What’s said in this shiur
The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi Zamir Cohen’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.
one of the most profound principles emphasized by Judaism particularly the mystical teachings of kabala is the recognition of a person's abilities strengths and potential these are gifts from the Creator enabling us to push forward Act help ourselves and even impact the world the key is to believe and know that these abilities are within us this concept manifests both in the physical natural and psychological realm as well natural and psychological realm as well as in the spiritual realm where one receives Divine assistance let's start with a simple example imagine someone participating in a running competition if they convince themselves beforehand I have no chance of finishing among the top is there any possibility they'll achieve a top spot of course not the body will respond accordingly and the legs will not perform at their best contrast this with the story that made headlines a few years ago about a made headlines a few years ago about a 12-year-old boy found alive under the rubble of a collapsed building after several days a beam had fallen diagonally shielding him when asked how he managed to survive he said my dad always told me no matter what happens or where you are I will do everything to get to you and help you that belief echoed in his mind giving him the strength to endure when a person believes in their capabilities in their Tools in their success they can achieve Tools in their success they can achieve extraordinary results every morning in Jewish tradition there's a well-known practice upon waking even before sitting up in bed one recites the prayer mod Ani it reads I thank you living and eternal King for restoring my soul to me with compassion great is your faithfulness the opening words are clear a person wakes up feeling as though they've been dead unconscious
