Be The Best You Can Be!

Those who would like to learn on Skype with yours truly - time is running out as numerous spots are taken. So if you would like to be part of this intercontinental Torah project where a person can learn Toras Eretz Yisrael and ALMOST be back in Yeshiva - this is your chance.

What do you have to lose?
Nothing.
What do you have to gain?
Everything.
Will you become smarter and more knowledgeable?
Of course.
Will you enjoy?
Definitely.
The one thing I see as a barrier that stops people is that "IT REQUIRES EFFORT AND COMMITMENT." It is hard for people to commit to something that will reap them no direct financial or other concrete rewards. I see again and again how people start chavrusas or other learning projects BUT DON'T KEEP TO THEM.

But then again - the ONLY WAY to reach your potential and get to the world of truth with the spiritual accomplishments that are expected of you is to overcome all obstacles in the way.

So if it's not going to be with me - then get a different chavrusa. Keep to the program. CHAZER LOTS! You will see how much it adds to your life.

Daf Yomi [if you learn it] is nice but there is something really special about having a learning seder that revolves less on covering ground and more on understanding and knowing. 25 plus years in Yeshiva and I have not yet experienced a student knowing the material and not feeling accomplished.

PLEASE try it.
