I left my family business and I went to
go start my own company from absolutely
scratch right before Rosh Hashanah the
rabbi came to my new office to pledge me
as he does every year and when he walked
into the room his face turned white he
was used to seeing me in a big fancy
office with a big mahogany desk with a
big Corner View and that year he walked
in and I was alone in a dingy office
sitting on a ten dollar Walmart chair
and those white folding tables
that year I was expecting the rabbi to
go easy on me he sits down at the table
and he says to me this year I'm not
going to ask you for 18 000. but this
year I will ask you double
to at least six thousand
I went into a trance the rabbi froze in
front of me it was just me myself and
God
[Music]
and at first I was angry I was saying to
myself how could he do this to me he
knows that I'm starting fresh he knows
how hard it is how could he ask such a
big ask but then I thought to myself
if this is all true then God is not
going to hurt me for giving charity and
you're talking
about
need of a slave nor that Jesus glass
needless yet only Jesus
came out of the trance
one single tear ran down my cheek and I
said one word
okay
foreign
I said it's up to God it's not my
problem I'm gonna do my best and I'm
gonna commit but at the end of the day
it's up to him to make sure it happens
[Music]
soon definitely
times
that you're in business I absolutely
exploded it was an incredible Year from
Zero to Hero overnight the type of
growth that I had was not normal and by
the end of that year I was able to fill
every single dollar of that 36 000
pledge
