The spirit of Ramadan is in the air. The mosques are getting full, charity organizations are gearing up for their busiest season, and the sweet scents of your favourite Ramadan sweets are coming from every Muslim household and Ramadan food stall.
With so much excitement and energy in the air, it’s easy to be enthralled by it all and not harness this excitement and enthusiasm for your personal development. But this would be a huge missed opportunity for true self-development.
Ramadan provides the type of self-development environment that helps you overcome any motivational challenge you may face in developing yourself. It is a challenging month because of fasting and late-night prayers; it allows for many moments of self-reflection through Quran recitation and the extra time you spend in the mosque; and it brings families and communities together to support and encourage each other to do good.
