Favorit 1 Pada Kontes Blog Muslim

Alhamdulillah. Awalnya cuma iseng-iseng saja mencari ide tulisan untuk blog ini, namun ternyata malah membawa berkah. Karena lagi blank ide untuk nge-blog, saat itu saya googling "lomba blog" dan dari beberapa lomba blog yang ada saat itu, saya menemukan satu yang menarik: Kontes Blog Muslim.

Semangat Berkompetisi

Hidup, bagi saya adalah sebuah kompetisi, kompetisi dengan sang waktu, dan kompetisi dengan sang maut. Manakah yang lebih dulu, maut yang menjemput saya, ataukah saya yang berhasilkan memenangkaan kompetisi lain sebelum maut menjemput. Senada dengan hal ini, Al-Quran pun mengabarkan bahwa kita adalah umat terbaik,
كُنْتُمْ خَيْرَ أُمَّةٍ أُخْرِجَتْ لِلنَّاسِ تَأْمُرُونَ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَتَنْهَوْنَ عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ وَتُؤْمِنُونَ بِاللَّهِ وَلَوْ آمَنَ أَهْلُ الْكِتَابِ لَكَانَ خَيْرًا لَهُمْ مِنْهُمُ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ وَأَكْثَرُهُمُ الْفَاسِقُونَ

Kamu adalah umat yang terbaik yang dilahirkan untuk manusia, menyuruh kepada yang makruf, dan mencegah dari yang mungkar, dan beriman kepada Allah. Sekiranya Ahli Kitab beriman, tentulah itu lebih baik bagi mereka; di antara mereka ada yang beriman, dan kebanyakan mereka adalah orang-orang yang fasik. (Q,S Ali Imron:110).

Berdasarkan filosofi menjadi umat terbaik dan semangat berkompetisi itulah (sekaligus mencari ide tulisan untuk blog dan mengisi waktu luang dengan kegiatan positif), saya memutuskan untuk mengambil peran pada kontes blog muslim tersebut. Saya pun mulai mencari ide, menyusun strategi dan men-submit tulisan saya satu persatu.

Life is competition, Let's do the best to be the winner..

That is my favorite words, my goal in my life, to do the best, even be the winner...


Because we live in a very competitive world. Everybody seems to be competing with someone at some level. Each week we spend hours playing or watching others compete in sporting activities all over the world. We cannot help being impressed by the level of excellence that these people achieve.

In all aspect, for example in sport and business, competition encourages excellence in performance. Where there is no competition, improvement in performance is less likely. We have lived through an era where governments have held monopolies in business. With no competition from free enterprise, services deteriorate. Monopolies create sloppy business practices, less innovation and higher prices. Business performs better with competition. Costs and prices decrease. Some level of competition is necessary in all aspects of life.



We are not in competition with any other person

The God creates us different each other. But, every one has the same chance to be success in his or her world. So we do not have to compare ourselves with others. We do not have to become discouraged because we think that someone else is better than we are in a particular area. The essence of our being is equal to that of any other person.There is only one person that can fulfill our role and that is us. This means that others cannot beat us to the finish line because there is no race. This is not to say that others do not have a similar role to us, but it is never the same. This is important to understand if we are going to enjoy life. Every human being is unique and cannot be duplicated. In this, I am not referring to the body, only to the spirit, soul, or the essence of a person.
