QUESTION:
I’m so confused when I start wondering how I should do teshuvah, especially during Aseres Ymei Teshuvah. How do we begin to do teshuvah? What should we focus on? How can we do it all during Asres Ymei Teshuvah??
ANSWER:
Everything has a root and branches to it, and there are many braches. But the root is always one. Clarify deeply what the one underlying root of all your problems are, and then fix the problem at its root. When you fix the root, you are a lot closer to fixing the branches of your failings. This is the fundamental way of tikkun during these days. Also, make sure to quickly stop doing anything that goes against halachah.
