as when a hungry man dreams he is eating, then awakens still hungry; as when a thirsty man dreams he is drinking, then awakens faint and parched. So will it be for all the many nations who go to battle against Mount Zion.

The “Ten Commandments of Making Money” is a series of articles are based on Ancient Jewish teachings that every Jewish household is very familiar with. Specifically, these ten commandments are from one of the most mind blowing books I've ever read, “Thou Shall Prosper: Ten Commandments For Making Money”by Rabbi Daniel Lapin. We’re also told to be honest and ethical in our business practices. If we see ourselves as moral people, then we’re less likely to enter into illegal or unethical territory.

Thou Shall Prosper: Ten Commandments for Making Money, 2nd

This is not just a great attitude towards life, but also a huge advantage in business: a solid company always has a great, consistent culture, but isn’t afraid to change direction fast and often, if necessary to succeed. Take Disney, for example. They’ve always been committed to family and child entertainment, but over the years, have tried and expanded into lots of other areas and age groups. Therefore shall ye lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul, and bind them for a sign upon your hand, that they may be as frontlets between your eyes…no weapon that is fashioned against you shall prosper, and you shall confute every tongue that rises against you in judgment. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD and their vindication from me, says the LORD." The most significant point I discovered from reading this book, is one of the main points in the Never Retire chapter. The author explain there that runners keep on running the fastest they can until they actually pass the finish line, and only then they start slowing down. This is one of the author’s explanations why if one holds in mind a retiring date, he’ll start slowing down several years before that date. I was always wondering why I reach my goals only up to about 70-80% of them, but almost never 100% of them. When I’ve read the aforementioned explanation it blew my mind. This was actually my problem.. I was so close to my goal that I started slowing down; this was the common denominator of all my almost-reached goals during the last several years. Now I know what I have to do: Run full force until the finish line is crossed, then think about slowing down. Common sense and simple, but widely ignored.

No weapon that is formed against you will succeed; And you will condemn every tongue that accuses you in judgment. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, And their vindication is from Me,” declares the LORD. A business venture can also improve people’s feelings. For example, a clinical trial where patients are given placebos often leads to better results because the patient feels like they’re doing something good for themselves. The same thing happens when someone is part of a noble pursuit; they feel better about themselves and their lives. No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper: and every tongue that resisteth thee in judgment, thou shalt condemn. This is the inheritance of the servants of the Lord, and their justice with me, saith the Lord. Thou Shall Prosper is one rabbi’s explanation of the “Ten Commandments” of making and enjoying money in an ethical way. If you want to understand why many Jews throughout history have been so successful in creating and keeping wealth, this is your answer. Rabbi Lapin's book looks at money in a way I never have before. Echoing in my head are verses like, "It's harder for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God" or "The love of money is the root of all sorts of evil."

Lapin challenges ten ideas that many people seem to hold. Such as money is bad. Money itself is not bad, it's what we do with it. I know this is something I heard many times as I was growing up. I heard the Scripture of I Timothy 1:6 MISquoted to say "Money is the root of all evil", but if you read it in context it says "The LOVE of money is the root of all evil." That's a huge difference. Rabbi Lapin explains why money is neither moral nor immoral -- it just *is*. This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success. Never stop reciting these teachings. You must think about them night and day so that you will faithfully do everything written in them. Only then will you prosper and succeed. It is that the vast catalogue of ancient Jewish wisdom embedded in the Hebrew scriptures, that have been part and parcel of Jewish culture. Whether it’s a man, dedicated sages who study the word diligently, or whether it’s among secularized Jews whose conversation around the dinnertable revolves around the way they raise their families and inculcate their children. All reflect these intrinsic values and so, in a nutshell, that’s what it was. And I worked as hard as I worked in my life to condense all of that into ten fundamental principles.” Business is Not Piracy
