The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi Alon Anava’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

[Music] we are in the ninth day of a rule and we're going to go back to our list that we initially initially made the beginning of it all is to recap what this list included just as you can have it in your mind and not only that but constantly do it on a daily base is the constantly do it on a daily base is the first part of the list we wrote the mixed vote that that I do and that I'm successful with and on the other side we write all the mixed vote so that I don't do it all but then it's what that I know of that I'm not doing not the mitzvot that I'm not aware of it's a mitzvah I'm not aware of that's a problem to start with but I'm talking about the mitts vote that I deliberately when I take that back that I mean I would say deliberately but then I know that I'm not doing that I'm about to do this not doing that I'm about to do this mitzvah I don't feel like it I'm lazy or whatever it is and I know I'm not doing this mitzvah and that's the most important thing because I'm not talking right now because a lot of people say oh this Mitzvah I didn't even know that I can do or nominee now because of these videos how many emails we're getting what are all this meets what maybe this meets what that I don't know of so forget about right now the middle you don't know this is regardless to these series of video open a book and read one of them it's what I can't tell you all the mitzvahs that they are there there are hundreds of them I'm talking about
