Shavuatov Bitachon of the day ❤️
Every day, you get to choose who you are, what you believe in, and how you are going to live your life. Each morning, you get to create your identity. You are never stuck in the patterns of your past; each day you begin anew.
Our lives are filled with endless struggles; there is always something that goes wrong. However, it all depends on how you handle the situation. It's about deciding how to envision the next step. If you choose to believe it will be okay, you redefine your entire day, and the obstacles you thought you couldn't overcome will be resolved.
Your attitude defines your entire day. Twelfth grade can be incredibly stressful, your surroundings, the pressure of the whole grade on the edge. Last year, my daughter taught us all a valuable lesson.
While everyone around her was utterly devastated each time they opened their college email to check the acceptance letter, my daughter remained remarkably calm. Her profound belief that Hashem was handling it led her to experience the process in a unique way compared to her peers.
Even when she didn't get into her dream school, she said, "Hashem has bigger plans." While I was a bit upset for her, in the end, she was absolutely right, Hashem had chosen the best place for her.
Her attitude has greatly aided my other daughter this year as she goes through the same process. She is remarkably at ease, knowing that Hashem is in charge. Wherever she ends up, it's because Hashem has chosen her path.
They both tackled their own challenges and obstacles in high school, gave it their all to reach where they are now, did their part, but it's the attitude they choose that truly sets the whole process apart.
You're in charge of how you handle your day—no one else.
No matter what you've been through, your issues, your problems, I genuinely believe you choose how to deal with it. You can be totally depressed, sad, and angry, or you can say to yourself, "I got this and will show everyone what I have."
Choose how to live your day, leave the past behind, wake up like it's a brand new day, and believe that Hashem is there to help you. Don't dwell on your issues. Challenge yourself daily, constantly pushing to become the very best you can be. Recreate yourself for the better, taking the next step in your spiritual growth.
May we choose to live each day like a new one, drawing closer to Hashem, and becoming the best version of ourselves.
Wish you a wonderful day ❤️
