Hi, I'm Arammy Glazer and this is Cole Gaula. Our sages reveal that Galus and Gaula are not only about history. They are mindsets, inner states of being. The Schlag Kadesh writes, [Music] The moment a person attains genuine knowledge, he's already redeemed. The Zohar says exile means forgetting hem while redemption means remembering him. And teaches exile is when a person thinks of himself separate from hem. Redemption is when he realizes deeply that there's nothing besides him. So Galis and Gula are not just about where we are in history, but about how we live inside ourselves, our inner states of being. Two people can stand side by side in the same world, one in exile and the other already redeemed, depending on their mindset. I want to share with you a story from my own life that brought this idea home for me. When I was 21, I was learning in the mere yeshiva in Yaleim. Over time, I found that the standard schedule didn't fit where I was holding. My kver and I could have stayed stuck feeling like outsiders. We had a lot of friends who were in the same boat as us. Being in mismed at 9:00 a.m. at that age and stage in life just wasn't feasible. But one night, we looked at each other and asked, "Why don't we start our own kabura?" At first, it sounded unrealistic, but we tried. 15 guys joined us. Eventually, it grew to 80. We built our own schedule, chose the topics we were passionate about, and created an environment that inspired us with Shabbatons and trips. What looked like a dead end became one of the most meaningful periods of my life. That was a moment of gula for me. Not because the world changed, but because our mindset changed from seeing only limitation to seeing the possibilities. And this is exactly what I do today at the possibility seminar together with my father Abamto Glazer and the team. I mentioned it not as a commercial but as part of my journey. I've seen again and again how people break free from their old limiting beliefs from their personal gulus and step into the mindset of gula. It's not abstract. It's real and I've watched it transform many lives. So how can you begin to live in a gula mindset right now? Practice gratitude each day. Notice what's already good in your life. Whether it's your family, friends, parnasa, think of the good side of everything. Gratitude shifts your thinking from a scarcity mindset to one of abundance. Reframe challenges. Instead of asking why me, ask what challenge is Hashem giving me here and now for my personal growth. Take one step of possibility. Choose one area of your life where you feel you've been stuck and ask what new possibility can I create here. These aren't massive changes. They are shifts in your perception. And those shifts can change your entire life. The Rambam says, At that time there will be a world without hunger, without jealousy, without war. It might feel far away, but the mindset of gahula is available today. Every time you choose hope over despair, gratitude over complaint, trust over fear. You are already stepping into redemption. The deepest exile is believing you're trapped. The deepest gula is realizing you're free to begin again. The question is, will you live today in Gulos or will you step into Gula? Thanks for watching.
