I have worked very very hard on these small areas of bein adom lchavero. I only mention them because they are so small that we don’t even realize the mitzvah in them. I get my energy to do it by keeping in mind the idea that I can be mikayemes mitzvah in little ways throughout my day.

1) I read a story about a rav who would pick up garbage from the hallway floors to make the custodians job easier. I’ve taken it upon myself as well.

2) emptying containers of liquids before throwing them away so the garbage isn’t any heavier than it needs to be.

3) making sure to tell my kids I love them even when I’m really not in the mood to say so.

4) being dan l’kaf zchus in situations where it is to my detriment.

5) saying yes when my kid asks for a ride without making him feel like a burden.
