I'm in to participate for 2 pages a day (rather no page for shabbos, as I only have the book in digital version).

Could it be 5 days a week and the 6th to catch up, I don't find shabbos an ideal time to engage in this, by me shabbos is usually a yom menucha and many times the only day of the week that I can forget about my struggle and still not be at risk.

How about all participant commiting to post at least once a week in order to not fall behind?

I'm happy to do it like that too - I guess it will be up to our Captain to steer our ship with an executive decision!!

Ok so 2 pages a day, Sunday-Thursday, with the weekend to catch up if anyone falls behind.

The book can be downloaded at the link below in my signature.

I will try to post a schedule for each week on motzai shabbos. (I might also post during the week about that day's lesson, but not necessarily every day.)

We are really looking for people to comment and keep this thread lively, so it would be great for each person to commit to himself to post at least once a week, whether an inspiring quote from the book, or an inspiring idea, or to discuss something in the book.

I'm also asking that the first person who posts about that day's lesson just put the day's pages as the top of his post, so everyone knows where we are up to.

When should we start? Tomorrow?

I‘m in. The only question is that im a fourth of the way in for my first time around. Should i keep going while i do this cycle and read from two different parts? Or start over? Or wait for the next cycle? I want to read along with everyone else so we can all discuss it

I think try to do both, unless it ends up being too hard.

Should we start tomorrow or sunday? What does everyone want?

Hi Captain,
are you using the page numbers of the book or PDF page numbers? The link in your signature seems to be off on the pages. Introduction is 9-11. Also you are missing 16-18.
Thank you

These are the page numbers in the physical book. I remember something like this happening last time. I think it was only the introduction that was on different pages. If someone can please check the pdf and let me know, and we'll figure it all out.
Also, in the book, there is no text on pages 16-18 which is why they are skipped.

My hardcopy just arrived today!
I checked chapter start pages through chapter six and it seems that the PDF page number is consistently 4 lower than the hardcopy.
So Chapter 2 starts on Page 25 in the hardcopy but Page 21 in the PDF. Chapter 3 starts on page 33 in the hardcopy and page 29 in the pdf. And so forth.
I also emailed the email address in the book to ask if he has a pdf with matching numbers for simplicity's sake.

Today's Read: Hardcopy: 13-15, PDF: 9-11

"I want you to live with excitement. Our goal is to crush the Yetzer Hara."
This is so powerful for me - the only thing that I feel will carry me through the constant battle with a seemingly indefatigable enemy is that desire to win and the excitement of every victory!
It takes constant focus for me to have this perspective and that's one of the things I love about reading this book every day as a group - Thank you Captain for making this happen and thank you everyone for joining!

Wednesday: Hardcopy 21 - 22, PDF 17-18.

I'm headed to a wedding tonight and I'm sure that there is going to be some tough times there, so I'm holding on to this thought from the book to give me the strength and the will to succeed!
"...We can do what has never been done before in history. These are challenges and opportunities that Hashem has trusted only our generation with."
So we are going in for a LEGENDARY battle, Rabboisai! The yetzer hara is going to regret starting up with us!
