LAST WORD

English book, p. 91

By Maulana Wahiduddin Khan

LAST WORD As human beings, we have the capacity to think at a purely intellectual level. We can conceptualise and discriminate between right and wrong, good and bad. The greatness of humanity lies in our ability to think and plan a course of action. As such, it is necessary for everyone to fully awaken their intellectual senses and cultivate their mental faculties for the right way of thinking. Once we start thinking right, our actions will consequently be right. In every person’s life, a time comes when he experiences some sort of loss. People who consider a loss to be just a loss can, through new efforts, make themselves successful once again. On the other hand, people who consider loss to be permanent failure lose their courage and give up. They lack the will and determination to engage in any new action. Which of these two courses of action a person will adopt depends on his thinking. His way of thinking makes a person fail or leads one towards success. Right thinking leads us to progress and development. Wrong thinking leads us in the opposite direction. Our level of thinking determines success or failure.
