Be the Nachshon, Not the Gershon

There's once a rav, he got up, he says, "Rebbi Siyyah, you got to be the first one to jump into things." We see from Gershon ben Aminadav when he jumped into the water, it's mamash, he he what? Nachshon ben Amminadav. Gershon ben Aminadav, he jumped in. He jumped into the water. The way you see the story is that everybody starts screaming, Nachshon, Nachshon. Yeah, it's part of it. You should try. You you help me out. So, Gershon goes into into the into the water. He goes deep. All of a sudden, he sees his brother there. Nachshon, what are you doing here? Oh, he was making a whole cheshbon shiyur. Jump, Nachshon. It's dangerous, Nachshon. He got in and he was he was second. Nobody will ever know about Gershon ben Aminadav. They'll only know about Nachshon. The point is that a lot of times people make these cheshbonos. Should I do it? Should I not do it? Just do it. If it's the right thing to do, be the Nachshon, not the Gershon. But, if you have that feeling, oh, should I do it? Jump in and do it. What are you going to lose? You might learn a daf, two daf in your life. It takes koach. People that jumped in and did it, they they have tremendous uh hanah, siyata d'Shmaya. You jump in, you do it.
