Good morning Bitachon of the day ❤️
How many things are we holding ourselves back from achieving simply because we believe them to be impossible?
Many people struggle to achieve greatness in life because of their limiting identity; they don’t believe that they are capable or even supposed to strive for greatness. If we can change our identity, if we can genuinely believe that we are destined for greatness, we would all be able to achieve the impossible.
I have witnessed greatness in my parents' journey. They were both forced to leave Egypt when my mother was just 16 years old and my father was 24, carrying only $20 and one suitcase with them.
They had to begin anew in a foreign land where they didn't speak the language, had no connections, and lacked financial resources. Despite these challenges, they refused to dwell on their past and instead focused on achieving the seemingly impossible. They persevered relentlessly, eventually building a remarkably successful life from scratch. Looking back, I realize they never spoke about their past struggles or shared their experiences. It's as if, for them, their lives truly began the day they established a new and stable existence.
My mom never showed any self-pity; she simply aimed for the most comfortable life possible, seeking prestige and dressing the part. I never sensed that they had endured hardship; they never complained about their past or shared stories of hunger or sleeping on shelter floors. It wasn't until after they passed away that I learned about their struggles.
Hashem granted them the strength and courage to begin a new chapter, guiding them every step of the way toward a brighter future. It's a reminder that despite having everything at our fingertips today, we often struggle to pursue our dreams and goals, holding ourselves back.
Hashem has provided us with all the tools necessary to achieve greatness in life; we just need to want it and be willing to fight for it. You have to take initiative and make the effort. Hashem believes in you, and you should believe in yourself too.
May we fight to achieve our greatness with Hashem’s help amen 🙏
Wishing you all a wonderful day ❤️
