The word "Beinoni" has a strong message. The "book of Beinonim" is another name for the Tanya. A Beinoni of Tanya is a perfect person, with perfect self-control. Viewing yourself as one who has the potential of Beinoni raises you to a higher standard.

The strategy in the efforts of the Tanya to empower us as workers, working to become that Beinoni. It's about the process.

Everyone has their own individual Torah source. What inspires you may not inspire another person the same. It depends on your soul orientation.

The first words of the cover page of the Tanya, "Sefer Likkutei Amarim" literally translating, a compilation of sayings, is a great expression of humility. This was the life's work of the Alter Rebbe, and yet he considers it a mere compilation. Within humility, you can find answers to all of your questions. Access that point of humility and many doors of growth will open up to you.

Why does our work have to be so hard? G-d wants our G-dly nature to become permeated into every part of our existence. Access the G-dly in your situation. Listen to the messages.

Think of all of your abilities. G-d is the Source of everything. This will help you nullify yourself before Hashem. Become aware of Hashem's presence in my life and in all of the details.

G-d wants you to go beyond yourself. Life will necessitate that.

The very first fundamental idea of Tanya: Complete dedication to G-d is attainable. You can reach your potential if you believe in it.

The entire Tanya is based on the verse "The matter is very close to you, in the mind and heart and action. The is our mandate, to serve G-d with our thoughts, speech and action. We strive for the perfection Tanya described.

Believing in your potential as a Beinoni, having perfect self-discipline and self-control, realizing that you are a piece of G-d, and that is our truth is empowering. The more you believe it, the more you can live it. 1.Tell yourself "I am a piece of limitless G-d". Don't measure your worth against your action, rather in terms of your effort. 2. Look at others the same way. You will become kinder and more accepting of others. 4. Pick an area in your life to help your actions reflect your true essence.
