Make Every Day Count: Living with Purpose

In Pirkei Avot, Rabbi Tarfon said: “The day is short, the work is great, the workers are lazy, the reward is abundant, and the Master of the house is pressing.”
רַבִּי טַרְפוֹן אוֹמֵר, הַיּוֹם קָצָר וְהַמְּלָאכָה מְרֻבָּה, וְהַפּוֹעֲלִים עֲצֵלִים, וְהַשָּׂכָר הַרְבֵּה, וּבַעַל הַבַּיִת דּוֹחֵק
We often think we have all the time in the world. “I’ll get to it tomorrow,” we say, while putting off the very things that will help us grow. But this mindset prevents us from reaching our full potential. If we keep thinking there’s always more time, we risk never achieving what we’re truly capable of.
