Yisro: Having Too Much on Your Plate - Rabbi Eitiel Goldwicht

you ever find yourself with just too much on your plate that you've accepted upon yourself too much to do at home and at work and you're on the verge of burning out how do we strike that perfect balance in our life that we don't reach that stage of burning we learn in this week's Torah portion from ISRO who sees that Moshe Rabin wants to personally take care of every single Jew and to answer their issues and there's no better person to do that than Moshe but he also sees that outside of his tent there's a long line of people waiting all day so that they could get that moment with Moshe and he goes up to motion he tells him you're on the verge of burning out and so are the people who need to wait all day to get a moment with you you can't continue this way you have to appoint a system of judges to help you see a lot of times as parents as workers we might feel that nobody could take care of our kids the way we do no one can run my business the way I do but sometimes it's important to empower other people to help us raise the kids to help us run the business even though they can't do it the best way the way we could do it but step away for two days like I was blessed to step away here in Tel Aviv with my wife let go of the kids let go of the business it's gonna be okay you'll find yourself more refreshed more rejuvenated With A New Perspective in order to strike that balance in your life you have to take time for yourself let go Empower other people be a better person then you won't reach that stage of burning out shabbat shalom from Tel Aviv [Music]
