When you are in charge, know you are in charge. When you are not, know you are not. Knowing your place brings clarity, humility, and proper action.Rabbi Wolbe stresses the importance of personal introspection — taking time alone to speak directly and unstructured with Hashem: thank Him, ask of Him, and share your hopes, dreams, and aspirations. In marriage, family, business, and community, everyone must know their responsibilities so harmony can exist. We must know ourselves before entering deep relationships, and we must know our unique purpose in this world — Hashem placed each of us here for a specific mission no one else can fulfill.Key teachings include: we are only travelers passing through this world (like the Chofetz Chaim who saw himself as always traveling and therefore did not accumulate); write a personal and family mission statement and review it regularly; recognize that politicians and the honored in this world are often the lowest in the next, while the humble and trampled-upon are elevated; and understand that the world is “upside down” compared to how we perceive it. Knowing your place with your Creator gives direction, prevents arrogance, and allows you to fulfill your unique role with confidence and joy._____________Recorded in TORCH Centre - Studio B on May 24,  2022, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on July 17, 2022The 49 days we count between Pesach (Passover) and Shavuot are an exciting time for powerful and impactful change.
