No Existence Apart from the Creator
Rav Shlomo's daily hanhaga: to hold in mind that you have no existence except what comes to you from Hashem.
Among the practices that chassidim recorded of Rav Shlomo is a thought he would hold at the start of the day. A person should remember that he has no existence of his own, only the existence that comes to him from the Creator at every moment. It is easy to speak of this as a principle and hard to live it. The Karliner turns it into a simple discipline: before anything else, stand for a moment inside the truth that your life, your strength and your next breath are given. Prayer then no longer feels like a request from one separate being to another. It becomes the natural movement of something that is held by its Source. This is why the Karlin way of davening could be so fervent. A heart that knows it is sustained every instant has nothing to hold back, and it opens without effort.

Tomorrow morning, before you pick up your phone or speak to anyone, pause for the length of a few breaths. Say quietly, in your own words, that everything you have this morning comes from Hashem: your life, your home, the people near you, the day ahead. You do not need to feel anything special. Just let the sentence be true for a moment. Then begin your day, and notice whether your first prayer or first word to others carries a little less hurry. Repeat it for a week and see what changes.
