POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

My journal from 2015 Fifteen years old and already writing plans like I had my whole life sorted 🤣

Here’s the thing though. Most men stopped writing anything down years ago. So there’s no record. No way to look back and see if you’ve actually moved or if you’ve just been restarting the same thing every few months.

If you had written down your goals three years ago, I’d bet they’d look a lot like your goals today. Same weight you wanted to lose. Same five daily prayers you wanted to stop missing. Same “I’ll get my sleep sorted next week.”

That’s why I still write. Not to feel good. To catch myself when I’m going in circles.
Get a notebook. Write down where you are today. Read it back in six months and be honest with yourself. by @riazuddin__

New gym plan. New Quran target. New savings app. Three days in, one bad shift, you miss Fajr, and the whole thing goes in the bin.

Then you’re sat in the car after work scrolling, telling yourself you’ll start properly next week.

You’re treating one missed day like the whole week is ruined. So you never string more than three days together, and at 33 you’re carrying the same regret you had at 25.

A bad day is one bad day. Pray, walk, do your work properly, read something. Tick off what you can. Tomorrow you go again.

Look at your phone.
 Instagram is one tap away. TikTok is one tap away. Deliveroo is sitting right there on the home screen.

Now look at the things you say you want. Your gym bag is at the back of the wardrobe

Your Qur’an is on the top shelf. Your trainers are under the bed. That business idea is in a notes app you haven’t opened since January.

Every bad habit you’ve got is set up to be easy.

Every good one you want is set up to be hard.

Then you wonder why the bad ones win every single time.

Swap them round.
 Gym bag packed by the front door the night before.

Qur’an on your bedside table. Instagram off the home screen.

My dad grafted seven days a week. Factory in the week, takeaway kitchen on weekends. He did everything he could for us, with what he had.

Our dads didn’t have the information. We do.

So the best way to honour what they gave up is to keep their work ethic and look after the body they never got the chance to.

Decide who you are now. Someone your kids look up to at 30, the way you looked up to him at 7. by @riazuddin__

Don’t be a slave

A slave to your nafs & worldly gains

The most respectable way for a man to lose himself is to succeed at the wrong thing.

And I say that as someone who lived it for years.

You convince yourself that all the hours and the sacrifice are for the people you love.

Yet those same people end up with the most tired and distracted version of you, long after your best has gone somewhere else.

Most men only wake up once the damage is already done.

And by then, it costs so much more to put right.

Most guys in the UK have this very problem below.

You wake up tired. Not “bad night’s sleep” tired. Tired in a way that sleep doesn’t seem to fix anymore.

The drive isn’t there. The focus isn’t there. You get through the day on caffeine, come home, sit on the sofa, scroll until 1am, and tell yourself you’ll sort it tomorrow. Then tomorrow you wake up feeling exactly the same.

You’re 28. You’re not supposed to feel like this yet.

Here’s what no one told you: your testosterone is the foundation everything else runs on. Your energy, your focus, your discipline, your presence as a man. When that’s low, no amount of “just try harder” is going to fix it.

And the mad part? The Prophet ﷺ gave us the blueprint 1400 years ago.

He fasted Mondays and Thursdays. He moved every single day. He slept after Isha instead of scrolling until midnight. We turned the Sunnah into a list of things we “should” do one day.

He lived it as a system. And that system is exactly what your body was built to run on.

We didn’t lose our masculinity to one big dramatic thing. We lost it on the sofa. One late night, one skipped session, one “I’ll start Monday” at a time.

So I built something to help you fix it.

Comment “SUNNAH” and I’ll send it over to you.

It’ll show you exactly where you’re lacking with your energy, your drive and your focus, and what to actually do about it 📿 by @riazuddin__

Be honest with yourself for a second.

What time did you put your phone down last night?

What were you watching before bed? What came out of your mouth during the day? How many hours went on nothing?

Most brothers I speak to have tried every alarm going. Three on the phone. One on the watch. Phone across the room. They still sleep through it, then feel rubbish about it all morning.

The alarm is the last thing that happens. Everything before it decides whether you get up.

Start tonight. Phone away an hour before bed. Pray Isha, then sleep. See what tomorrow looks like. by @riazuddin__
