Your Personal Mission in this World - Rabbi Dovid Goldwasser

we're starting off with a very interesting idea about accomplishing in life what do I do in life it's a day after Yom Kippur a man comes into the office and young man says Rebbe I gotta talk to you I said yes tell me he says I messed up it's one day how you messed up what with he says read me don't ask don't ask I tried I messed up I said don't worry it says we shown the hezmana bono it's a birthday for the hedge boat but you can still wipe it clean until no shana raba until the time you're going to take the whole shine note and beat them don't worry about it you're gonna be good but how are we supposed to really progress in life and do the things that we need to permit me I would like to learn together with you on this most most auspicious occasion a Mishnah you have a guy walking on Queens Boulevard whoa it's a big Boulevard we shoot or a beam while he's walking on Queens Boulevard all of a sudden he sees something rah anti-messiah he sees the last object and what does he do oh he falls on it he falls on it he was running to pick it up but he fell on it the Mishna says another person came along the heavens Igbo and he grabbed that object zecha half of xigbar zakappa the one who grabbed it he gets it even though the first guy riot amatzia he was the first one to find it so what happens Queens Boulevard the guy sees gold watch what's the best gold watch anybody which one Rolex you better learn that I thought okay for you were gonna say Rolex tonight he sees the gold Rolex diamonds on it he's running Queens Boulevard he trips he falls on it but Hashem it's underneath people see him on the ground stretched out Oh colossal aah horns honking by like God everybody's going crazy people are running people and jumping there what to do he lifts up his head and he says it's okay it's okay I found a gold Rolex and it's underneath he picks himself up a little bit another guy quietly quietly runs grabs the gold watch and now he has it who is the Dean width who gets the watch the one who grabbed as Esha has a sigma the one who grabbed it why why asked him before she because he did and my I said he did something he did an action he just didn't stand there or fall on it or what I sham wants us in this world to do is action to do things to do it we said yesterday all the things that we want to do today is the day for action tonight you come after sending a whole day a whole day in a whole night in show the ivona of yom kippur it's exhausting you're faster the whole day look at everybody that came tonight you are doers you are the ones that the mission that talks about chef is ich you go for divine Shimizu Shah you go for spiritual holy things and you walk and you run and you grab and you do and that is what I share wants from all of us now it's an interesting thing if you take a look at the amount that a person can do in one day I said a lot a person can pray 3:3 lot could even pray more so we say so what am i doing when I reload if the robbed is spraying uh-huh that's good then I know I'm covered but myself I do a few of it all do some things maybe a Shem listens maybe a Shem doesn't listen well there was an unbelievable thing rev Addis was in Mexico City Mexico City and there was a guy that traveled to Mexico City because he wanted to see Ravana's he wanted he shall pray for him he needed some type of Yeshua so he waited and there was a line he didn't get him the first day he went back to his hotel Mexico City came the second day he couldn't get anywhere near him came the third day that was it he's leaving he didn't get into the rabbi so he starts to ask everybody I need protects eeeh who do I pay how do I get in he talked to the garbage said I waited three days I travelled to ask the rabbi to pray for me and now I'm not getting it and he's leaving and what do I do so he went and the gaba went to about us and he said what do I do Ravana said when I'm leaving I'll see him on the way out so finally this man he's pleading with ramadas please please Rebbe I'm begging you that you should pray for me provider said are you religious man yes of course I pray three times a day oh you pray three times a day so why are you coming to me you're talking to Beret alum yourself you're talking to a sham you made this whole trip to talk to me I'm a sheliak for you yes but you go directly to a Shem why do you need to go to Ashley ah the man was baffled the rabbi no can pray for me the Rebbe has the cloak but me do you want to know what it says Lakota Mehran that every person if we only would realize what our current Fela is we would pray it says in Midrash shock heart all that we would pray from the moment that we get up in the morning until the moment that we go to sleep at night we wouldn't stop praying if someone would say I'm handing out right now hundred-dollar bills so you stand there you take your hat you take whatever you have your bag you say please please give it if he's in the middle of giving you $100 bills you say you know what I need a coffee break I'll come back in an hour you don't do that you say there you get the money that's Fela every single thing that a person prays for they are able to get a response and an answer so first we have to understand that our mission is to be miserable Hashem to pray a Shem to thank a sham in a school ah to get good things if you think of Shem in advance if you think I sham before you get something a lot of times a person says I think I sure master I get it let me see it first and then I'm gonna think I shall believe me I'm gonna make a million dollars and I'm gonna give that sadaqa somebody called me up on the telephone on the way out here is had the answer it could be a Shayla could be something important about this suka I answered it yes I just made today a forty five thousand dollar deal I got made forty five thousand dollars I said well unbelievable just above Shamu thank gosh am yes yes and I'm gonna tell you rabbi I'm putting the forty five thousand dollars into investment and if the investment pays I'm going to give to you for it sadaqa to be distributed whatever they said it I said the investment already worked out you just told me you've made that money today oh no but I want to make more if it's of that guy said don't make morph into that guy right now or maybe I'll say give you may give that will give you the ability to make on investment oh thank you for it's a towbar and we appreciate it I'll let you know how the story unfolds as the time goes on the wrong idea a sham gay to a person the money what do you think it is it is only that we should be initially theme of a sham that we should be able to give to others that is our in this Sion Hashem said I gave you cold you can do whatever you want you can come tonight and you can go to a show you're in Torah and we can all be uplifted especially the day after Kippur how wonderful it is or a person can take their brains and all that they know and they can go to somewhere for entertainment and be involved in that every individual has a choice what they're to do a choice when we get our money our things what we do with them it's all what a person envisions in their life as their mission its what a person says maitake salad on vellum Oh what is the purpose of our people in this world why was I created here what am I supposed to be doing you know it's an interesting thing the original the great Rebbe Israel a vision says on the time when we do teshuva so we do it three different levels one if a person didn't Avera a person didn't have a rod so if someone did a sin they got to do teshuva what's a example of a sin so I tell you the Vilna go on he did a sin what did he do he was walking and he didn't realize that it was night and he bumped in to something that was Mucca Mucca so you can't handle it on Shabbat right so what did he do he fainted he fainted something like that happened he fainted he couldn't take it that is sensitivity to a novena when his own each heard that there was a safer Torah Lowell a know he fell down to the ground do you know what hasani's did fainted he could not be sober listening to it that is the sensitivity that he had for real news what is our job in this world our job in this world is to be sensitive so if I did I know there are I have to do teshuva I got a repent if I did something wrong if I said something about someone I shouldn't have if I was not nice to my mother Oh to my father I didn't pay attention to them correctly I got to be careful I got to know what I did and I have to do tissue about for it if by any chance I ate something and it wasn't the right hash caca I got to be careful I have to do teshuva so that's the first level the second is of course we all do Mitzvah however there is some times that a person may have done a Mitzvah but it wasn't in the proper way I could have done it on a higher level I could have done a little bit better example of that would be someone asked me for sadaqa and I take a look at them and I go do they really need it they look to me pretty nice dress I think that they just came out from the infinity on the corner they drove also their shoes looked to me like they're expensive kind but you say no I'm going to be Mitka bare I'm not gonna think about that I give my money if a person gave their money like that and they did not try to hold back or they didn't say you know I gave that guy ten dollars you know what I couldn't do with that ten dollars no a person has the opportunity to do a mitzvah they do officially muth I am thrilled I don't care they came to the great Rubino Yoel and there was a guy that came in and started making complaints you don't know I have my wife she's not well Custer Shalom and I have this set on that Sarah and the sutler I've could not take it the great Rebbe no yo he had money on the table he took the whole pile he said please please I beg you take it so he took it the Goblet runs in Rabbid did you just give money that guy he said yeah he says I want you to know he said faker all the things he told you about he doesn't have the rabbi said burro how I'm so happy that he doesn't have those problems I'm now relieved I think I should it's beautiful that is the way a person should do a mitzvah any Mitzvah even if its father did not turn out so good do it be when you're there put yourself a hundred percent into every Mitzvah that is our mission the Mitzvah that is there I got to do with all of my heart with all of my life since the great Emmett he says the following why is it o Sigma Mitzvah party Eminem it's LA when you're involved in doing one Mitzvah you are exempt from the other Mitzvah you are completely exempt which is fascinating I'm right now involved in a Mitzvah I'm exempt from any other Mitzvah why maybe I could do two Mitzvah at the same time Rebbe hi I'm Oh Sarah used to have two pens one in each hand he would write on two different topics on the paper at the same time the own genius was able to write I can't write the one on the hill he's writing two at two different times it's an amazing amazing thing so what does it say oh segment Mitzvah potami no Mitzvah when you're doing the Mitzvah you've got to put yourself completely in there everything every bit of us has to go into that Mitzvah when I'm learning I don't hear anything else in the world I don't hear the telephone the telephone I don't hear nothing nothing in the world there could be a sonic boom and I won't hear it why because I'm in learning the great Rebbe oh yeah sure she heard sonically Rafa passaic adore an interesting thing happened they came and they said they want him to lay the cornerstone of the Achieva they're making a new yeshiva what is a bigger simpler than that and they wanted he should help with the laying of the cornerstone Evan Pina so of course Viviana Shu he's learning 23 hours a day he's not taking time off to go to the cornerstone with the sub and the whole thing so they said you know what we understand the Russia is Shiva and the Minaya everyone will come to him to Israel and we will bring the Evan Pina we'll bring it in just if the gun can put a little cement on the top we'll bring a little shovel it'll take him half a second rebellious Schiff said let them come good they came they brought the cement this stone they did it rebellious you've put some cement on it and then afterwards he wished them a big muscle toe gave them abraca sat right down on the table and began to learn completely completely took out the camera and learn the minute he'll said could we make like a little dance for a moment like could we sing in dance just we have everybody here just for a minute so they asked his son his son said yes so he says but won't it disturb the great Rob he said no he's not here anymore he's not here he's in his learning he doesn't hear a word that's going on so beastly mood means that when a person is in Fela they don't have the telephone go off they don't have other things now other distractions that a person when they're involved in the female Club their children they're given over completely to their child they don't know anything that is happening in that moment there was a little child and I happened to see her in Lakewood New Jersey and the mommy was sitting teaching Gamache beginners homage to the talk to the daughter you know what I heard the daughters say to the mother mommy could you shut yourself off she's live Ponemah live on believable domine sometimes it's the children that are going to teach so that means visually would I have to do teshuva if I did not do the Mitzvah completely it was a little bit missing so now I want to give it my all and I want to do tissue Vaughn it the rebus television said there's a third the third is I have a mission in life I have an ability that I can go very strong and I can do a lot I have to do teshuva that I did not reach my potential I stopped short I said I want to take it a little easy I could have gone the extra mile I could have done more I could have committed myself but I drew back a little bit and I said you know what I want to take it a little easy also no a person is obligated to go to the highest potential that they possibly can turn Arab on an interesting piece of Talmud a Niva I share that I shop by in Ladino there are three that are going to come to the den in the future a rich guy a rich guy a poor man and also the Raja the evil guy Oh Lonnie Omri so destiny tell me that poor guy why didn't you do Torah why weren't you involved so what happens if he says what could I do I had a work taro I was very busy and troubled with making my money and doing the things that I need to do so you know what they answer him were you any poorer than helium what did he let anybody up on the roof right then couldn't afford the penny to come into the Beit Midrash in sharra Tova it's free anybody can come in anyone can learn anybody can eat anybody can do what they want it's love but back in those days you had to pay so what happened so it doesn't have an answer the share the rich guy on rim low they say to him he comes before the den with a ma Louis October Torah why didn't you learn why weren't you involved would you do what was going on Wall Street if he says what could I do I got all kinds of real estate I got holdings I got stocks I got bonds had to check the tape see what's going on so they asked him a question wait a minute did you know the real answer did you know awesome do you know how rich he was do you know what it says about him uh-huh he had a lot more money than you could ever dream of he's answered then Russia comes the Russia the evil guy comes McNay they ask him the same question why he'd learn Torah why why tell me if he says no how you see I looked in the mirror I didn't realize how handsome a guy I am but I looked in the mirror and that I saw whoa whoa the total B III and I was troubled with my Yeasayer ah it said a guy like you go and have a party go out on the town hey Manhattan whoa b3 I was involved by a Sahara we were busy together they say no you Tom yourself were you any more handsome than your self it's a dick the one who caught the eye of Asia Sportiva are you better than him I guarantee you you were not yourself the one who everybody got jealous about yourself so nobody has an answer the poor man got his answer the rich man got his answer the evil guy got his answer the great question that is asked we are talking about regular people you and I or maybe me just regular some people no great we're not talking good Dahlia door we're talking you and me who was he giving us an answer to answer up the rich and the poor man in the wicked huh you're safe and those have been Qasim Hillel the greatest of the Great's you don't lay alarm on Hakeem Giants Giants how could they be asked to be like them it's an impossibility ask me why I'm not like succumb Avadh you ask me why I'm not like Rebbe moshe feinstein said setting the brother ask me why I'm not reveille no Yael I'll tell you because Gedaliah alarm I'm regular I'm just a normal regular person says the Great Manchester Russia is Shiva Rev Segel they heard Sadiq LaRocca the answer is they were all human beings just like you and me flesh and blood yet Saratov yet Sahara they had the same they had nice yo note Michigan Omega vert oh it's rugged all whoever was bigger than their friend they ate Sahara was much bigger I haven't say if I would have that guy CHR I'd be doing ok you know that's I think he's learning all day I don't want to have his because I don't know if it's much greater than mine says the Manchester Rocha is Shiva that all of them were human beings of flesh and blood but they were able to work with what they had and they continued to go level upon level upon level until they reached the level of Siddiq of mala I've even to be an angel that is the power that we have but we have to know that in life many times unfortunately we run away we see the challenge and we don't realize that the challenge was meant for us a lot of times a person will say you know Rebbe I'm going to tell you the truth I can do table mitzvah 612 I got no problem with 612 I can take the safer I'm it's vote I can show you mrs. I got the best each missus I have costs $200.00 tallit Katan you should know I have reached down to the ground the best wool handmade whoa I don't know whatever nobody has better than me my a throg

Hashem you don't know 612 shot nays I buy the best suit I check it I don't even try it on in the store I'm allowed to premium says you allowed to try I'm more mahira don't try it on first I check it then I try it on everything but there is only one little Mitzvah that I can do I can't do it Hashem that one don't worry about it that little one you know what it is yeah we know it I can't do it I tried I really tried but six 12 out of six 13 ain't bad that's a pretty good ratio some nobody's perfect right ain't I've waited Mela say nobody lived and into it sit so that's about one little thing hey give me a little slack right cut me a little slack it's a six twelve instead of six thirteen not bad Hashem said the reason that you came into this world my friend was for that six thirteen that is your lucky number the number that you got a difficulty with the number that you have a nice I own the number you gave up a long ago that is the one that you're here for that's the age canola Moe Bashar God that is the one that we are here to challenge to stand up to say - yay Sahara I'm going to show you I was not able to be midgut bear until now but now you're gonna watch me and you're gonna see look at the Godot Lima in the world that were able to stand up to the worst of the worst the worst and yet when the time came and they were challenged they had superhuman cohort to fight against da Sahara in the sat on super human Coco and take a look if you want in the Talmud in Tana and you will see so many different examples of some regular people that took to the challenge and were able to beam it got bare I ought to tell you a fascinating incident happened fascinating a guy came in to me he told me as a very big nice a on very very great nice I own he went and he met a girl and unfortunately the girl she's not from B'nai Israel so he says Rob don't tell me I have to leave her it's too late for that can i still be a religious jew he tells me in english and have my I don't know who to call it friend I would say it carefully Fred right can I do it I'm looking at him I say the first words that came to my mouth are you out of your mind what are you asking for it's an Essen but of kazeer but there's no nether what are you asking it's an impossibility you know what it's like I'm going to tell you what it's like there was a girl that was not well she got sick a young girl she got sick the doctor told her you must eat hazir you got to eat from the pig that's your f wha you got to eat from the pig and indeed today there is one medicine that uses a product that has one ingredient that stems from the pig everybody knows p/kaufmann fish in order for her to ever refer ah she'll have to do it they told this young girl young pure girl you're gonna have to eat from the pig she said I cannot they took her immediately to the Roth and they asked to rob the shayla with her standing there the rob was passaic he gave over in the halacha she's got to eat from the pig yes you must do it she said okay but under one condition only one condition I will eat if the show head show head is going to chef the pig if the show head is going to chef the pig then it's okay then I will eat it that girl was strong she was not compromising for nobody they know that unless they're going to do what she said there's no way on Hashem earth that she's gonna do it they got the show head the show head went to chef the pig hazir all of a sudden this show head has a Shayla Shayla on the lungs you know you have to check them sir is a Shayla so the show head comes to the Rob and he says what do I do in the Rob says this is Hazare what do you want me to do cashier cashaaron so gates a hacer hacer hacer a pig is a pig that is the same when this young man came in and said to me I want to be religious to ke Lukey mt.abu hotel vidiq to care was having out there kilo and that's a big key Lou no way a personal suicide in which way they're going that is our mission in life I got to know where my act and Leo and avi remember within the VAR bow you remember what happened they set up the dummies Bay ox and Ilyana Vietnamese bear and where did he say to the people on my thigh how long you going back and forth between about dah dah dah and I shamble okay it's Tyrell how long you going back and forth either choose a sham or choose the other that's the great rabbi a fiscal Abramski sip it's addictive raka how could I leave on nobody say that he's telling him either do this and go over there what don't say anything leave wherever they're at no he says Elio and avi was telling him you cannot be in both places you can't be married to whatever her name is and then you can be religious Jew then you come in the villa and you're shaking in your no way either either what Elio and avi said you got to choose your way in life you got to see which way you're gonna go it's a fascinating idea there was a great Sadiq rebel Abe Soros rebel Abe Labe was his name and it's interesting idea he was called after the name of his mother Sarah why because his mother was a young woman very exquisite young woman very there was a certain guy he was a lord they want to marry her the laka was at that time that anybody who one of these lords wanted to marry they could they saw that she was in great danger because he expressed his desire immediately they knew that they had to get her married to somebody there was no one for her to marry except for one elderly person an older man he agreed he is it Sadiq and he said okay I will marry her so she'll be married and then she'll be saved from the other guy and she married him everybody knew that the marriage was only to get her off the hook and after a while he would give to her a get it would give a divorce and then she would go and marry someone everything cooled down months passed they went to it as I can to the elderly man and they said okay could you please give to your wife again he said sure I will give to her not a problem however I would like to know if I could speak to her for just five minutes all I want is five minutes they said to him of course five minutes they figure he's going to say goodbye to her he goes he sits down with her he says the get is already being prepared you can have it in a half a second I don't care but I will tell you if you will stay married to me I promise you that you will have a son that will light up the eyes of cloudiest Rowell she stayed with him they had a son Reb laid the blame Soros so he went on Yom Kippur and it was in a city in the whole town had only nine people with him nine people not to have a minyan for Yom Kippur it's horrible think about in sharra Tova think about the beauty of that feel--it on Yom Kippur and then think about only nine people not even a minyan with such a great Sadiq like rebel Abe so he begged the people you mean to tell me there's nobody else Jewish in this town they said no no not one other person they said well there is someone but this person is so nasty you don't go near his door if you go near his door he'll curse you and he'll come out with a club he'll come out he'll beat you no one's going near his door Rebbe llave said i want to go tell me where he lives I'm gonna go they said I blame it you don't understand these things this man is violent he does not stand for anything Jewish he hates us I believe said let me take it myah cry out let me go they gave the address he goes he knocks on the door this man opens up the door he begins screaming you dirty screaming yelling but bleh put his hand up right in his face you listen to me for a minute you be quiet my mother was Mossad nephesh she self sacrificed not to marry out and you couldn't even do what my mother did the man heard woodruf blame said something about the way that he said it you can never tell when a person as a moment of charata a moment regret he put his head down never ever try to assess another Jew me Oh daya who knows the greatness of every Jew who knows the greatness of the littlest Jew the poorest Jew the littlest boy the littlest girl the people right here in this shul never ever underestimate he looks up and he says Rebbe what do I do is there ever tissue VAT for me can I ever repent the Rebbe says come with me for keep or come with me the day itsumo Shalom the day of Yom Kippur can forgive you for whatever you did this man followed her blade they walk into the show Roble takes his space shriyak sabor in the front he is Hassan the man who never came until that day sat in the back put his tally to over his head all they heard the whole night was him crying underneath the tallit rough lab was governing praying and in the back that man was crying he stayed the whole night and so did the great rabbi laid the next day they prayed the entire day the man continued to cry in to pray in the back neela Schmeiser el buro shame a sham who Elohim hashem who Elohim a shame oh hello game I bet everybody

chance to play for a major band a rock band it was a dream a drummers dream a lifetime dream to be able to go and play with one of the major bands it was difficult for him to play with a major rock
