Perseverance is the Key with Waleed Kadous

In terms of advice it is 5 words:

1. Istisharah: find the right mentors and seek advice.

2. Istikharah: always turning to Allah for guidance.

3. 'Azm: once you've decided on a course of action, be committed to it until it's time to pray Istikharah again.

4. Sabr: not everything will go smoothly, you need to drive through it sometimes.

5. Tawakkul: know that Allah has a plan for you. You just don't know it yet.
