A day in which one fails to help a fellow Jew lacks the substance of a day! ~ R’ Moshe of Kobrin zt”l

Improving yourself does not mean that you have to be 100% better in 1 specific thing.  It means that you have to be 1% better in 100 things.

There are two things you should never worry about:

1. Something you CAN change; and
2. Something you CAN”T change.

That covers EVERYTHING! ~ Rav ‘Gav’ Friedman

It is impossible that davening in shul…should cause us to miss out in the parnasa that was decided for us.  So why does a Yid go to the phone before davening? He isn’t going to use the phone to remind his friend to come to the minyan — the real reason a phone was created…

He thinks that his hatzlacha is based on what he does: If he gets the businessman in time, it will be good. But the truth is that when we first daven and learn something, and only afterwards go to the phone, that is when we get Hashem’s bracha! ~ Lubavitcher Rebbe zt”l

“The mouth is the quill of the heart” ~ Chovos HaLevovos.

On this, the Chofetz Chaim explains that the mouth expresses the contents of the heart.  A mouth that spews venom can only be the outlet of a heart that produces it.

The inequality in the distribution of wealth is one of the great benefits that Hashem provided to mankind.

If everyone was equally wealthy, nobody would work and human affairs would be in the doldrums. It is only because people need money that is in the possession of others that they are willing to do things. Money is thus the incentive to doing all the things that men need for each other. ~ R’ Avigdor Miller zt”l

The rest we have on Shabbos is not merely rest from work on that day alone.  Rather, it has the ability to give us peace of mind all the days of the week. ~ R’ Eliyahu Mei Bloch zt”l in Shiurai Daas

A person can see more with eyes of faith than with those of the head. ~ The Kotzker Rebbe zt”l

Regardless of where you are physically, the state that you will presently be in is determined by your thoughts.  Your emotional reality depends upon the focus of your mind.  Mentally go to a place where you will automatically experience the state you wish to be in. ~ R’ Yeruchem Levovitz zt”l

A pleasure seeker mistakenly thinks that the only way he can be happy is by successfully gaining everything he desires.  The opposite is true.

The only way to have a guarantee of happiness is to learn that you can be happy even though you are not able to acquire everything you desire. ~ R’ Zelig Pliskin
