overall just having zerizos and trying to do as many mitzvos as possible that i may not usually think of during elul but im really trying overall to grow on my kibod av ad aim and mot saying loshon hora:) its sometimes easiest when u think of one middah that you feel you are lacking in or that you feel is very important…..i know alot of people that are trying to work on hacaras hatov to hashem and others which is a great middah to work on!
A technical detail that few people realize: There are actually two Mitzvos involved in what we call “Kibbud Av V’eim”. Most people are very good at the Mitvah of Kibbud. The issue everyone seems to have is with the Mitzvah of Mora.
