Assalam-o-Alaikum everyone! 🌸 I’m happy to share my 13th practice reel with all of you. With this project I have started my journey into Motion Graphics. Inshallah I will keep moving forward step by step and continue to make my editing skills even better. This is just the start of a new chapter for me! A very special thanks to my mentor @Raima Zainab JazakAllah Raima I truly have no words to thank you for your incredible support.❤️ Thank you for creating such an amazing learning plan for us it is because of your constant guidance that I am growing every day in my video editing journey. ❤️❤️ Your feedback is very important to me so please watch it and let me know what you think ✨ How much would you rate my work out of 0/10 ? https://drive.google.com/file/d/1BJOtv7ZgsaLzO7DUQhBDuhaz0DJygRbG/view?usp=drive_link

Aaj ki ayat hai: وَعَلَى اللَّهِ فَتَوَكَّلُوا إِن كُنتُم مُّؤْمِنِينَ Meaning:Agar tum waqai momin ho, to Allah par bharosa karo. Is ayat ko parhte waqt dil mein yeh mehsoos hua ke Allah SWT hum se sirf iqraar nahi maang rahay… Allah hum se reliance maang rahay hain. Sirf yeh keh dena ke “main Allah ko maanta hoon ya maanti hoon” kaafi nahi, balkeh mushkil waqt mein dil kis taraf bhaagta hai....... yeh asal sach batata hai. Kabhi hum kehte hain ke hum Allah par yaqeen rakhte hain, lekin jab PRESSURE aata hai to pehla reaction PANIC hota hai. Kabhi PHONE utha laitay hain. Kabhi hum OGON KAY WORDS dhoondte hain. Kabhi hum MOOD ke neeche dab jatay hain. Kabhi PLANNING fail ho to lagta hai sab khatam ho gaya. Tab samajh aata hai ke masla zaban ka nahi… ANCHOR ka hai. Anchor woh hota hai jo tufaan mein jahaz ko behne nahi deta. Aur DIL ka anchor woh hota hai jis par banda mushkil waqt mein RELY hai. Agar hamara anchor PRAISE ho, to criticism hila deta hai.Agar anchor FAMILY MOOD ho, to unka rawayya humein gira deta hai.Agar anchor PAISA ho, to shortage tod deti hai.Agar anchor ROUTINE PERFECTION ho, to ek din kharab ho aur hum bikhar jatay hain.... Lekin agar anchor Allah ho… to banda rota bhi hai, thakta bhi hai, confuse bhi hota hai… lekin TOOT'TA nahi. Yahi TAWAKKUL hai. Tawakkul ka matlab bas “Allah dekh lega” kehna nahi.Tawakkul ka matlab hai: - effort lena - asbab ikhtiyar karna - dua karna - phir dil ko Allah ke hawalay kar dena Yani kaam bhi karna hai aur dil ko bhi sambhalna hai. Kabhi kabhi hum busy bohat hote hain... ghar, family, kaam, responsibilities... lekin andar se tawakkul weak hota hai. Kyun ke busyness aur FAITH aik cheez nahi. Busy banda bhi andar se broken ho sakta hai. Aaj seekha ke حَسْبُنَا اللَّهُ وَنِعْمَ الْوَكِيلُ sirf lafz nahi. Yeh sahara hai. Hasbunallah = Allah hamare liye kaafi hai. Agar log samajh na sakein — Allah kaafi hai. Agar delay ho jaye — Allah kaafi hai. Agar plan fail ho jaye — Allah kaafi hai. Agar koi saath na de — Allah kaafi hai.

Breaking your comfort zone does feel hard because your brain resists change 🧠💭 Comfort zone break karna is like strong habit. habits only shift with consistency, not pressure 🔄 A habit is: something your brain has repeated so many times, it feels normal and safe 📱 Scrolling ---- habit ⏳ Delaying --- habit Your brain prefers what’s familiar because familiar = low effort + predictable ✅ That’s why even if something is not good for you… it still feels easy to go back to 🔄 People say “break your comfort zone” like it’s some intense battle ⚔️ Honestly? It’s more like shifting from one home to another 🏡 At first, nothing feels right ❌ You don’t know where things are Simple tasks feel harder than before Everything is slightly uncomfortable 😕 You lowkey miss your old space… even if it wasn’t that good 🏚️ That’s exactly what happens when you try to start editing, build a habit, or do anything new ✨ The problem is… When shifting homes, you understand: you won’t set everything perfectly on day one 🕰️ You arrange slowly: one corner at a time 🧩 But with “habits,” people expect: “I should feel settled immediately” ⏱️ This is where resistance shows up ⚡ Resistance is that moment when you try something new and suddenly: 😴 you feel lazy 🔀 distracted 💨 tired for no reason That’s not random. That’s your brain saying: “This is unfamiliar… let’s not do this.” It’s protection, not failure 🛡️ Why pressure, perfection & expectations make it worse ❌ When you say: 🎯 “I need to do this perfectly” ⏳ “I should be better by now” ⚡ “This has to work” Your brain reads it as high risk ⚠️ And what does it do with risk? It increases resistance. Now: 🪨 starting feels heavier 🚫 you avoid more 🌀 you overthink more Not because you can’t do it… but because you made it mentally too big 🧱 The truth people miss 💡 You don’t break habits by force. You don’t leave comfort zone by pressure. You shift by: making things small enough that your brain doesn’t fight back 🪄 No pressure to be perfect ✅

Sometimes when I feel empty inside, Namaz becomes a struggle too. And then one thinks okay what is the solution for this. And normally the routine at days like these becomes no more than doom scrolling or jumping from one youTube video to another, I have to work on this thing.

I reached Level 6. Strange. I’m the girl who wouldn’t talk to anyone unless it was absolutely necessary. When I finished 10th grade, I remember there were girls in my class I had never spoken to. Not once. The same thing happened in college I always had my small group of friends, and I only talked to them. If someone approached me first, fine, I’d respond. But I never initiated. I was that introverted girl. When I joined this community, my first anxiety was: “To level up, I’ll have to like and comment? Why would I like or comment on random people’s posts?” Fine, I could hit like. But how would I comment? On the introduction post, I was so confused: “Is this really necessary? Can’t I move forward without it?” But obviously, it was a must, and I had to post it. Starting from that intro post and now reaching Level 6, it’s been such a wholesome experience. Talking to so many good people here has, no doubt, been a really good time. I approached some people in the community myself first to know what to do further something old me would’ve never done. So today, I’m celebrating myself. Because Level 6 isn’t just a number. It’s proof that I did the things that used to terrify me. I posted when I was scared. I commented when I had nothing to say. I showed up when hiding felt safer. The girl who finished 10th grade with classmates she’d never spoken to just built connections in a community of strangers. That’s not strange. That’s growth. Good to be here.🫶🏻
