START HERE: https://mussar.center If you think 'working on yourself' sounds kind of vague…you're right. Mussar is way more specific than that. Much of "tikkun" is focused on individual character qualities, or "middot" in Hebrew. While literally middot are just quantitative measures, figuratively they range from your soul traits and values to Hashem's ways and highest attributes. Let's start by learning what "middah" meant in the Tanach and Rabbinic writings and discover how it's used in Israel today. Then we'll see how your character is tied to your habits, face the shocking truth that without these inner qualities everything you could do for God is garbage, and debate whether or not it's middos that make for a good day and a great you.
