The Shmuz

It’s easy to focus on the negativity and to overlook the good. We know that we have so many blessings in our lives, but we don’t feel it and it doesn’t make us happy. In this shiur, Rabbi Shafier explains to us how appreciation is a skill-a skill that must be learnt like any other. An essential class that will teach you how to appreciate in an authentic way-and feel happier as a result.  

There’s no protectezia in the world to come. No short cuts, no excuses. There is only one criteria for judgement: how much of YOU did you become?

Give Elsie the cow a field and some grass, and she’s happy. Completely content. But Man doesn’t work that way. No matter what a man has, he is always aspiring for more- looking for a better deal, a bigger house, a more fulfilling career. It seems that man is never satisfied. In this shiur, Rabbi Shafier discusses why it is that Hashem made us crave more, and how we can use this desire to achieve real fulfilment. 

Everyone does it. But that doesn’t make it ok.

Parshas Vayigash- An Honest Man is Hard to Find

In this parsha we learn of Yosef’s impeccable honesty as he personally oversaw each and every sale during the years of famine. Although his behavior went above and beyond, as Torah Jews we can certainly use Yosef’s yashrus as an inspiration for our own business dealings. In this shmuz, Rabbi Shafier discusses some common pitfalls that can occur when in the workplace or handling money, and has a sobering message for those that think they could never be guilty of gezel.
