Do something Take Initiative To Help People #rabbiyaronreuven #inspiring #orthodoxjudaism

But, what's the point? The point is if we apply these things in our day-to-day life, we could become better people. Not just better ever the shame, a better servant of but also better quality human being. If you're going to constantly wait for other people to ask you for stuff and never take the initiative, then you might as well be a vending machine. Press the button, Coca-Cola comes out. Press the button, money comes out, ATM machine. Press the button, you know, some something comes out. Might as well be a vending machine. Maybe should have created you as a vending machine instead. But, if you're going to start thinking for yourself, what can I do to improve the world around me? How can I help the people around me? You work for a company, for example. Don't wait for your boss to give you something to do. If he's already giving you a salary and you happen to have a job that perhaps doesn't have a full-time schedule, meaning that sometimes you have a job to do, sometimes you just sit there collecting dust. Don't be one of those losers that collects dust. Bring something good to the table. Why? The company's paying you for YOUR TIME. THEY'RE NOT PAYING YOU TO sit there. THEY'RE PAYING YOU FOR SOMETHING. They're paying you to do work. Do something. Take the initiative. Anything else I can do? Anything else I can improve? Anything else I can do to bring more money to this company, more good to this company, more customers to this company? Yeah, but you're the clerk. Yeah, I'm a clerk, but I don't I happen not to have anything to do right now as a clerk. Is there anything else I can do for now, for this next hour, until my next appointment, until the next thing happens? Be one of those people. Be a doer. That's how you can become a leader. That's how you can become somebody useful to society. But, if you're one of those people that's only going to do once people ask you, you're never going to make it, not in this world or the next.
