Rosh Chodesh (the new moon) is a time marker for honest self-examination and goal setting. Each new cycle is a chance to look back without self-condemnation, learn from what happened, and plan specific changes going forward. Life is framed as a transformational process with a clear target: becoming like Yeshua, measured in seven interconnected areas—spiritual, financial, physical health, relationships, mental health, emotional health, and community. Rabbi Berkson insists that you can’t ignore the “other six” and claim to focus only on the spiritual, because problems in health, money, emotions, or relationships will distract from spiritual growth and spill over into each other. The practical advice is to rank these seven areas from 1 (worst) to 7 (best), then prioritize working on the area that is “bleeding” the most. That means studying why you struggle there, defining what “fixed” looks like, seeking out resources and experts, and being willing to work consistently, including retaking the “Level Up” class as a launchpad rather than a one-time fix.A key theme is mindset: become an expert in your problems, seek workarounds when limitations can’t be removed, and adopt Yeshua’s perspective of enduring current discomfort for future gain. Rabbi Berkson also emphasizes the importance of participating in community life—attending events, being friendly rather than passively waiting for others, and building genuine relationships. Ultimately, adult maturity in Messiah is defined as fully owning where you are and taking responsibility for where you go next across all seven areas of life.• Marking the movement of time• The journey of transformation • Time to “Level Up” in the seven areas of your life• Once is not enough • Become an expert on your struggles• I just want to focus on the spiritual• The seven areas of life are cross-effective • Ranking the seven areas for improvement • Thriving within / Find a workaround• There are proper levels for all emotions • Developing and growing into a community/family• The Level Up program will answer these questions Subscribe to take advantage of new content every week.To learn more about MTOI, visit our website, https://mtoi.org.https://www.facebook.com/mtoiworldwide https://www.instagram.com/mtoi_worldwidehttps://www.tiktok.com/@mtoi_worldwide You can contact MTOI by emailing us at [email protected] or calling 423-250-3020. Join us for Shabbat Services and Torah Study LIVE, streamed on our website, mtoi.org, YouTube, and Rumble every Saturday at 1:15 p.m. and every Friday for Torah Study Live Stream at 7:30 p.m. Eastern time.
