last year i spoke to a whole bunch of
people
after the event
and i found one thing that i think is
important just to share
we opened the event this morning and i
quoted the svasams
and it's important for us to realize the
book ends of a business day
we at we as the jewish community to
fully appreciate
that what we have inside our books
has the wisdom for life just hasn't been
applied and which is why we hear from
sales trainers and ceos etc
and so we opened up this morning and i
hope that you heard it throughout the
event
the whole nap show i hope you heard it
from the from from waldo about
commitment and passion and you heard it
from the sales trainers this concept of
going all in on what you believe in
but there's another
one theory that i want you to maybe walk
away with
and this i hope that we end at the
conference before we get to the next
piece which is the launch pad then maybe
we can walk away all of us together
when we look around the people that have
changed in life
i take a lot of inspiration
from our ancestors if someone says to me
who do you look up to if i could have
put posters on my wall they wouldn't be
of like ceos or basketball players
they'd be like or be akiva mosher bainu
like these are the people that change
the world
but if you look around to everybody
there's one individual that i believe
is the agent of change if you look
around to our history
and you ask yourself
who's the person that we can look to to
say
you're going one way in life and you
make a left or a right turn and you
change
and that person i believe is would be a
kiva how do you have a person that at 40
years old couldn't go olive bays and by
the it gets to a point that the gemara
menachem says that when most sherbena
went up to get the torah he saw the
kurdish broker writing crowns on the
letters and they even motion says to the
neighbors what is this and he says in
the future there's going to be a guy
never be a kiva that can darshan it how
do you go from not knowing anything to
being this big
i'll tell it to you very quickly because
i hope it will change your life
the maester be akiva is the mice of ltb
remember the story of akiva he couldn't
read and write
and his followers about to disown him
and he's sitting by the brook
and his wife believed in him
and he turns to his wife and he says how
is it possible your father expects you
to be a a talmud
i don't even know allah base and he
seized by the brook the following
there's a little bit of water
that ends in a rock
and the rock had moisture
and from the rock there was a drop that
fell down and hit a stone
and ruby key listen great people by the
way they look at one thing they change
their life we need like 400 shiram to
like maybe a budge
it hits the rock
and he looks over and says the following
he says if we'll rot water which is soft
it's a rock that's hard then torah which
is fire can change a heart which is soft
and he changes his life for be kiva
he holds on to the world there was a
period of time where the whole world was
done except for ruby akiva
how what did he see
so i want to share with you three quick
lessons that i think could change your
life
he saw three things
number one
that he is able to change
we have this thing in our lives that if
i don't get get it when i'm young i'm
out and i go into business school as a
kid i'd be a big but i'm already 30 40
50 years old
if i don't know shots by my bar mitzvah
by now like isn't that
am i passing by i mean
i'm already i'm already 22.
he's 40.
and he hopped
i could change at any moment of my life
how
and the answer was he realized
that the smallest drops
make the biggest difference
you take all that water on the rock put
it into a cup pour it on the rock
nothing happens to the rock
you take all those drops and you
sprinkle around the rock nothing happens
to the rock
you take one drop every day
and you put it on the same spot of the
rock there's a hole in a rock
because the way we change
is we pick one thing that is what really
what we always want to do but we're too
scared to do
to make one phone call to be the person
that we're proud of but we're so scared
the one thing you take from this
conference if you go out of this
conference and you have 50 things to do
you're sprinkling one on the rock forget
it the sahara wants more than anything
for us to walk out be inspired and never
make a change
you pick one thing that's the hardest
thing that you can do and you tell
yourself every day i have one drop
one routine one
one drop one
drop
every day
one drop you will you will create a hole
in a rock
ltb works
when you walk out of here and go why
can't it be me
here's a hundred excuses gennick ruby
key was 40.
he held on to cloud you soul at 40. i
can't start a business i can't be a
better employee
how
one drop
and the last piece to it all
is he realizes that someone believed in
him
his wife said i believe in you
when you realize that people believe in
you
if it's your wife or your kids no matter
what
every one of us has a father in heaven
that believes in us
and if you come out of this conference
and you pick your one thing and you do
it every day and you pick the one person
that believes in you and you believe you
can
banish you will come back in a year from
now and you'll stand up and you said i
changed
i totally changed
and you'll do more and more and more and
more and more
and it is my bracha before we end that
each of us realize what we have inside
us each of us realize what's already
that we've already created
we make that change and become the
people that were meant to be
