Shalom and welcome to your daily dose of Rambam.
Today’s thought is a powerful reminder from Hilchot De’ot. It speaks about finding balance in our interactions, neither showering excessive praise nor harboring unwarranted negativity towards others.
The Rambam teaches that constantly praising someone, even for simple things, diminishes the value of genuine praise and can breed arrogance in the recipient. Similarly, always highlighting the negative, even in small matters, fosters negativity within us and can lead to strained relationships.
Strive for honesty and sincerity in your interactions. Recognize both the good and the bad with a balanced perspective.
