Today’s thought is on mindfulness, from Hilchot Deot. The Rambam says we should strive to be neither overly joyous nor overly sad. Extreme emotions destabilize us. Rather, we should aim for a steady calmness, a balanced approach to life’s ups and downs. This emotional stability allows us to think clearly and act with wisdom. So, as you navigate your day, remember: moderation is key.
