Like a Diet, One Day at a Time

You're going on a diet. You say, "I'm not going to eat carbs." Everybody in their own thing. He's not going to eat fat. He's not going to eat carbs. He's not going to this. He's going to starve himself. You could look at it and say, like, "Wow, this is painful. I can't wait until I can eat. When's my cheat meal coming up?" That is a failure. That if you have that mindset, that now I'm I'm hurting myself because I I need to gain, you can't you can't do a diet like that, you have to look at it as right now I won. I had a win. Today I didn't touch this uh this donut that's coming out. I won. Now I can fit into my chasan's suit, whatever it is, yeah? You have to take it as a win, a daily win. That's the only way to do it. And then we have the same thing by Torah. If I think to myself, "Wow, I got to go 2,711 days. That's a long time. How am I going to I'm going to join now middle of No. Every day is a gain. Every day is a win. Every daf, it's a beauty. Look what we learned today. Win number one. Tomorrow's win number two. Yeah, the long-term goal afterwards, together. We have a we finish a mesechta. Boom, a big win. Finish Shas. Unbelievable. But every day is a is a win. That's how you have to look at it.
