      As written in the source

      A segulah (spiritual remedy) for diligence in study is to be careful not to speak against any Jew at all. On the contrary, he should strive with all his strength to find merit and good in every single Jew. And even if one seems, God forbid, to be a wicked person, he should strive to find in him good points, where he is not wicked (as is brought on the verse "And yet a little while, and the wicked is no more" in Torah 282, see there), until every single Jew is beautiful and pleasing in his eyes. Through this he will merit to be diligent in the study of the holy Torah (Sichot HaRan 91).
