			until they change what is inside themselves.
		

00:01:03 --> 00:01:05

			So if your answer is not, I'm amazing,
		

00:01:05 --> 00:01:08

			I'm great, alhamdulillah, then ask yourself, what are
		

00:01:08 --> 00:01:09

			the things that I want to change in
		

00:01:09 --> 00:01:11

			my life, and what am I going to
		

00:01:11 --> 00:01:12

			do about changing them?
		

00:01:12 --> 00:01:14

			And let me start today, because today is
		

00:01:14 --> 00:01:17

			that day, not tomorrow, it might not ever
		

00:01:17 --> 00:01:18

			come, not next week.
		

00:01:19 --> 00:01:21

			Procrastination is the killer of our success.
		

00:01:22 --> 00:01:23

			So how are you really?
		

00:01:24 --> 00:01:26

			And if you are not amazing, what are
		

00:01:26 --> 00:01:27

			you doing about it?
		

00:01:27 --> 00:01:29

			Let's get started, brothers and sisters, to be
		

00:01:29 --> 00:01:30

			a different person.
		

00:01:30 --> 00:01:32

			This is an advice I'm giving to myself.
		

00:01:32 --> 00:01:33

			The things that we want to change about
		

00:01:33 --> 00:01:35

			our lives, let's change them.
		

00:01:35 --> 00:01:37

			Let's be that person we want to be.
		

00:01:37 --> 00:01:40

			If you buckle down with discipline for the
		

00:01:40 --> 00:01:42

			next six months, and focus on the things
		

00:01:42 --> 00:01:44

			that you want to change in your life,
		

00:01:44 --> 00:01:46

			in the next six months you can be
		

00:01:46 --> 00:01:48

			an unrecognizable new and different person.
		

00:01:49 --> 00:01:50

			But that's completely up to you.
		

00:01:50 --> 00:01:52

			If you make that effort, Allah will help
		

00:01:52 --> 00:01:53

			you in that effort.
		

00:01:53 --> 00:01:54

			He will help change your condition.
		

00:01:55 --> 00:01:56

			So get at it today.
		

00:01:57 --> 00:01:57

			Don't wait.
