This is a great idea! We have to think up a name for this type of activity. Hmm...OH I know! Let's call it a va'ad!!! </p> http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/pushkas-and-popcorn#post-198452 Wed, 26 Jan 2011 20:51:18 +0000 eclipse 198452@http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/ <p>Whether you put money in the pushka each time you get angry,or a popcorn kernel in a jar each time you are patient,try doing it with a friend....A small group learning a sefer with an interesting speaker or 2 friends checking in with each other at a specified time daily is a great and EFFECTIVE way to keep our anger/other weak area in check.<br /> At first it seems like it's all abstract,but after a few weeks,you start noticing the difference.Really!<br /> I am not preaching from a pedestal;if I was perfect,I wouldn't be doing it myself!<br /> Just want to share that it's fun and it works,and personally I'd rather be meeting again in Gan Eden after 120,not the hot place,c"v. </p>
