I had a thought, which I wanted to share. Muslims often get caught up in striving to implement big projects, whether connected to religion or the world, such as building a Mosque. Even though aiming high is encouraged in Islam, one should always bear in mind not to overreach in their goals. When one overreaches beyond their resources attempting to implement their big idea they often fall short of achieving it. Instead, it is often better to aim high but within the limits of one’s resources. It often occurs that when one has a habit of aiming high and overreaching, due to a lack of resources, nothing gets accomplished. So they move from one failed project to the next without achieving anything good. Whereas, the one who aims high but limits themself within their resources, often achieves their goal. And they move from one small project to the next, achieving positive outcomes. Many small achievements then end up being my impactful than a potential large yet single achievement. This is one the reasons why Islam encourages one to focus on quality instead of quantity. For example, the Holy Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, once advised that the most beloved of deeds to Allah, the Exalted, are those which are regular even if they are few. This has been confirmed in a Hadith found in Sahih Bukhari, number 6464.
Finally, the one who aims within the limits of their resources is less likely to give up doing good and positive things, as they are more likely to achieve a positive outcome than the one who overreaches and aims beyond the limit of their resources.
