Chabad.org
In this podcast episode, the speaker critically examines the common narrative of the "self-made" individual, arguing that such myths overshadow the significant contributions of community, family, circumstances, and often unacknowledged help from others in an individual's success. By drawing on Jewish teachings and ethics, the discussion emphasizes the value of humility, recognition of interdependence, and gratitude, aligning these concepts with Jewish values of community support and collective responsibility. This reflection challenges listeners to reassess individualistic perceptions of success through the lens of Jewish thought and tradition.
