In the previous Episode we focused on applying Bitachon when engaging in professional relationships. Learning how to ask for assistance, without losing dignity, and appreciating the difference between making requests vs relying on people.
We concluded with the idea that thanking G-d for success, doesn’t preclude expressing thanks to people. The question is, why? After all, if we believe that G-d is the sole true source of all sustenance, what exactly does our benefactor deserve thanks for?!
Rabbeinu Bachaya will show us how the answer can be found in the adage 'The Art of Good Business is Being a Good Middle Man!"
In this Episode we will come to understand the deeper meaning of being G-d’s Emissary, as we are introduced to the Torah truism "Goodness comes through the Good."
We will discover what we must be appreciative for, as well as tap into a Bitachon secret to getting what you want: coming to the realization that it has nothing to do with the person you expected to do it for you!
This Episode comprises the Twenty-Eighth segment of the Fourth Chapter of "The Gate of Trust," and is the 102nd consecutive video of the series.
