Update Your Understanding
The Sages (Talmud, Yoma 29a) tell us that it is more difficult to understand an idea we already know that one that is new to us. This is because we feel we already understand it and do not concentrate on it as much as we should. Also, we tend to rely on the level of understanding we had when we were younger and less mature.
Today, think about a concept that would enhance your life greatly if internalized and integrated. Reflect on that idea with your present knowledge and life experience.
(see Rabbi Simcha Zissel Ziv - Chochmah Umussar, vol.1, p.163)
