The initial feeling that a baby gets
when he or she first stands is
unbelievable. They're so happy that they
stood
up that it's like the greatest thing in
the world. You look at their smile and
you say, "Wow, I want to be that happy."
Like this baby, this this this year old
baby is so happy that he stood up. Even
though he's going to fall in his tushy 2
seconds later, for those two seconds,
he's the happiest baby on planet
Earth. But then after a while, he's not
so happy about standing anymore. Why? He
wants more. He wants more than standing.
He wants to start walking. So he takes a
few steps and he falls. He gets a little
upset. So he gets up again and he falls.
He gets up again and he falls and it's
not enough him. He's not as happy. You
see him start walking, taking a step.
He's not as happy. When does he start
getting happy? I have to start taking
three, four, five steps. Like he's the
happiest thing in the world. Why? I took
four steps. But guess what? After a
little while, four steps not enough.
Why? He wants to run like his brother
and sister.
Why? It's not enough to just take three,
four steps. Yeah, but you were feeling
good yesterday. Yeah, yesterday.
Yesterday's a long time
ago. To a kid a long time ago is
yesterday. Then he starts running and he
runs and he feels good about it. But
then eventually that's not enough. He
wants something more. That's a balcha.
about Chubad that's going to continue to
aspire for more will get back that
feeling and more than what he had
originally but about chuva that sparks
but you know it's not really why he
gives another he know he's not allowed
to drive cuz the rabbi says you're going
to die you know you're not allowed to
touch different things so cuz the rabbi
says you're probably going to die rabbi
keeps saying you keep dying so he
doesn't move the whole he's asleep
keeps. Guess what? After 6 months of
this, he hates Shabbat. Why? He doesn't
know why he's keeping it. He puts on.
Why? Cuz the rabbi says, "If you don't
have it, you're going to
die." So he puts
on He
put after 6 months of this, he can't
stand going to sh. Why? He doesn't know
anything about this mitra. How is he
going to enjoy
it? was parked at standing. After a
while, standing is not enough. Why? The
wants more is telling you, why do you
lay? Why? Why is it square? Why is it
black? Why don't you ever see somebody
with pink and rims on a
twill?
Why? Why do we do it? What does the
Torah say about it? How come
the says there are certain people that
sin and they get punished for a year but
there are certain people that sin with
their body and their punishment is
eternally even after mashiach and says
what kind of example says example is
somebody that doesn't put on he goes to
gay
forever so long as he doesn't care he's
never going to enjoy the mitzvah he's
never going to get that original feeling
that he had in the beginning when he did
care. What do you think of when you
think of a baby other than
cute? You think of the baby's
personality. A baby's personality is
that he always wants more. He wants to
learn more. He wants to do more. He's
interested in everything. Everything
goes in his mouth. Everything he wants
to look at. Everything he wants to do by
himself. He says, "That's what you're
supposed to be. You're supposed to want
more. More of Hashem's Torah, more of
Hashem's mitzvot, more understanding of
the divine presence. More. That's what
we have ambition
for. About cha is like a baby. A convert
is like a baby. They want everything.
If you stay with that
mentality, you'll get really
far. You'll get to the holiest place on
earth, holiest place in the universe. If
you stay with that mentality and you
exercise that mentality of wanting more,
more mitzvot, more tora, more knowledge,
more clarity, you'll arrive at the
greatest point that anyone else
can. But if you stop acting like a
baby and you don't want more anymore cuz
you're happy with what you have, you
start acting like a
retiree. You just want to sit there and
do nothing until you
die. Then you start
suffering. Then everything becomes like
a burden. All mitzvot become like a
burden. It's like one sack of
potatoes. Why?
You don't want to put in anything into
it. You don't want it. When you don't
want something, automatically it becomes
bad. When you don't like your job, guess
what? Automatically, you start seeing
everything that's wrong with this
company. You don't want to do
mitzvot. All of a sudden, all the rabbis
are
terrible. All of a sudden, you're having
questions about
God. Who made God? How come you didn't
ask this the first five years?
[Music]
How come? Cuz it's not the question. You
don't want to be religious. You want to
be enjoy yourself in
g if you're going to do that. But once
you start
realizing my lack of enjoyment is only
because of my lack of
effort. When I put effort into it, I
liked it.
You have to find a way to push
yourself to start investing more. You
invest more into doing it, you're going
to start liking it.
