How to Prosper

When you give, you get back. And then some.

Remember that one?

Life is all about circuitry. When we give, we receive more so we can continue to give. When we hoard, we create black holes, and we aren't as prosperous because we don’t have circuitry and flow.

Take a risk today - give. Something that counts. Don’t be afraid to feel the burn--then you have given the universe permission to "burn" (create) an opening for you.

Call Yourself Out

Pay particular attention today to what gets on your nerves - family, friends, colleagues, strangers, even people on TV. The universe is sending you signals, letting you know what you have to work on.

Remember, we cannot see negativity in someone else unless we have it inside. It's like the negativity inside creates a refracting mirror that lets us see it in other people.

Don't psychoanalyze every reaction. Just notice it. And be willing to look at it.

Hurtin'

We hurt people because we hurt.

We can apologize but that doesn't always take away the damage, does it? And it doesn't stop us from hurting again. Until we realize this truth, we will continue to hurt people. Most of us aren't bad people. We're just hurting.

Today, sit quietly for a moment, and isolate the specific pain that causes any suffering you inflict on others.

"Responsibility must be taken for events and we must decide to radically prevent their recurrence by destroying and canceling the desire that caused them. The moment we make this decision, we in fact attain an alternate level of consciousness." - Rav Berg

Make a World of Difference

We've been talking about how the month of Virgo is great preparation for Rosh Hashanah. One of the most important technologies used to ensure the coming year is a great one is owning up to the pain we've caused others. It's about going back to those moments we were insensitive or intentionally cruel and feeling the pain we caused.

Yea - that's a big one.

We may not be able to go back to the exact moments because we may not remember them or even be aware of all the pain we put out there. That's why Rav Ashlag always taught, asking the question is more important than getting the answer. If you genuinely want to own up to your actions, then the Light will offer the clues and hints.

Today, step up your risk taking as it relates to balancing the negative energies you've put into the universe. Pick one person you know for sure you hurt last year and reach out to them.

Making amends now will make a world of difference in the new year.
