What If We Fail in TeShuva? Advice In Investing And Serving HaShem

how can a person help themselves who is trying to do chuba and be observant but then a month later they go back to their old ways over and over again of course a person has to not only do chuva you know at first but they have to continue doing chuva every time they fail they have to fix themselves and uh figure out a way how to not put themselves in the same situation failing is part part of the journey the key is not to fail the same failure over and over again it's just like in business you know everyone is going to fail on the way to the top everyone is going to fail on the way to the top the key is not to make the same mistakes over and over again where let's say for example you're in a business world and you did a you know partnership with somebody without a contract and then you saw that didn't work out so well so now when you go back into business again and another partnership comes up don't make the same mistake and saying okay no agreement this time have an agreement but now you signed an agreement and a new thing happened what the uh the agreement was uh too strong or too weak or too long so don't make the same mistake again with somebody else with the next thing same concept with Chua you're going to fail on the way to the top the key is not to keep failing the same thing over and over again for 20 years fix yourself see what causes the problem you see that you're failing in regards to morality so aside from stopping you have to see what's causing you to go back to it is it going to specific places is it talking to specific people is it watching specific things you see the trigger points whatever your trigger points don't obviously don't trigger yourself and think this time it's not going to happen it's like an alcoholic that wants to recover the only way to truly recover is not just not drinking anymore but they also have to change friends they have to change phone number they have to change location they have to change Hobbies they have to change their use of time you know it's it's and they can't make their whole life just about recovery go occupy yourself with something else so a person has to know how to not repeat the same mistakes over and over again by reviewing their actions and once they review their actions and they see this is where I failed this is where I succeeded this is uh you know where where I did good this where I did bad they'll succeed I even see this uh you know one time I saw it in a uh Trader that became very successful he turned I don't know a very small amount of money into like $15 million and uh like very small like U $110,000 or something like that he turned into $15 million and of course he had many many failures along the way uh but uh you know one of the main things that caused them to be successful over the longer period of time is that he logged all of his mistakes every time he made a mistake where he was too stubborn on a trade or he was too uh you know uh committed to something or too big of a trade too small all of these different things he actually wrote it down and he reviewed them and every time a mistake happened he saw did I do the same mistake again or not and he became very very particular about reviewing himself and holding himself accountable to his mistake and that's literally that was the secret of his success his secret of success was not that he never failed again he certainly failed but he limited repeating the same mistakes over and over again and that's one of the keys to success in business in marriage and certainly in servitude of hem the greatest investment that a person can possibly do with their money with their resources of time of skill of everything is to invest as much as possible into kiru but not just any kiru by Cube that actually works that actually changes people [Music]
