This was needed. I am memorising the Holy Quran. And I have always been keen to track the streaks. And every single month i fall. But I was harsh on myself and continues to punish myself with the 'dont break the chain, do it anyway'.

This week, I shared my concern over my falling off to my mentor. And he told me to come back quickly. And that it's okay and normal to fall back but come back.

I was just going through substack notes and I saw one about this thing, and saw your article in the comments. Came right away and done reading. And feels a lot better. Got comfort. Thank you, May God bless you
