Bismillah.
And I quote, "avoid regret by lowering our expectations about the
results of our decision.."
"Choose when to choose.. I have chosen to make a choice and after that I will be satisfied with it. In a consumeristic society, we should seek what is good enough rather than always wanting the best because the problem is, there will always be a better item, or a better looking spouse, school, job, etc out there. We should be ppl who say "you know what, that is good enough," NOT to avoid pursuing excellence but it doesn't mean that in everything we need the best bcos with that we will never be satisfied."
The Prophet (pbuh) said, "When you see someone who has more, look to someone who has less bcos when we see someone who has more, we are frustrated but when we see someone who has less, then we feel gratitude."
