What a week! I'm in the middle of my first week of classes, but my goodness, I can tell this semester is going to be taxing. I'm taking some really interesting courses that I am actually really interested in, but I'm already very, very tired. I've been reunited with my friends, I've had good talks with my rebbetzin, and I've enjoyed walking all over this beautiful campus.
- "There Is No Messenger in a Case of Sin": N/A
- The Power of Goodness: N/A
- Teach Your Child a Profession: N/A
- Teach Your Child That What Matters Most to God Is Goodness: I feel like this really ties into the "Can a Religious Person Be Cruel" section.
- Don't Give Away Too Much: N/A
- Can a Religous Person Be Cruel?: N/A
Day 239: The Antidote to Arrogance
Imagine the audience in their underwear. They are now feeling less confident than you are considering their half nude status. This isn't necessarily an example of arrogance; it is simply an example of how a simple thought can lead us to perceive ourselves as better, smarter, more attractive, etc. than others.
Instead of taking the easy way out meeting people only to point out their flaws to yourself or your friends, why not meet people and tell yourself "wow, they're so organized", "I like how she did her makeup", "I really respect how much he knows about this subject." It can only bring you positive thoughts to think positive things of others. That's your challenge this week.
