Quranic Reminder for Today
8:45
وَٱذۡكُرُواْ ٱللَّهَ كَثِيرٗا لَّعَلَّكُمۡ تُفۡلِحُونَ
and call Allah in remembrance much (and often); that you may prosper:
اور بکثرت اللہ کو یاد کرو تاکہ تمہیں کامیابی حاصل ہو
Motivational Thought – Focus On Progress Not Perfection
Remember, it’s okay not to be perfect all the time. What really matters is that you’re making progress. Trying to be perfect can sometimes stress you out or make you feel down when things don’t go exactly right. Instead, focus on the steps you’re taking to improve each day, even if they’re small. Celebrate those little victories because they show that you’re moving forward and learning. Progress means you’re getting better, and that’s something to be proud of!
Character Tip – Staying Friendly and Empathic
It’s important to always be friendly and kind to everyone you meet. When you’re friendly, you make others feel welcome and valued. Being empathetic means understanding how someone else feels and showing them that you care. When you treat people with kindness and empathy, you help create a positive and happy environment for everyone. Remember, a smile or a kind word can make someone’s day better, and you’ll feel good too knowing you’ve spread a little bit of joy. Stay friendly and empathetic, and you’ll make the world around you a better place!

Technical Tip – Setting Passwords
Create strong, unique passwords for all your accounts, including your laptop, email, and social media. Avoid using easily guessable information like your name or birthdate. Consider using a password manager like LastPass to securely store and generate complex passwords.
Health Tip – Late Night Snacks
Avoiding late-night snacking is a good habit to develop because it helps you stay healthy and feel better. Eating late at night can make it harder for your body to rest and digest food properly, which can lead to feeling sluggish in the morning. It’s also easier to choose unhealthy snacks when you’re tired. Try to have your last meal or snack a few hours before bedtime, and if you feel hungry, drink some water or have a light, healthy option like a piece of fruit. This way, you’ll wake up feeling refreshed and ready to start the day!

Riddle Answer

Short Funny Story – Timmy The Turtle
One day, Timmy the Turtle noticed that his parents were working hard to clean up their underwater home. There were piles of seaweed everywhere, and his parents were scrubbing the coral with their tiny turtle flippers. Timmy thought it looked like way too much work for just the two of them, so he decided to help out. But instead of using a brush like his parents, Timmy thought it would be faster to use his shell!
He spun around in circles, trying to use his shell to scrub the coral, but all he ended up doing was making himself dizzy and tangled in seaweed. His parents couldn’t help but laugh as Timmy spun around like a top, trying his best to clean up.
Seeing that his plan wasn’t working, Timmy decided to do it the right way. He grabbed a small brush with his flipper and started scrubbing alongside his parents. Soon, they were all working together, and with Timmy’s extra help, they finished cleaning in no time. Afterward, they all had a good laugh about Timmy’s silly spinning attempt and enjoyed a nice seaweed salad dinner together. Timmy learned that helping out, even if it’s in a funny or unusual way, can make the work go faster and turn chores into a fun family activity!
