Firstly, I just watched that mashal with poker chips and I love it!!! Its so brilliantly put together and so true. Being that apparently outside influences such as the other boys caused you to lose alot of poker chips youre trying to get them for yourself. Thats a lot harder than them being given to you. So I give you lots of credit for that. No matter how hard it may get, dont give up! You can certainly do it, I have absolutely no doubt. As for goals, pick something thats hard for you to do or something that you want to achieve. Look at the big picture first. Then break that into smaller goals. For example, lets say someone wants to work on having a more positive attitude. But that’s not something one can do from one day to the next. So first theyll work on appreciation. Theyll make sure to thank 5 people during the day for something. It can even be like holding a door open for them. They work on that for a week. Then they can work on smiling at someone they really cant stand and within a week theyll feel a little less like killing that person! Theyll feel like maybe that person isnt so bad after all. And so on… thanks for your bracha! Im so happy I could be there for you… and maybe one day I will write a book! Who knows!
