4TH CHAPTER: DONE AND DUSTED! (PART 2)
Referring to my previous post, I don’t see myself as extraordinary. Dato’ Seri Zaini Ujang, the former UTM Vice-Chancellor, published an entire book in just a week. What I’m doing is merely writing book chapters.
For an even greater example, Imam As-Shafie could write and complete a kitab in only three days. That level of expertise is beyond anything I can achieve.
In my last post, I shared how I completed my fourth book chapter, 5,800 words, 16 pages, and 40 references, in just six hours. That marked four chapters in two weeks, a personal milestone. The key lesson? Focus and persistence matter. Avoiding multitasking allowed me to work faster and more effectively.
Maybe our generation, myself included, has lost some of the discipline needed for deep work, or perhaps we’re too easily distracted, making quality writing a slower process. Let’s keep reminding and pushing each other to be better.
