🚨WARNING: A World Wide EPIDEMIC of EXTREME Low Self-Esteem

Rabbi Lawrence Hajioff shares a powerful teaching from Rabbi Dr. Abraham Twerski about what may be one of the most widespread problems affecting people today: extreme, chronic and debilitating low self esteem. Why do so many people struggle to break habits they know are hurting them? Why do people fall back into the same patterns again and again? And could the real problem be something much deeper than the behavior itself? In this conversation, Rabbi Hajioff explains what Rabbi Twerski told him after decades of working as a psychiatrist with addiction and human behavior. According to Rabbi Twerski, one theme appeared again and again throughout his books, his work and his interactions with patients: people simply do not realize how great they are. We discuss: • Why low self esteem can sit underneath destructive habits and repeated failures • What Rabbi Twerski learned from decades of working with addiction • Why people often underestimate the greatness of their own neshama • Why real change usually happens through small consistent steps • Why falling does not mean that you have failed • The voice of the yetzer hara that tells a person they will never change • Why even a tzaddik can fall seven times and still continue getting back up • The remarkable Gemara about the short long road and the long short road • Rabbi Moshe Cordovero’s teaching about the Hebrew letter hei and the path of teshuvah • Why a person who returns to Hashem can actually come back higher than where they started • The comparison between teshuvah and a broken bone that heals stronger at the place of the break • How failure itself can become part of a person’s growth Teshuvah is not about pretending that we never fell. It is about recognizing that we can get back up, return to Hashem and sometimes become stronger precisely because of what we went through. The road back may not always be quick, but every small step matters. May Hashem give all of us the strength to recognize our own greatness, overcome the voices that hold us back and continue moving closer to Him.
