Welcome, dear listeners.
Today, we delve into the wisdom of the Rambam, specifically his thoughts on the power of habit from Mishneh Torah, Laws of Teshuva, Chapter 7. The Rambam enlightens us, that it's not enough to simply perform good deeds, but to make them a habit, a part of our everyday life.
Just as we brush our teeth daily without a second thought, we, too, should strive to make our good deeds habitual. Whether it's saying a kind word, giving charity, or studying Torah. Over time, these positive actions will become a part of our very nature, transforming us into better people, promoting a better world.
But remember, the road to good habits is paved with consistency, not perfection. By performing these mitzvot regularly, no matter how small, they will become a part of our routine, just like our morning coffee or evening walk.
So, let us all strive to heed the Rambam's wise words, to not only perform good deeds but to make them a part of our daily routine. In this way, we can truly fulfill the commandment of "You shall walk in His ways" (Deuteronomy 28:9), emulating the Almighty's kindness and compassion in our everyday lives.
