Structure and Systems

[00:00:00 - 00:00:01] In the name of Allah, the most Gracious, the most Merciful.

[00:00:04 - 00:00:07] Peace and blessings be upon the honorable messengers and messengers.

[00:00:07 - 00:00:10] Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him and upon his family.

[00:00:11 - 00:00:11] He has given us many blessings.

[00:00:12 - 00:00:18] What is the meaning of structure?

[00:00:18 - 00:00:22] Structure means there has to be a timetable of what you will do.

[00:00:24 - 00:00:31] If you say exams, in two weeks you will have your finals.

[00:00:32 - 00:00:42] What is your structure for getting 4.9 or 4.5 GPA?

[00:00:44 - 00:00:45] What is the structure?

[00:00:46 - 00:00:48] It has to be very specific.

[00:00:48 - 00:00:53] I will wake up at this time, next I will do this, next I will do this, next I will do this.

[00:00:54 - 00:01:02] So say I will wake up at 4am, I will pray with the Holy Prophet, make dua, read some Quran, pray some Fajr, then I start studying,

[00:01:03 - 00:01:07] I study for two hours, then I have breakfast, I study for two hours, then I have something.

[00:01:07 - 00:01:10] And this complete structure for the whole day.

[00:01:12 - 00:01:14] And then you must follow that structure.

[00:01:14 - 00:01:17] It's not enough simply to write a timetable and then throw it somewhere.

[00:01:18 - 00:01:24] No, write the timetable and follow the timetable, which will get you to the end result.

[00:01:25 - 00:01:30] If you don't have that structure, then the intention alone will give you some kind of good feeling,

[00:01:30 - 00:01:32] yeah, well I have a good intention, I am working very hard.

[00:01:32 - 00:01:33] What is very hard?

[00:01:34 - 00:01:36] There is no such thing as very hard.

[00:01:38 - 00:01:40] There is no such thing as very hard.

[00:01:40 - 00:01:45] You are working effectively or unaffectively, that's it.

[00:01:46 - 00:01:47] Ineffective work or effective work?

[00:01:47 - 00:01:51] Effective work means that there has to be a structure and you are working according to that structure.

[00:01:54 - 00:01:54] Right?

[00:01:54 - 00:01:55] Follow the drill.

[00:02:00 - 00:02:01] Follow the drill.

[00:02:02 - 00:02:11] If you take the greatest and most successful armies in the world,

[00:02:12 - 00:02:19] all of them have only one thing in common, and that is they fought according to structures.

[00:02:21 - 00:02:25] Not because of passion, not because of over-the-bill, but because of the drill.

[00:02:27 - 00:02:27] Structures.

[00:02:29 - 00:02:37] And they overcame the enemy who was equally brave if not braver, who was equally passionate if not more passionate,

[00:02:39 - 00:02:46] huge numbers, well armed, sometimes better armed than these armies, but they lost because there was no structure.

[00:02:48 - 00:02:49] Take the Robaragi for example.

[00:02:49 - 00:02:51] 2000 years they ruled the world.

[00:02:52 - 00:02:53] Right?

[00:02:53 - 00:02:54] Almost unbeatable.

[00:02:56 - 00:02:57] Why?

[00:02:57 - 00:02:59] Because of the discipline of the Roman legions.

[00:03:00 - 00:03:01] They were brutal.

[00:03:01 - 00:03:04] I mean their training was absolutely brutal.

[00:03:05 - 00:03:06] But it was solid.

[00:03:10 - 00:03:11] It was solid.

[00:03:13 - 00:03:23] A Roman soldier, a Roman legionary, a regular Roman soldier, his armor, his weapons, and his utensils on a march,

[00:03:23 - 00:03:26] what they carried was 50 kilograms.

[00:03:28 - 00:03:38] And with that 50 kilograms they marched, walked 25 miles in a day in six hours.

[00:03:41 - 00:03:49] And at the end of 25 miles they built a temporary fort, then they camped, put their tents, and they ate their food.

[00:03:49 - 00:03:51] They did this every single day.

[00:03:53 - 00:03:55] So what is the level of physical fitness?

[00:03:56 - 00:03:57] What is the level of strength?

[00:03:59 - 00:03:59] No half days.

[00:04:00 - 00:04:00] Today is Sunday.

[00:04:01 - 00:04:02] No,
