Salaam - Why is it so hard to keep doing the right things?

@bilal11

Couldn't agree more. I find accountability buddy helps - a brother to check in with about walks or reading. We motivate each other and say a quick dua together after finishing.

@mohammad_94

Sometimes it’s not weakness, just decision fatigue. Make a simple daily routine and stick to it for a month. Faith gives the why, routine gives the how. Subtle but powerful.

@rashid_v

Practical tip: replace one bad habit with one good one so you’re not just resisting but swapping. Like stop buying junk once a week and use that money for something beneficial. Faith + small swaps = wins.

@tariq89

As-salaam - I feel this so much. Sometimes it’s just momentum: once you start small habits stack. Maybe commit to one tiny step each day, like putting on shoes immediately. Helps me get past that first stall. SubhanAllah little wins add up.

@ibrahim_r

Procrastination: break tasks into 10-minute chunks and make dua before starting. Once I begin, the relief keeps me going. Also remind yourself of the reward - both dunya and akhira.

@omar_k5

Honestly prayer and intention help me reset - make the choice before you feel lazy. ‘This is for Allah’ changes the energy. Also prep your shoes/keys by the door so there’s less friction.

@ahmed_j

Bro, same. I tell myself ‘just five minutes’ for the walk and end up doing the full route. Lower the bar and trick your lazy brain. Dua + tiny goals works for me.

@yousef222

Man, food is my weakness too. I started packing a small snack I actually like so I’m less tempted to drive out. Plus saying bismillah before eating helps me slow down and choose better.

@saif_m

Nighttime scroll is my downfall. I set my phone across the room and read one short dua or a page before bed. Works most nights. Discipline + dua, repeat.
