It’s all good, we say.  And yet, in truth, our tendency is to first look at the bad, isn’t it? Think about it - if you saw a bad movie, or had terrible service in a restaurant, or someone did something to you that you didn't like, how many people would you tell? Research shows you'd tell about 35 people. Good news?  This is usually spread to far fewer people.

Today, focus on what’s right, what’s good in life.  The closer you look, the more you’ll find what to love.

"Kabbalists ask why the revelation of the Bible and its secrets of immortality were revealed in the desert as opposed to a city. The reason is that the desert has no borders or boundaries. There is no personal property in a desert. Everyone is equal; everything is open; and a person can go in any direction without anyone ever stopping them. In other words, the desert represents absolute freedom. This is why so many evolved ideas could have developed only in the desert and why so many great people went into the desert for inspiration." -Karen Berg

Today, take down one personal border that separates you from other people.

Kabbalah teaches that our soul always knows what the right thing is: be it our soul mate or what to order for lunch. But we get lost in our thoughts and make things more complicated then they need to be.

Keep it simple today. Do and say the first things that come to mind. They're usually the right ones.

"When a person feels tired, what exactly is it that's tired in that person? The soul does not tire, nor do the atoms tire. Fatigue, like other limitations of the physical body, is an expression of the body's desire to receive. This limitation does not, however, limit the inner quality of man." — Rav Berg

Start today by taking control of one selfish desire - it might be for coffee, cigarettes, approval, or the need to keep a 'safe distance' from your fellow employees - and show your body who's boss - your soul. Know that the body's purpose is to prevent the soul from staying connected. Time to take charge!

The reason we study Kabbalah is because we want more control. The principles — restriction, sharing, being proactive, charity and taking risks - give us more control. That last component is essential - the risk! It's all about the action. A successful person is someone who goes to the edge — and jumps right in.

You have a choice — to be someone who is alive, or someone who is living. Taking risks put us in the alive category.

Do you want something incredible to happen today? Bring it on by stepping outside your box. Do or say or be one thing that doesn't fit into your normal way of existing.

A spiritual path can become an attachment if it becomes a habit. We have to choose it over and over again so that it doesn't become this; otherwise it's religion, not spirituality. If we lose our consciousness, it's not spiritual.

Today, approach your studies and connections in a brand new way. Do this and you will find brand new miracles, too. 

Saying you’re sorry does not remove the other person’s pain.  Apologizing does not prevent you from having the same reaction again under different circumstances a week or two later.  To correct a pain you caused another, you must eradicate the trait inside yourself that caused you to react in the first place.

Today, work on eliminating one negative trait from your nature.
