Life Is Short - Stop Wasting It On Your Phone

This Torah class is brought to [music] you by torahanytime.com. A Torah anytime original series. Pesach [music] is the holiday of freedom. Let's talk about your free life. If you're 30 years old, realistically you've got about 50 years left to live. So, it sounds like a lot, right? But, let's break it down. There's 7 hours a day sleeping. There's 8 hours working. There's 2 hours commuting. There's 1 hour eating and showering or in the bathroom. [music] There's another hour for chores and shopping. That leaves just 5 hours a day of real free time. [music] Do the math. That's roughly 91,000 hours or 3,800 days or about 12 years of actual free time left [music] in your life, if you're lucky. That's not a lot of time. Now, here's the pretty disturbing part. The average person spends around 4 hours a day on their phone. 4 hours. Which means out of your 5 hours of free life [music] each day, four of them are gone to a screen doing nothing. [music] So, your free life is actually closer to 1 hour a day. 1 hour to grow, 1 hour to build relationships, 1 hour of tire of meaning, of purpose, of hesed, of becoming the person you're supposed to become. Pesach is the holiday of the Jewish year celebrating freedom. Which means it's a pretty good time to ask yourself [music] a simple question. In your life, are you actually free? Do you carve [music] out time in your day where you're actually free? Free to think and grow, free [music] to learn, free to connect with your family, free to connect with Hashem, free to connect [music] with your own neshama? Freedom isn't just some cute story about our ancestors leaving Egypt thousands of years [music] ago. Freedom is what you do with the time Hashem gives you. Pesach comes every year with the same message. Life is short. The nonsense is endless. And freedom belongs to the people who decide their time actually matters. So, this year ditch the distractions and set yourself free. You've just experienced another Torah class brought to you by torahanytime.com.
