THE ACTUAL KEY TO SUCCESS (AND HAPPINESS)

[Music] welcome to the late welcome to the Late Show welcome to the Late Show why is my 8 the ASA hates his brother Jacob and not because he took his snacks at school actually it's kind of similar Jacob took the blessings that Isaac had originally intended to give ace of and now a subs naturally red complexion is a lot redder as he burns with anger and plans to kill his brother that's how it's not similar to fight in school over snacks unless you know someone who would murder whoever takes his snacks at the advice of his mother Jacob makes a run for his life to his uncle lovin who lived in a place called Horan where Jacob hoped to meet one of his cousins and marry her on his journey Jacob stops over at a very holy place actually the site of the future temple the base HaMikdash a bedtime ik - the holy temple Jacob goes to sleep over there and actually that was his first time going to sleep in 14 years being that he spent the last 14 years of his life in yeshiva studying terror a day and night and never going to sleep just taking naps one necessary well before going to sleep jacob placed stones around his head to protect himself from wild animals question granted you may die if your head is eaten but if you get eaten from the bottom up you survive well Jacob wasn't fully protecting himself because he trusted in God but if he trusted in God why was he protecting his head ah well for this let's explain exactly where he was headed pun intended the name Horan hints to the fact that it was her own michelle malkin that basically means that it was a place that caused god a lot of anger this was a very unholy environment to say the least pick up was on his way out of the Shiva and on his way into the what people call the real world no offense if that's what you call it I just personally believe that the real world is not all that fake garbage out there but the point is that's where he was headed being headed there he wanted to protect his head the abode of his soul his mind that his intellect to be directed towards God and God only as if he was still in yeshiva surrounding it with stone saying this part isn't going into that part might be too big here I don't think well I hope not if ideas like this God does not want us to just lock ourselves in a room and learn Torah all day just to engage in divine service with prayer and Torah study that got his angels first he didn't put us as souls in bodies down here to just serve Him through divine services so God wants this weird dynamic he wants us in the world dealing with the world but stay holy offer well how do we make sure that we won't succumb to the world's ideas and mishegoss there's a first set loosely translated says when you work with your hands you will eat you will be happy and it will be good for you and we follow Jacob's example go into the world and work with our hands keep our head involved in Torah keep our head involved in godliness then we can be a short of spiritual success that itself brings material benefit and tremendous material success the key to success physically is by hard work but not only physically so sign up to a Torah class today do another mitzvah work on your character and may we see the ultimate blend of spiritual and material benefit with the revelation of Messiah now demand his revelation from God shabbat shalom
