• Liking / dislike has nothing to do with important

The Concept of TRQ1
The degree of success of a person is
directly proportional to how well he
can convert his Q2s into TRQ2s and
treat them as ‘TRQ1s’.

Suppose one wants to build a houseSuppose one wants to build a house
•Requirements•Budget•Location•Hiring an architect
“ We can safely conclude that it is
unwise to start building a house
without a vision and a plan ”
Just as it is unwise to start building
your house without a plan, it is unwise
to start your day, your week, your
month, your year and your life without
a vision and a plan
We at Timelenders suggest that before we start our day we should invest………
¬At least 45 minutes to vision and plan our day.
¬At least 4 hours to vision and plan our week
¬At least 8 hours to vision and plan our month
¬And at least 3 days to vision and plan our year.
I don’t have 45 minutes in the beginning of the day?

Planning, planning and planning
“It is better to plan for a year and execute in a day than to plan in a day and execute in a year.”
¬ Focus and unity of decision
“Think a 100 times before you make a decision but once you make a decision stand by it as one man.”
¬ Flexibility in strategy (Sprint VS Stalk)
“Life is not a sprint, it’s a marathon.”
“Planning is not an expense, it’s an investment.”
“Planning is not predicting the future; it is the best course of action.”
¬ What race are you in?
“ To do something in a fashion
that in the available resources
cannot be done better.”

Excellence
Excellence (Ihsan)Tafseer Maariful Quran, Mufti Muhammad Shafi says about Ihsan:The last sentence of the verse (195): (And do good. Of course, Allah loves those who do good), gives an incentive to do everything nicely. The Holy Quran calls this Ihsan. Now, doing something nicely, can take two forms. When Ihsan relates to Ibadah(worship), its meaning has been explained by the Holy Prophet himeself in the well known hadith of Jibrail where he said that ‘ you should worship Allah as if you are seeing him, and if you can not achieve that degree of perception, then you should, at the least, believe that Allah is seeing you’.And the other form is, Ihsan in managing relationships and transactions with people.
