If you have an idea, execute it, even if it won’t turn out perfect.

Ihsaan is not perfection, it’s excellence. Strive your best, but tolerate mistakes as well. Only Allah (سبحانه وتعالى) is perfect.

Don’t be like the shopkeeper who keeps the door to his shop closed all the time in order to keep it clean. No customers enter. If you’re always closed and looking for perfection, you’ll shut down.

When in doubt, kick-start your project as “Version 1.0″ and build on it.

I ask Allah (سبحانه وتعالى) to help us all execute our projects to bring benefit to the people, ameen.
