Welcome! Today, let’s reflect on a profound teaching from the Rambam. He emphasizes the importance of intention in our actions. It’s not merely what we do, but the mindset we carry that shapes our deeds. When we perform a mitzvah, we should strive to do it with sincerity and purpose, aligning our heart with our actions. This principle is especially relevant in our daily interactions—whether it’s helping a neighbor or engaging in our work.
