Rabbi Lazer Broady Acheiving Your Goal

[Music] with hashem's loving grace welcome to our let's be our best series it says every month every third wednesday of the month right here at hazak sponsored by our wonderful friends and hazakitur anytime and the fantastic headset organization chickens for shabbos well the midriff says that a guest should always begin with the praise for his host well today's lesson is no exception so just want to tell you a few words about hazak and tore any time especially their importance has been so so vital for judaism all over the world because during the covid outbreak that people can't get together they can't gather so what do they do it used to be when people come together for torah lessons but hazak they've solved the problem and they've expanded toward any time and when you can want you could sit in your living room or in your car or wherever you are you can even download these lessons and listen to them offline whenever you wherever you are wherever you are and you can have torah anytime that's tour any time and it's mean strong so hazak is about making your emunah strong making your belief hashem strong making your judaism strong and when you make your spirit strong it makes your body strong because the body and the spirit they're one they go together so this is really a great thing what they're doing uh and it's remarkable take that talk about worldwide outreach worldwide out which are people that live in places and many people tell me that i've seen you on tour anytime and where do you live somewhere in tennessee or in indonesia jakarta was listening to torah lessons in jakarta yes at already time a person from jakarta told me i heard i saw you on tour anytime otherwise they wouldn't have any other toy lessons so just imagine what this is doing and i wish that everybody in hazak can tour any time everyone's involved in should have much much uh success and be able to expand like as we say in hebrew to expand the spread of torah and bringing people closer to hashem because that's mashiach talk about people closer to hashem we're now at the time where kids are going back to school uh just one little thing people right and left what hazak does and people don't know about has been instrumental in moving over a thousand children in the new york area alone we're not even talking about in other areas because hazak is based in queens but as we just said they operate only in queens but they operate all over the world moved a thousand children from secular education to torah education this is a revolution in judaism this revelation but it's a quiet revolution it's a quiet revolution as you can see and when ground grassroots judaism being spread all over the place and there's hazak's fingerprints wherever you go so anything we could do to help or to support hazakanization it's a my deepest recommendation it is a big mitzvah a big misfit with hashem's loving grace today's lesson is our fourth lesson and that let's be our best series it's about self-assessment choosing the right goal hashem's loving grace choosing the right goal is so important but i'm just profess preface with a little story that i made an actuality of a story out of kabbalah and kabbalah describes what happens to the soul when the soul goes to the next world well so goes next world people think that purgatory is the fire it's it's physical fires and it's it's what people know as hell no have you ever been embarrassed and you see what happens to a person who's embarrassed their cheeks get flushed and you lose the color what's the embarrassment something some song has shown something that he or she is ashamed of what happens is when the soul goes into the next world you can imagine today's i'm making this a little modern imagery but they show you two videos you go into this big theater and the soul is on stage okay after 120 years you're on stage and you can't see what's going on out in theater that maybe in the balcony is that the justices of the heavenly court the judge them in court and in the audience are your great your grandparents your great-grandparents your great-great-grandparents that's sadique with previous generations and they're watching what happens they care a lot about you they're watching what happened to the court case but the court case is prefaced with these two movies what's the first movie oh wow the first movie is really embarrassing because the first movie shows us everything that we've ever done since our beginning of our lives since the day number one on earth and people think that they do something and no one knows about it it's all recorded like our sages and and pierce and ethics the fathers everything is recorded everything is there and perceives oh wow it is so embarrassing not only that he sees but the judge is a heavily court c and and your relative your deceased relative people care about you see all this thing oh wow it's really but there's something worse than the first film let me show you a second film and what happens is you look at this big screen everybody's like a big screen and there's nothing that showman could do then the shama could feel like it's a straight shack it feels like it's a straight jacket and it can't move and it's swiveled turned around to look at this screen and looks at the screen and watches the second movie the second movie is the embarrassing movie the second movie shows what you could have done with the abilities and the aptitudes that hashem gave you with all the good qualities hashem gave you and what did you do wasted time on social media wasted time on facebook wasted time on instagram wasted time gossiping with the guys or with the girls about things that are inconsequential you could have been doing productive things what's the great thing about our our great sages the rambam that aries all the arizona lived at young age robbie knocking on the breasts at the very young age the arizona regulator didn't make it to 40 but look at the monumental things that they they did affecting all of our people for prosperity now that old men caring for posterity because they didn't waste any time so this is the thing we're going to make sure that we want we don't want to save that embarrassment this lesson pay attention this half hour is going to save a lot of embarrassment in this world in the next world because we're going to learn how to choose the right goal and choosing the right goal it keeps us from making a lot of mistakes and keep us from missing our own personal bus imagine that you come a second late to the bus station at the last bus to take your destination and it's gone so what do you do you miss the bus with this today's lesson we're not going to miss the bus we're not going to miss the train all right but what happens people are afraid to ask themselves serious questions in life you know why they're afraid because they might get some answers that they don't like so in order to do self-assessment in order to really make personal growth we have to leave comfort zone living comfort zone do this in the gym and stay with the body same with the soul a person cannot make spiritual personal great personal growth a growth of the body growth of muscle strength of muscles by being in comfort zone in the gym doing only the exercise they're comfortable after strain you have to work hard and the same thing is an emotional growth personal growth and spiritual growth that we have to strain we have to work hard so the first thing we have to do is to assess ourselves wait a second where am i and where am i going when the previous lessons we talked about where we are and how to go forward now we're going to go forward so we're going to ask ourselves five significant questions and write these down i'll put these on the screen for you remember the question first question would ask us is what gives me the feeling of inner gratification ask yourself what makes happy what gives me the feeling of inner gratification the second question we're going to ask ourselves and a lot of people are afraid people are going through live what they call swimmers called shredding water they're not going forward and they're just treading water but what happens in life if a person just shreds water it goes back doesn't say the current pushes them back so a person has to ask himself the second question question number two do i have a goal or am i going nowhere so important that a person has a goal because without a goal not getting anywhere from just going through day to day how many people don't enjoy life they get up in the morning you don't want to get up in the morning go to the same work and the same humdrum hey excuse me sir excuse me madam why are you going to work i need to make money what do you make money for or to buy food this is it just so that your existence is like a pack mule dog does work so that his master will give him food you're human you're more than a pack mule you've got this special soul this nashama that hashem gave you so a person has to ask himself it's a sticky question but i have to ask himself if he wants to make personal gain he or she has to ask him themselves if they have a goal or if they're going anywhere or standing still the third question we need to ask ourselves am i living according to my desires or to the desires and expectations of others well maybe a person in question number two said oh yeah he has a goal but here's a goal this may be a goal that uh mommy or daddy wants for you or your father-in-law your mother-in-law wants for you or somebody else wants for you but do you want to do that is this your goal is this what you really want to do you have to ask yourself is this my desires or maybe it's peer pressure people do a lot of things wrong because that they're for their friends are playing with drugs or smoking some kind of substance and they want to be in but they do the wrong thing that's not what you want to do and this is going to help get cool this is detrimental to your health your physical health your spiritual health so you shouldn't be doing it the fourth question we need to ask ourselves is critical and many people don't even never ask themselves this question it is so basic and so important what are my good points question number four what are my good points it's so important ask yourself that and this all brings us to the fifth question and the first question is really important am i performing my task on earth hashem doesn't do anything without a purpose we don't do things without purpose if i would say okay sit at home now and raise your hand and lower your hand and raise the other hand lower the other hand that's stupid i'm going to do that but this is exercise something we know that we wouldn't do something that doesn't make any sense so why do we think that hashem would do something that doesn't make sense you know what that means it is really important to understand that if hashem sent your soul down to this earth it means two significant things that you have a job to do in this earth to maintain this earth and it means that the earth cannot exist without you otherwise it's saying that the creator does something for nothing and that is certainly not right hashem has an express purpose for everything he does so you have to ask yourself if you're performing your task on earth okay so by answering the five questions we just learned how to ask ourselves it's important that periodically each one of us we assess ourselves and ask ourselves these five important questions we not only determine where we are in life but we're able to choose our goal and it gives us direction and once we have a goal we can make much more progress and go up our own personal mountain and and hit the top at the peak so from this moment on i want each of you to do a favor for yourself for me do a favor for yourself do not look at anyone else's goal don't let anyone else's goal influence you the only goal that we're allowed to influence you is what the gomorrah tells us that if a person learns torah a person is allowed to look at another person another person gave himself the goal to learn the entire talmud two thousand uh seven hundred pages of talmud two things good morning learn the entire gomorrah and he says wow he could do it i want to do it too and this gives him a push this gives him a push that is something that one is allowed to do to look at someone else's progress in torah but he wants to make that progress too but you have to understand maybe your pace is different if you have a different teacher you can learn differently but basically you don't ever want to look at someone else's goal if someone else wants to be a professional baseball player that doesn't make anything it does make a difference to you or if someone is a great musician oh i want to be a great musician too maybe that's not the best thing for you we know why he met because torah is good for all of us no matter what we do if we're a accountant a lawyer a salesman a cab driver a bus i know a cab driver who by the time you've 85 he never missed a day of daf yomi and it takes a seven year cycle to learn learning one page of gomorrah a day you could finish a gomorrah in seven years and he learned eight cycles of daffy me in 56 years a cab driver retired cab driver from new york he came to live in jerusalem his name was hanina and he finished shots when i knew him and this was 20 years ago he finished shots eight times he finished learning the entire gamora eight times is something what a fantastic goal and that's what cab driver did so first good look wait a second he was driving a cab all day long in manhattan but yet he set aside time day and night every single day to to learn a page i can do this too this is a goal we can all can do so torah is something that is for all of us but in outside we're talking about our career or we're talking about our mission in life our particular mission in life not just something we all have to pray we all have to learn torah we all have to perform the commandments of the torah them it's full but in addition to that to our particular particular job in life uh this we have to ask ourselves these five questions okay so now let's go back and elaborate on each of the five questions and learn them a little more in depth what this means i said our first question is what gives me the feeling of inner gratification in order to learn what gives us a feeling of inner gratification we have to differentiate between a temporary thrill and lasting gratification let's examine a temporary thrill a great meal at a restaurant or you go to a new york yankees baseball game and and they won the game you had a great thrill that's not gratification long time because today the yankees won tomorrow they're going to lose i said so you move you lose you you lose your good mood because your team lost no lasting gratification means that it goes with you your entire life and makes you feel good your entire life because you know what you're doing you believe in what you're doing even something difficult for example you take an israeli soldier that really believes what he's doing and it's not like an american soldier in afghanistan that is thousands of thousands thousand miles away from home and it's israeli soldier no matter what border he's on he's two three hours maximum away from home he's protecting his family he's protecting his country he's right to realize what he wants to do so even though life isn't easy he believes in what he's doing has complete belief now you think of things as people sometimes what really makes you feel good some people answer a silly uh a silly answer oh what really feels good when i go to dunkin donuts and i get a chocolate covered doughnut that really makes me feel like i'm in heaven i certainly hope you're having us better than a dunkin donut okay but even if that is a heaven for you it's a very sorely limited heaven i'll tell you why because seconds after you take the last bite how much does the good taste of the doughnut stay with you ah but the calories stay with your midsection and the fat it stays in your blood coats your arteries the fat of a doughnut yeah it's got a lot of deep fried fire in the deep oil and and the carbohydrates they're not good but there's this white sugar it's not good for your system so we see that maybe the body has a quick thrill but the soul and the long-term health of the body they both suffer from the instant joy and that's what you we call bodily excess anything that we do bodily excess or bodily indulgence uh the body is gonna pay the price of a little bit of enjoyment and the body pays the price of its own health and well-being so that's not the type of gratification we want the instant gratification and this is something that uh advertising they tell you get the interviews your coca-cola generation it's in a hot day drink a coke okay it goes in a person's brain he drinks coke then he drinks the coke and he doesn't realize that there are ingredients inside the coke inside the coca-cola they're indeed addictive sugar is very addictive and there's so much sugar there okay so we can agree that drinking a glass of coke or chocolate covered doughnut as well as any other bodily indulgences gotta leave us laughing gratification so ask yourself something else what makes me feel really good inside what makes me feel proud of myself what gives me so much satisfaction that i don't need to praise the approval of other people everything you're riding you and your buddy you're riding down the road and you see an elderly couple and they got a flat tire on the side of the road so you pull over in the side you don't know these people and you say can we can we help you sir you say yeah we've got a flat tire and you know i'm not a little difficult for me to change your tire i'm waiting i'm trying to get some tow or somebody road help and nobody's answering that's no problem you got a jack in the car you got a spare tire yeah so you go in your buddy you and your buddy you open up his trunk he's got a jack he's got a spare tire you go and you change his tire and the old man he doesn't know how to thank you he wants to pay you no no no no sir this is my good deed this is my mitzvah especially if you've got to keep on your head it's a kid's hashem not only did you do a favor for the old man you did kadush hashem sanctification sim's name this person maybe you know just person uh whatever and he sees this observant jewish guy or deserve a jewish girl that came and they didn't appreciate his tire and didn't ask for a thing no no i don't need anything and then you drive away you drive away and you didn't want any kind of reward because you knew you did something so good and it makes you feel so great and this is thank you hashem you say thank hashem because you hashem gave you a gift of allowing you to be the person that does this good deed now some people they say wait a second maybe they want a reporter to take their picture and put a paper they did a good deed no that's not they don't they don't get the satisfaction because their goals are or self-publicity or whatever or they're seeking honor but when you do something really really good for someone or for yourself for society for hashem you don't need honor from anyone you don't need a pat on the back from anyone you know you've done something good this is true gratification when you know you've done something good okay so that is uh this is the type of path and life you want to take i'm going to take a path in life when you know you're doing something good you're doing something good for the world you're doing something good for society you're doing something to help and you can do the same this it could be you could be a teacher you could be a plumber you could be a plumber i know a young man in jerusalem who's got 10 kids and he doesn't take money for his torah story for his torah learning but he works at night as a plumber and a lot of times this guy comes home at night with no money why because he did the plumbing for some other torah scholar that can't afford it he says that's okay if he's got such a big talk on such trust in the sham hashem will pay for it and and people don't know he here you unclugged or drained unclogged i told you to hear that another family another tour family of uh a husband and wife and and six eight kids they could they could use their their bathroom they've got running water by virtue of this plumber you think a guy the plumber could be a person could be a plumber and be the biggest sonic in the world like a character out of the balchemtel i know a person like that and this just like that he doesn't want me to publicize his name but know this guy very well and you could be then you could have a person who's some big roshi shiva but yet he might be in it for his own prestige as not particularly best educated in the world doesn't matter what you're doing well you know you do something right and when you do something that causes hashem gratification you get the gratification hashem stands your gratification and you feel good inside you feel good inside for example suppose you gave a million dollars you're a philanthropist you gave a million dollars to build local myths at the local mikvah and now they have a love of manka and they give an award ceremony and they call you up and the head of the community in front of everybody everybody's applauding for you oh he is this is mr cohen he gave mr levy mr israel he donated a million dollars and here's a certificate you know the the donor then cohen mikvah the levy mcfadden everybody's applauding okay so you've got all this prestige oh yeah all this prestige but it doesn't penetrate your heart oh it's nice on the outside and it's nice to hear and it's nice to hear everybody applauding you but you don't get that glow on your heart to get that glow of gratification on your heart you have to have something that pleases hashem because hashem is the one that gives you this illumination on your heart his glow was when hashem is happy as you get a divine and we evoke a divine relation and you feel this goodness you know when you do something really really good and somebody else know about you don't need any publicity you don't need any award you don't need a certificate you don't need the applause because you have that globe this is what we're looking for when we're trying to find something that causes us the gratification okay so that's our first parameter what can cause me that type of gratification let me go that path and go in that direction our second question we asked ourselves do i have a goal or am i going nowhere so many people in modern society they're simply treading water they're like it should chill on a wheel they're spinning the wheel all day long they're not going anywhere okay so ask yourself is a bi-weekly or a monthly paycheck all you have for it to look to look forward to so people that get regular paychecks they're people with jobs and people with good jobs but still they're sad and depressed because hardship and parent and pain their peripheral issues when a person is focused on a goal when a person focuses on a goal going for a goal if he's got hardship it's got pain let's get sad and depressed because he's all the time got this goal he's plugging going forward and what happens when a person is sad and depressed you could usually see that the person is lifeless person doesn't have energy it's got what we call soul fatigue it doesn't go forward but a person is going forward even he's got a tough life a really tough life but he's got a goal and he's willing to pay you take a guy who's in paris island south carolina he's in the marine basic training he's got a goal he wants to be a marine that is really tough but he's going keeps going and guy like that's not depressed because he even though he's got a tough life he's got a goal he wants to meet so there's a big difference between somebody with a goal and somebody without a goal i'll give an example let's take two doctors two doctors the same type they're both in family medicine and one practices medicine as a means to make money and the other practice is medicine as a means to erase human suffering so the first doctor he'll never treat some inner city child that the parents can't afford but the second doctor acts like the creator he knows that uh hashem will give him a blessing okay he has compassion on the sick child on an inner city sick child and by treating him that merciful physician makes the world a better place and to do same doctors look at the same exact ones say okay we said well person's got to make money especially in modern society if somebody lives in new york or chicago miami or london the cost of living is so expensive well certainly that's true that's true but making money it's a goal but it's not lasting or gratifying yeah you have to pay your bills but one of two things rabbi nachman says one of two things happens to money either hashem takes the money away from the person or hashem takes the person away from the money but there's an expression in yiddish and a shroud there's no pockets you know why because you don't go into the next world with your money and we gave the example of a chinchilla okay at chinchilla it has uh it keeps running and running but it's on the same wheel but remember we're human beings we're not chinchillas and we have a goal if it's a meaningful goal no one can ever take that away from us take the two doctors again okay the first doctor's looking for money somebody take aways money but that second doctor that treated an inner-city child when the parents didn't have medical insurance parent couldn't pay for it but he relieved the suffering of that child that is a mitzvah that's a fantastic good deed a lofty good deed that no one can ever take away from that's his for the end of time okay so for us to get off the wheel of just existing and spinning our wheels we have to take our energy and direct it toward a goal right and find establish our goal okay to elaborate on our third question on a third question we asked ourselves this is something really important especially young people not young people everyone am i living according to my desires or am i living according to the desires and expectations of other people the other people could be family it could be peers it could be people in your community people in your synagogue okay look at this so many parents they force children to do things that the child can't stand i'll give you an example there's a father who never quite made the football team he loves football but i made the football team okay but he wants to relive his life through his son so he forces his son to become a football player he's got to be a football player and he forces football down the son's throat but maybe the son's dream is to play the violin to be another yitzchak prom and to be a violinist okay so under his father's pressure the son is going to be miserable because he's never going to be successful as a football player and he won't be able to develop as a violinist that's double frustration so many people are going around with a double frustration they're doing something to try and meet the expectations of someone else and they're not meeting their own expectations so they're doubly with the doubly failing they can't meet the other person's expectations whether it's a parent whether it's a spouse whether it's about with anybody anyone and they can't meet their own expectations which is a tragedy so true self-assessment honest self-assessment means taking a serious look at ourselves and asking ourselves probing lie busting questions such as am i doing what i want to do am i walking down some path that somebody else made for me or am i following the path that's right for me ask yourself these questions myself don't be afraid look in the mirror and say what do i want from myself what do i want for myself where do i want to go am i properly using my talents and strengths well the answers to those questions and they're difficult questions but most people never ask themselves these questions these are the additional markers that mark out our path in life up our personal mountain okay so let's elaborate now on our fourth question sounds like a silly question but it's so very basic what are my good points okay are good points you know what they are they're the special qualities and talents and aptitudes that the creator of the world gave every one of us these are the good points that enable us to accomplish our mission in life and to follow our own path climb up our own mountain they're the tools that help us get up the mountain just like a mountain climber he's got a hammer and he's got uh he's got ropes he's got everything he needs to climb up a mountain he's got these big iron pegs and nails that he can knock into knock into hard rock in order to tie a winch around there and pull himself up he's got tools that he needs to get up the mountain we all need certain tools to get up our own mountain to get up our own path and we we'd have our own backpack just like the climber does and uh we're gonna learn that in our next lesson but back that's a meanwhile we have to ask ourselves what do i have in my backpack what are the tools i have my backpack what are my good points my tools these are my good points what am i going to war with do i have a plane do i have a ship do i have a rifle to have a tank i soldier's got to know so he's gotta know what kind of who's he fighting for is he is a infantry soldier a tank soldier is he an airman is he in the navy if he doesn't know what his tools are how can you know how to fight the war okay so let's go on to our fifth question our fifth question is continuing on with the soldier him am i fighting my war am i performing my task on earth am i doing what hashem wants me to do the mission that he sent me to do and how can i know this at first to know what the mission that hashem wants me to do i have to realize my talents and aptitudes that's why i had to ask myself talents what is hashem what are the tools that hashem are giving me in other words if hashem made me five foot four instead of six foot ten maybe if i'm six foot ten i got a chance of playing in the nba if i'm five foot four i don't have much of a chance to play in the nba so that means if i'm five foot four shem created me short and shem probably didn't expect me or want me or it's not my mission in life to play professional basketball okay so we have to in order to ask ourselves am i performing my mission on earth we have to answer the first four questions now we get to the fifth question mike where's my instrument on earth and this is the special task that hashem sent me to do and we're going to talk all about in our let's let's be our best that hashem creates each of us with our own unique traits and you know something beloved brother sister you are no exception you're no exception i ship creating you with plenty of good points and if you don't know them gotta get to work look your new points because if you don't know your good points uh you can't be you can't be performed your mission in life and so don't let society fool you don't let people put you down you can't put down and once again you're hashem's beloved son your son's beloved daughter and if shem put you on this earth hashem gave you tools important tools to go to war with so what is social media and advertising and modern society how do they fool a person and they do a person what will it do they they they they really they rip off a person i rep a person because they try and set material goals for people let's see material goals yeah because they want you to buy something or use something and but the soul is not satisfied for material goals the soul is not satisfied for making money like we gave the example the two doctors all the money you want king solomon says that a person that searches with money doesn't die with even half of his uh bodily urges being met and adam that's what king solomon the white small man tells us but a person that has that doctor that treated the inner city kid his parents couldn't afford he's got the satisfaction has glowing satisfaction for and hashem's gonna help with hashem will give him three times the money all kinds of different ways but you have to remember material amenities they can't buy character improvement they can't buy inner peace and they won't enable you to leave your mark on earth unless your goal is to be some kind of major philanthropist if you want to be a major philanthropist like a reichman and you want to be able to keep uh yeshivas and coil him alive you want to be you want to be able to give hazak and tour any time and chickens for shabbas 10 million dollars a year that's a good goal but this your goal your goal is not the money it's be able to give these organizations the money for all the good they could do that's all right but look at the people fame and fortune people like marilyn monroe or elvis presley or janice joplin or jimmy hendrix these papa movie stars and rock stars a long list of other rich and famous people they had all the money and fame and everything they wanted but they all committed suicide and they all left the world at a young age so uh you have to go back and go back and review our previous let's be our best uh lessons you can see them you can catch them on on youtube on the hazak station on youtube and we discussed where we're going so once we ask ourselves the five candid questions that we said in today's lesson and we assess ourselves give ourselves answers questions and we add our own personal prayers to help us to ask some help us receive clarity then we can really establish a meaningful destination in life that gives us a renewed power to be our best and we can put aside we don't have time anymore for inconsequential endeavors somebody wants us to gossip not on time for that i gotta go get my goal and that's a fantastic blessing so now we've devoted a half hour to establishing where we want to go in life and how we want to do it okay so now we're ready to identify our own particular tools we're going to do that next week but meanwhile ask yourself these five questions sit with yourself review them and establish your goal and hashem should help you reach your goal and all your heart's wishes for the best on main but before we close off i want to tell you uh about chickens for shabbos our wonderful sponsor chickens for shabbos is an arm it's a long arm of ya de lieser yeah deliezer if you talk about a superpower you think of somebody's superpower would you say superpower russia china united states if i would tell you we're talking about doing good things you know the superpowers in doing good things yada lieser and one of the branches the main branch that superpower was chickens for shabbat that sounds like a silly name no it is not a silly name chickens for shabbos takes hungry families takes one parent families takes par can't afford it here in the land of israel and puts food on their table for shabbos the chicken for shabbat says it's very i said but even deeper than the food they put on the table they put food in hungry kids souls imagine a father that's up and left their families like that one parent family where the woman is in aguna she's left with before she can't remarry because his husband disappeared maybe flaked out at the
