"You shall be holy," teaches the Bible. The masters of the Jewish Mussar tradition have crafted a roadmap to help people approach that lofty goal. Mussar is a system of introspective practices that can help you identify and break through the obstacles to your inherent holiness, using methods that are easy to integrate into daily life.
Every Day, Holy Day is an essential companion for anyone who wants to experience the life-changing gifts of Mussar. The program laid out in this book focuses on 26 traits (middot)—such as loving-kindness, strength, generosity, compassion, honor, and equanimity—each of which takes center stage for a week of contemplation and exercises, in order to develop and refine that quality in yourself.
Alan Morinis invites you to follow the Mussar path with him for a year. It is remarkably simple, and also remarkably effective in helping you overcome negative tendencies and strengthen positive ones—and to reveal your innate holiness in the process.

Every Day, Holy Day: 365 Days of Teachings and Practices from the Jewish Tradition of Mussar
I've set aside a year in large part to focus on Mussar study. Part of this involves dabbling in studies of the writings of several masters. Morinis (completely a master of modern times in this subject) caught my attention with his other book 'Everyday Holiness.' This one is somewhat of a pocket edition/journal edition of that one, but alas not as good. Pros: Morinis opens each section with his own introductions, and shares from a wide variety of sources. He keeps up the same theme for a week, and re-introduces the theme after a full cycle of themes has been through. Each time a theme comes back, the focus builds appropriately on what has gone before it. Cons: A few of the excerpts repeat, and the meditations and with a few exceptions most of the writings were too simplistic to hold my attention. Also, were I a journaling sort, the amount of space given for writing isn't enough unless folks are planning to pour out their hearts in about two lines. Overall, pros win, though. Use another notebook to journal in. This book should still be on your list if you're beginning Mussar.
