Summary

Much of what you say flows subconsciously from your morality matrix. Many of your decisions are made based on your morality matrix. If you don’t have one, you are making a whole bunch of damaging mistakes in your life. With a proper functioning morality matrix you make far fewer mistakes and life is more joyful. With no morality matrix, or worse, a broken one, you are making decisions in finance, romance, and socially that will come back and bite you—if they haven’t already done so. Morality is not like a toddler learning to walk. Gaining one is not automatic. A functioning morality matrix is like calculus, cooking or car repair. Unless you make the effort to acquire them, you won’t have them. There are more than one morality matrix available. Did you ever deliberately and purposefully choose yours? Do you and your spouse share a morality matrix? If not, God help you! Your morality matrix is not confined to your faith. How well you are doing with Family, Finances, and Friendships has much to do with the existence and condition of your morality matrix.

0:11.6	This is Rabbi Daniel Appen on demand on the Blaze Radio Network.
0:18.0	Greetings, happy warriors.
0:21.0	And one of the challenges of being a happy warrior is to be able to hold in mind conflicting ideas and even conflicting emotions and yet still be able to function.
0:37.1	That was something that the author of the great Gatsby, F. Scott Fitzgerald, once wrote,
0:45.6	and he linked it to the idea of being a big human being.
0:50.7	To be being a big person was the ability to have in mind two conflicting ideas,
0:56.8	or I would add too conflicting emotions and still be able to function.
1:01.6	It's not easy and a happy warrior has to be able to do it.
