We're learning relationship flow. One minute. He might want to call in. I'm just double checking. Okay, good. So, we're going to send him the uh audio because he's doing his mitzvah that's in front of him right now. Just he's with his daughter, he should be gaz with some wishing him good energy. And whoever else joins the sh in the future, they should be blessed also. But in the meanwhile, right in front of us, we just had a week away in London. So it's nice to be able to be sitting with my older son and learning a little bit and how to be mab in the morning with the right hashkaf with the right amuna and how that impacts your day and that through that impacts your relationships. Gdalia Fenster who we're going to do a little stickle from said um that two main things that he sees with people struggling with his their relationships and money pan the two main things you know it's all connected to Gisha as well with bris and everything and we just went through that and show with him now in truma we got to start like getting busy serving in the mishkan serving in the b mikd serving in our daily life serving the people around us so gratitude creates momentum says kadalia friends so then we're going to jump back into the momentum is without a doubt one of the most powerful and enematic forces of success. You know what momentum means? It's like energy like you you running and you just feel the the energy going more and more and you get more momentum. If you stop and smoo with someone you lose the momentum you lose the the flow >> the zun or whatever the word is in Hebrew. Our creator wants progressive >> kim. There we go. Music. Yeah. Our creator wants progress not perfection from us. He wants us to move forward. He doesn't want us to be mush. This is why the reb say go forward. Go forward. Remember told the rebal go forward. This is why we begin the morning blessing by saying thank you. See is talking about the same thing about the words is we go call the first. Yeah. >> It's a big part of p. And what is the migill? The halal that we say on pur is the migilla says that in swarm gratitude will always fuel momentum and uh momentum is everything. Your creator wants you moving forward not standing still waiting for perfection. That's why gratitude comes first. It's the engine that drives progress that gets you to be m wake up say thank you. Move forward as the Reb says go forward repeat. Perfection is a strap a trap. It's like a it's a way of getting stuck. Progress is power. Gratitude is fuel. Stop overthinking. Start moving. Momentum will carry you further than perfection ever could. The soul doesn't need to be perfect. It needs you to move. God designed this world for action, not delay. Gratitude grounds you. Forward motion elevates you. Every time you say thank you, you shift from stuck to flow. Let go of overthinking. Begin with one step and keep going. You look back and see the momentum did the work. Perfection never could. The pattern ends where awareness begins. Okay. So, it's very helpful as well with the spoke here. So, let's go. Let's go a few few lines. We're going to do what says do a little bit because the end of the week usually I do this middle of the week or earlier in the week and Hashem gave me the rot to always have to keep up your I learned tomorrow in London with about an hour and I got to do this morning Tanya with the because at the end of the week and and now we're doing the just to keep up the seda never like miss the if you have a commitment do it find a way even a few minutes and here he says it's gaba strengthen yourself like he says strength like line to rise the moon is he awakens the door and it's funny cuz listen black yeah we use this for the for the cover photo I'm doing a pim gig for him yeah and they their logo is a Kodi I think it's called or some sort of lion they asked me if permission if they could use this see all these pictures of a lion look primit yeah see all the lines they took out uh they originally was a lion actual real lions they took out and put it their animal that they use so it's very But it's like it's getting everyone excited about. But the lion you say but lion isn't lion a bit um you know sleepy. So we're going to see we're hopefully learn the Indian of the AR is also Osis Yuro. There's there's a lot to why it's there. It's a lot to the vod why why you need to gab why why the beginning is being able. >> Yeah. Right. Right. It's it's one it's it's connected to the the mo that was mal and we read about it sh says there was four you know images one of them was the pony of a man one of them was an eagle one of them was um I' forgotten one of them >> yeah an eagle and then uh one of them was a lion and I think there was a four but I've forgotten maybe I'm not sure the other image was but here it's talking about actually Funny enough is known from the cabalistic teaching. We've been learning about this already that the light of Shak is called Shaky Shak is an application for the namely Malas because remember this is the whole Indian I wrote about this today when I mentioned I also managed to go back to the gym and swim today. I mentioned that the is coming the shabas why why more than other shabas is because pass is true is resting the so you go much more inside you did the six weeks of shim you built the house now go live in it that's the sixth up down round you build a house there six dimensions now you come seventh is coming in that's truma truma is the seventh para after chauvin you then in schmos now you're in the in the seventh para insight now cohen god was He's got a that's next week's but truma is about going in and that's the shak there's a between the we to learn about this idea and it comes into wholeness with the morning's dawn >> is the highest also the highest is the lowest but it becomes connects to the highest >> is the highest is the lowest but really the is the whole is really the that's the whole when you learn Tanya if you're learning Tanya now is bringing from the highest all the way to the lowest. So really in a way it is the highest because it's bringing the highest to the lowest that's really the bringina into your home into your heart into everything. So that's identified with the sphere of malus because interestingly and also is also connected. So amun is ka is malus it's all interchangeable. So you were right in a way is the highest and so depends how you look at it. Um is known is from the cabistic teaching the for the main perfection of the comes place in the morning. We've had this p before as well. This idea that they renew the mornings your faith your is great. And this is something which Gdali also said today. He said this was he said you have to constantly be present and renew your never rest on the past and rest on what's going to be. You have to be where it is right now. And because Hashem any minute can bring the shea new shea that's how they live with this concept of new sheer constantly new sheer coming down into the to the world. Hashem wants to know this venos this week's para you give Hashem gives there's actually a song from if you want to see it's a wild song about sodaka how crazy it is like in in the world all the back and forth of no you know all the everything going on but the bottom line is it does generate a tremendous the on the kindness and this idea of hashem's has tremendous amuna in us in the morning and he's giving us on the sha back this relates to the zor's teaching that merges in the morning. A muna emerges in the morning. Who's this beautiful maiden that's coming every morning? It's a little cross canal. For this reason, the muna is termed is the main perfection of occurs at the shak at the beginning of the morning. This is where we need to be like the lion. So for to be revol every person must strengthen himself like a lion because really a lion is a even though it seems but when it comes down to it it's like a to study to and pray in order to elevate and complete and increase his amuna really you see like you said the whole toughness really is to grow the amuna holy am you said that I quoted you I think you said one time you said The whole point of to really increase our all these parts going out getting the and now bringing the into the world that is a because if Hashem is there you're having a like you're within you this to an awakening the shak I will awaken the shaka what's that it's aim awake my soul wake the harp and light I'll awaken the shaka by the way that in nun line test is is is a sagula. If you say that and have in mind there's mind you want to wake up it will give you tremendous attri to wake up that time better than alarm clock that's what once sudak said in London he said he said that to me once he said that person gives you cars to wake up early in the morning sent it to me he said it to me 20 six seven eight years ago I still remember in other words through his pre-dawn devotions one should merit to awaken the shaka So this is the idea that which is the aspect of a that needs to be magnified means like like to grow it and complete it until what until the the day that now you're coming a new day for elevation and perfection is then in the early morning hours. It's in that beginning time when everything's renewing safal. One of the things mommy wants me to do and I need to actually actually apply this. Yeah. My soulmate she wants and this is part of the relationship flow I suppose focus. She said I don't want you busy on your phone when you straighten way up. Make the coffee. Yeah. You talk a little bit and go swim. Go do something positive for yourself before getting busy with the phone. And she's so right. It's a big gate to her. I like to check on what's going on and you know have all the things because I'm on Israel time and American stuff going on. The idea is start off the day with something positive, something healthy like coffee for the wife, coffee for yourself, coffee for your friend, do something giving, do something positive, positive, something that's not going to stress. Begin the morning with raious the first thoughts have a big influence on the whole day. So the idea is because it's time of renewing your so it needs to emerge the amuna this musina needs to emerge with the right headsp space let's explain the muna is renewed every morning and therefore we get up before dawn to elevate and magnify through our Torah study and prayer he next specifies the optimal time to gauge and perfect is after midnight so we're going to see that then we're going to get into this whole vote again of we've been talking about this in this Torah but just to end off I just want to mention cats is also had a big the last few weeks since he went to Oman. That's why it's important at some point or make a visit. It doesn't have to love even though that's the best of his hold. But even going like is going or whatever it is. >> Yeah, he's booked. Booked. >> Yeah, he's booked. I got tickets. >> I don't know. He's going to Budapest and from there to Oman >> which is the best way cuz then he can go to Krist he's you know he's the kind of guy who will find a or something. >> I'll be happy to go. >> Yeah, speak to him about it. Um >> so expensive so much and this >> Yeah, but he managed to get a cheap ticket. Ask him about it when you see him on tonight or tomorrow when if he's coming back or he might not be coming back so maybe phone him. >> But the idea is that um I'll show you his tickets. You can see how cheap it is. But the uh the concept of getting going want to go to the saddic like Kev or or go to the live saddics you know I'm going to phone a rebi soon and leave a message for certain issues I need right nowades I wouldn't mind going there at some point I'm definitely going to go purash I wouldn't mind going sooner but we'll see whenever wants me to be by my main thing is when you buy saddics mentioned this he got a big awakening one had a big shave which is part of it I suppose where he just felt like he it broke his broke his himself a little bit being there and speaking certain mash beim but there was another thing and this is all we spoke about publicly it wasn't like it's private thing but I heard him talking about it also the idea that it just sort of woke up his need to reconnect to renew his toy and renew his and the idea is that you constantly got to renew yourself and that is the key like with relationships as well. Like just because you're married or just because you find your soulmate, it's not the work's just beginning. You know, every day your wife's going to need you more intention, more focus. You see, they won't let you. They won't be mo if you not focused. You come in the house and you're distracted on something. They won't be mo. They're willing to focus cuz that's the vod you have to do that moment. They're not going to be mo laziness and all this stuff. You can't just can't you can't just do your own thing. >> Yeah. Like every single arrangement I had in London, I had to like keep to a certain kav because if it went too long then I would be a bay. So everything has to be focused. It's not because she's controlling us the wives. What it's doing is making you focus your time and be more busy with what the hashem is. So you then you tune into what's called alignment and practice and your day now flows. So from the morning you have that amuna and then your whole day flows forward and goes forward in a way not it's not perfect but it's with a and it's with ability to bring the which is your wife your soulmate in the home you have theina with you and the whole day you're busy and everything flows in that way when you try be and you start thinking overthinking like was saying you start trying to be perfectionist start thinking I know better so then suddenly oh the bill bim and then the mlockas and then you can spend three four hours arguing with your wife and get nowhere and accomplish nothing and is it's like this is real life and that's why a muna is the key because it gives you alignment it gives you a tune in to the rot and heashem I felt like that was in England I was a lot of s like that maybe I was a little bit too much busy talking to schmis with people maybe a bit more than I should have but um the point is that you that you have that ability when you even if you get it wrong you can apologize try and fix it realign because we're not perfect but the point is that you your your kavana is to constantly try every day to renew yourself and get attached to and and that's how you your one of your main goals every morning you could say those words with more and more to stop and >> yeah stop just before pause a second yeah just before [snorts] stop very Good mash and bdish.
