"How to solve economic problems"
How to get out of economic problems?
When these problems hit us, it seems as if there's no way out. Don't worry, financial problems have always existed. Thank Hashem, all the solutions are written in the Torah! So our sages give us the solution:
"The Power of Emuna"
You just have to have Emuna (Pure Faith in the Blessed Creator) and trust that the Creator will send you everything you are supposed to need!
"Business is based on faith" (Likutey Moharan 1,37:5)
In today's highly competitive world, it is a rare find to find a person who, upon returning home, still retains his faith intact. Even more extraordinary is the person who remembers Emuna (pure faith) in the midst of a busy day of business, in the heat of the moment.
The Talmud states: On Rosh Hashanah the Blessed Creator determines the exact amount a person will earn during that year.
(T. Beitza 16a)
Nothing will change this decree and this amount, neither more work nor greater dedication.
If you think you'll be more successful working longer hours, remember that it's very easy for the Creator to "grant" you a corresponding amount of profit or loss.
For the Talmud also says: "Just as profits are determined on Rosh Hashanah, so are losses decreed.
If he is worthy of it, his "losses" will be made up of his tzedaka (charity); otherwise, his losses will come directly from his income. (Baba Batra 10a)
Therefore, how much better it is to have emuna and spend one's free time in prayer and study, the results of which are guaranteed, than to toil after dubious gains.
On the other hand, let us remember that prayer can change a decree. (Rosh Hashanah 17b) If you wish to increase your income honestly, then dedicate time to prayer, reciting Psalms and speaking to the Creator during Hitbodedut. Tell Him that you need more sustenance, explain your reasons and arguments, and pray! Continuous prayer has the power to change your poverty and improve your fortune.
