What is self-correction in Judaism? How can we use every attribute correctly? And what would our lives be like if we enjoyed giving to others? Everyone is born with certain attributes that cannot be changed, but only the proper use for them can be found. The use of our attributes should be according to the general law of reality of “love thy friend as thyself” since we are all parts of one system. Self-correction means using each and every attribute we have for the sake of others. Self-correction is done in two phases: first “don’t do unto others what is hateful to you,” and then “love thy friend as thyself.”
