#12 How following “The Crowd” limits you and what to do about it
Episode description
When people say “That’s not possible” or “it doesn’t work like that in reality”, often it is a projection of their thinking on what behaviour/action is acceptable in relation to a particular topic which may be limited by their frame of reference. If the frame of reference is formed by the “crowd”- inevitably it will be limited.
Great achievements or habits are a result of a process. This process is likely alien to the masses. Whether it is in Deen or dunya, you have to be willing to live/think differently if you want an outcome such as being a practising Muslim. An example, is memorising the Qur’an. Spending years of studying the Qur’an for 3-5 hours a day is the process. You cannot do what the masses do like watch tv for 4 hours and attain that result.
Look at what the masses do and do the opposite is a general aphorism but warrants some thought.
Another damaging and limiting mindset that Muslims should strive to eradicate.
