This shiur explores how encouragement, pressure, and even rebuke can motivate people to perform mitzvos. Drawing from stories in the parsha and Chazal, it discusses the value of mitzvos done under pressure and the enduring potential for spiritual growth in every Jew. Based on Likkutei Sichos Vol. 10.
