What if the finish line you’re chasing—more savings, a bigger house, a perfect career—keeps moving because it was never meant to come first? We confront the quiet bargain many of us make: “I’ll live a godly life after I’ve secured this world.” It sounds sensible, but it’s the very thing that delays meaning, drains joy, and blurs our priorities.

We start with a time audit that hits hard. If work gets eight to ten hours and the soul gets whatever’s left, no wonder we feel off-balance. Rather than scolding, we offer a workable reset: claim a protected daily block for prayer, learning, and acts of kindness, and then make that time count. Small, consistent rituals outperform grand plans that never begin. You’ll hear a clear analogy that reframes entitlement and gratitude—demanding guarantees from the Creator before committing is like asking a deposit from someone you already owe. Recognising our unpayable debt doesn’t shame us; it frees us from bargaining and invites us to act with gratitude today.

We also dismantle the false tradeoff between this world and the next. Aligning with divine guidance doesn’t shrink your life or your ambition; it purifies both. Integrity, presence, generosity—these are not obstacles to success but multipliers that stabilise careers, strengthen families, and calm the mind. By investing first in the next world’s currency, you’ll notice this world becomes more livable: fewer detours, cleaner desires, better decisions. And don’t miss the big news: Rabbi Dovid Sapirman joins us on Friday, bringing decades of hands-on wisdom and practical emunah to deepen the journey we’ve started here.
