Rabbi, Musar Great, WRote "Sparks of Musar: A Treasury of the words and deeds of the Musar greats"

"If you have a positive attitude towards the events of your life, even though to an outside observer your life might seem full of suffering, you nevertheless will live a happy life. What to others might seem misfortunes, you will view as opportunities for spiritual growth."

"One of the prime causes of unhappiness in the world is approval-seeking."
