Unlocking Greatness with Charlie Harary

 Resilience vs. Fear Part 2

Why do some people rise up during a challenge and some shut down, break down?

In part one, we discussed the different ways we react to challenges. 

Today, Charlie begins to explain how we can tap into the higher ways of reacting like giving, resilience, sacrifice, courage, by beginning to understand how challenge affects us physically.

What it does to our body.

How our brain reacts.

How survival mode affects us without us even thinking about it. 

And how we can get stuck in survival mode for a lifetime if we don’t do something about it.

Before we can rise up, we have to understand what brings us down and how.

This episode will clarify why so many react in fear, despair and brokenness.

See you next time to start building resilience!

In today’s episode, Charlie addressed the different reactions people have to the difficult times we are in.

We see:

Giving 

Volunteering 

Unity 

Courage 

Resilience 

Sacrifice 

Bravery

For others we see:

Fear 

Despair 

Brokenness 

Obsession with news 

And still for others, the response is:

Hate

Destruction 

Death

How do we get on the good side and react in a way that demonstrates strength and goodness? Where challenge builds us?

We have to have a very important conversation about higher self living, and lower self living.

What is lower self living?

Why do some people get stuck there?

How does it start?

Tune in to understand this extremely important concept, where we’re too focused on the self to rise above, before we pick up the higher self in the next episode.

With everything going on in the world, we find ourselves asking “why are we alive? What is our purpose?”

There is a common and beautiful question we can ask ourselves to help us discover our purpose:

How do I use what I have (resources, knowledge, challenges) to help other people?

But most people are so busy looking for a huge cosmic, macro “life project,” when most probably your purpose is right in front of you. 

So today, look at your life and ask yourself, where are you needed? Who in your life really needs you? Your child? Your spouse? Is there a mitzvah in front of you? A person?

Don’t look for a big important job. Look at what’s in front of you today, and how you can take care of that with the most energy, enthusiasm, and holiness!

That’s how you find your purpose!

Rosh Hashanah, the Day of Judgment, is arguably the most significant day of the Jewish calendar. It's a day when your entire year, your destiny, hangs in the balance, and the heavenly court assesses your deeds. The seriousness of this day is akin to preparing for a major trial, especially for those familiar with courtroom procedures.

In this episode, we explore the intriguing customs associated with Rosh Hashanah, particularly the tradition of consuming symbolic foods before the formal prayers begin. It may seem peculiar at first, similar to wordplay or a game, but there's a deeper meaning to this practice.

Charlie shares a beautiful insight that reframes our understanding of these symbolic foods, known as 'simonim.' These foods are not mere word games or puns; they are triggers for blessings and prayers. They represent a proactive approach to co-creating one's future. Instead of passively waiting for divine judgment, Rosh Hashanah encourages us to take an active role in shaping our destinies.

As the episode unfolds, we discover that these simonim serve as reminders of our ability to transform life's experiences into blessings. By connecting everyday items like dates, pomegranates, honey, and other foods to specific prayers and intentions, we elevate our perspective on life. We learn to respond positively to challenges, hoping for the best, and praying for the best outcomes.

This practice reflects the idea that part of our judgment is based on how we react to the gifts and challenges that life presents. By using these symbolic foods as tools for introspection and blessings, we signify our commitment to making the most of what we have been given.

Join us in this enlightening episode as we explore the profound concept of simonim on Rosh Hashanah, reminding us to actively participate in shaping our future, not just through prayer, but through the transformation of everyday experiences into blessings and positivity.
