They called it zerizus.<br \/>\nZerizus is the quality within us that fuels achievement, the trait that takes what we are capable of and turns it into real accomplishment. Zerizus is, in the words of author Rabbi Zelig Pliskin, the joyful willpower that we all need to make our dreams come true.<br \/>\nZerizus takes us from I wish to I will.<br \/>\nZerizus is not about hurry. It\u2019s not about pushing, aggression or aimless, rushed activity. As we cultivate zerizus we learn to create meaningful, doable goals and actually reach them. As zerizus becomes a part of our lives, we find joy and serenity in our lives, as well as practical accomplishment.<br \/>\nLike Rabbi Pliskin\u2019s other many bestselling books, Taking Action: The Art of Joyful Zerizus is full of wise insights, practical advice, true-life stories, and his trademark good humor. Tens of thousands of people have had their lives enriched by Rabbi Pliskin\u2019s books; now, he takes us to an even higher level of happiness and self-satisfaction as he shows us how to harness the power of zerizus to live our dreams.\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thousands of years before the term proactive was coined by motivational experts, the Jewish Sages gave this indispensable tool for success a name.
