In this series, Mrs. Shimona Tzukernik explores the topic of education - both self-education and the education of our children - in light of the 12 essential Torah verses that the Lubavitcher Rebbe chose as fundamental in the instruction of a child.
This segment's verse:
9. Yogatee Velo Motzosee Al Ta'amin. Lo Yogatee U'motzosee Al Ta'amin. Yogatee U'motzosee Ta'amin
If someone says, "I have worked hard, and I have not been successful," don't believe him. If someone says, "I have not worked hard and I have been successful," don't believe him. If someone says, "I have worked hard, and I have been successful," believe him!!! (Megilla, 6b)
