From Battlefield to Bible: A Commander’s Lessons on Character (feat. Binny Freedman)

Описание: In a world of constant stress and uncertainty, how do we build a life of purpose and emotional stability? Discover how a former combat commander uses ancient wisdom to build modern resilience and unbreakable character.

Rabbi Binny Freedman is the Rosh Yeshiva of Orayta in Jerusalem and a former Company Commander in the IDF. Having survived the 2001 Sbarro bombing, Rabbi Binny’s teachings on gratitude and leadership aren't just theoretical—they are battle-tested insights from a man who has navigated the extremes of human experience. We often view "ethics" as a set of rules, but the Jewish concept of Middot (character traits) is actually a technology for habit-forming. Using the "Maimonides Method," Rabbi Binny explains how to build a "healthy soul" through intentional repetition—turning positive actions into second nature so you can remain balanced even in high-pressure environments.

Key Takeaways:

-The Power of Proactive Giving: Why shifting from a "rights-based" to an "obligations-based" mindset is the ultimate antidote to modern anxiety.
-The Science of Habit: How to use intentional repetition to overwrite negative behaviors and build lasting inner strength.
-Willpower as a Muscle: Why setting personal boundaries and ethical "restrictions" actuallay creates the freedom to succeed in professional and personal life.
