[Avodah] rif yomi

I'm not getting enough sleep. A second bit that I meant to have in the
first post but also need to add now. At 10:11am EDT, the third item on
my list was:
:     - Some kind of hashkafah yomi, but not midin talmud Torah, but to
:       fulfil ahavas veyir'as Hashem. There really aren't any texts
:       exclusively dedicated to the topic until the rishonim.

Notably, the two most influential sifrei machashavah amongst the rishonim
(IMHO) are very different from each other -- HaKuzari and Moreh Nevuchim.

Ideally hashkafah needs to be a personal choice. But if we were to
craft a yomi curriculum for people who wouldn't know where to begin,
but still wouldn't conform enough for daf or just can't do daf, the
contrast between those two sefarim would provide at least some sense of
the breadth of Jewish Thought.

Tir'u baTov!
