Today’s inspirational message form Hayom Yom: The Alter Rebbe’s response to a young genius, famed for his intellectual gifts, at his first yechidus in 5555 (1795) in Lyozna: Spiritual and physical are antithetical in their very essence. A superior quality in the physical is a deficiency in the spiritual. In material matters, one who is "satisfied with his lot"1 is an individual of the highest quality. A person possessing this trait will, through avoda, attain the highest levels. In spiritual matters, however, to be satisfied with one’s lot is the worst deficiency, and leads, G-d forbid, to descent and falling.
