Taking Responsibility for Your Life (Mishlei 19:3)

Everyone has a basic personality type, some people are Simchat Torah people, some people have a Yom Kippur personality. However, Judaism wants us to go beyond our comfort zone and learn to incorporate the other personality traits. The Jewish calendar incorporates all of these into the first three weeks of the year.

Cheshvan, a month bereft of holidays, is the most important month of the year because it represents real life. How do we take the inspiration from Tishrei and incorporate its messages into everyday life?
