Just do it.
ok good luck
Popa
Luck is a non Jewish concept. I will wish you Hatzlacha I hope that what you do this week brings Hashem Nachas.
why?
besides being a Hebrew word, how is “hatzlacha” different from “”good luck”?
GUYS I CAN USE THAT TODAY PLEASE! WISH ME LOTS OF LUCK, HATZLOCHA AND EVERYTHING ELSE!~
???? ??? ???? ????? ??? ????
???? ??? ???? ????? ??? ?????
Hatzlacha rabbah – for what – did I miss something?
I wish you good mazel!
mazal-luck.mazalos-stars that have certain level of control/ can be used to tell future. mazel tov at wedding? sounds real to me. brachos like ‘zol zein in a gutte shoh’ means when your mazel is good so you should have succes.doesnt sound goyish to me
Send me money. Just do it.
Good Luck!!! 🙂 🙂
How is luck different than mazal?
I assume you want us to wish you good luck, GOOD LUCK!
Mazal Tov
Good luck to all of you today.
Lol ursula!
Goq you knows what happens when you assume
Hatzlacha means success, good luck means good luck.

Ok this is touching on some deep concepts. If you want to know more you can see it in the Yaaros Dvash, Derech hashem and other sfarim.
Bekitzur, the difference between luck and mazal is that luck means:
Definition of LUCK from merriam-webster
1
a : a force that brings good fortune or adversity
b : the events or circumstances that operate for or against an individual
2
: favoring chance; also : success
I heard this in a shiur from Rabbi Akiva Tatz: Mazal comes from the word Nozeil which means to flow. Hashem releases a flow to the person.
Luck is chance. Happenstance. Not a Jewish concept.
We believe everything comes to us directly from Hashem unlike the nations of the world that do not get things straight from Hashem but rather have Sarim (ministering angels) in Shomayim that represent each nation. That Sar then releases the shefa to the Mazalos to give to its nation what it is supposed to receive.
So when you wish Mazel Tov you give them a Bracha that Hashem should release from Himself a good flow to that person, family…
Luck favors the well-prepared.
Bracha v’haTZLACHA V’COL TUV!
I could also use some wishes and tefilos for hatzlacha this week.
😀 Zuberman! 😀
My friend, Hashem should lead you on His path, according to His will. I pray that you have the strength and courage to accept whatever HaKadosh Baruch Hu places before you b’leiv shalaim. That being said, may you have hatzlacha rabbah in all of your undertakings that are in accordance with the Ratzon Hashem.
Thx, coffee!
Popa decided this was the best move, prepared well, and got there. Now the fun starts! B’hatzlacha!
Ein Od Milvado. There is no “luck” just the Ratzon of Hashem.
If it makes you feel better… good luck, may the stars and planets all align for you and may positive energy flow to you.
Nah, I take it back… just daven.
please daven for me I have an interview tomorrow with chase bank
If this is a job interview, since we learned that one should not daven that a particular shidduch works out, but that the right one be found soon, we can daven that the interview goes well and that you very quickly find a gevaldikeh parnassah, a job that pays well, has a pleasant environment, and allows you to spend time with your family and your learning. (BUt you might not be allowed too many coffee breaks, you know!)
If it’s an interview for a loan or something else, well, we’ll just daven that you be successful in getting what you need.
Hatzlacha rabbah! Looking forward to hearing besuros tovos.
You should have good mazel your whole life
Coffee, Hatzlacha. Hashlech Al Hashem Yehavcha Vehu Yechalkalecha.
It’s interesting to see that many people are much more Frum than Chazal, who believed in Mazal very much. (And not just with the Nozel joke.)
What happens next week?
Anyway lots of hatzlacha to you and whoever else needs (that would be everyone).
(Will you at least tell us if our good wishes worked?)
(BUt you might not be allowed too many coffee breaks, you know!)
yeah, I know 🙁 but i still have the nights
you wanna work therE?
Yes adorable (is there a problem)
no problem. as a teller?
Yeah, ill take what I can get though
May all your hopes come to fruition bv’brocha v’hatzlocha
coffee- make sure to leave yourself a lot of time to deal with the garbage and recycle. is that still an issue?
Nah, I got a hang of it (it seems like you’re very good at recycling though, lines that is)
I got a kick out of it. its so much part of my life. i find it funny that it bothered you so much. good luck tom at the bank! You made it very easy for us to find you now you know that, right?
nope, my interview was yesterday, sorry (and good luck trying to find out the chase bank that I’m working at if I would work there, there are hundreds in Queens alone (and I don’t think you would come down from Monsey to do that
I wouldnt come and I dont care to find out who you are- I could have done that a couple times over. but i wouldnt want you to try and find me so I wont do that to you. how was the interview?
Horrible, I put my foot in my mouth and right off the bat said I can’t work on shabbos
coffee- don’t worry! in the zchus of shmiras shabbos hopefully hashem will send you another wonderful job oppurtunity
coffee addict: 🙁 hatzlacha on finding an appropriate job. as i was (and still am) told, mistakes are made so we can learn what to do the next time.
on my news, so far part one of three (well now four or five) went very well. next up, two and three tomorrow (one is an indeterminate amount of time of the day and one shouldn’t take too long at all). the other parts i am not enumerating at all sorry 🙂
😀 Zuberman! 😀
Horrible, I put my foot in my mouth and right off the bat said I can’t work on shabbos
“aint gonna work on Saturday, aint gonna…”
Hatzlacha. May the right job (in hours, location, salary, environment) comes along very soon.
Amen Kapusta,
and BTW I think big Gedalia Goomberg didn’t tell them outright first thing that, he waited until they hired him then sued for discrimination
coffee- I dont think its going to come bite you. its going to be a huge zechus for you trust me. Just think about the generation after the war when they had no jobs and no money yet the ones that refused to work on shabbos, have children that are shomer torah umitzvos but the ones that gave in to the pressures of the American society, what are their kids today?
I don’t know, what are they? (I’m guessing human)
Anyway, I’ve heard the reason the kids went off the derech was b/c they kept Shabbos and said “it’s hard to be a yid”
