Ep 68 | Coping With The Unknowable: Your 3 Part Curriculum

Author: Blaze Podcast Network May 9, 2020 Duration: 1:50:14
These coronavirus days can make you feel utterly out of control of your own destiny. It makes you feel just like a tennis ball floating down the gutter of life. BUT, remember! Being a happy warrior means NEVER allowing yourself to be a tennis ball floating down the gutter of life. It sounds almost too good to be true but this is how the world REALLY works. There are only 3 things you need to know in order to build a successful career and create real wealth. You’ll know how to choose friends, associates and employees. You’ll even know what to major in at college. You’ll know how to choose a spouse, win a spouse and keep a spouse. You’ll also know how to attain happiness and raise happy children. You’ll know how to run organizations like families, churches, or corporations and you’ll know how to be kind and do good, correctly, with your head and not your heart. In this show, your rabbi explains the only 3 things worth spending time on mastering and incorporating into your life blueprint. But (and there’s always a ‘but’ isn’t there?) it is always about not only what you know—it is about what you are. It is not always about just knowing but it is about doing. Why no Lapin child is a concert pianist. Are all cultures of equal value to the health and vitality of a society?  Moving forward in spite of corona uncertainty. Life lessons from the Lord’s language? Yes, count on it! Right here: https://rabbidaniellapin.com/product/buried-treasure/ Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Tune in to Rabbi Daniel Lapin for a conversation that cuts through the noise of modern life, connecting ancient wisdom to today's most pressing questions. Hosted by the insightful Rabbi Daniel Lapin and presented by the Blaze Podcast Network, this series explores the enduring principles found within religious tradition, philosophy, and a thoughtful examination of culture. Each episode feels like a necessary pause, a chance to consider the foundational ideas that shape our society, our personal choices, and our spiritual health. You'll hear discussions that range from practical guidance for family and business to deeper explorations of faith and morality, all grounded in a perspective that values timeless truth over temporary trends. The central premise of this podcast is a compelling one: in a world that seems to reinvent itself daily, our greatest security and clarity come from understanding what remains constant. Rabbi Lapin draws from a deep well of knowledge to reveal how these permanent things actively inform and influence our contemporary reality, from politics and economics to relationships and community. It’s for anyone seeking substance and stability, offering listeners not just commentary but a framework for living with purpose. The dialogue is engaging, often challenging conventional wisdom, and always aimed at providing tools for a more meaningful and principled life. This isn't about abstract theory; it's about how the world REALLY works, applying age-old insights to help navigate the complexities of the 21st century.
