Barrels Full Of Holes

Learn to see yourself as the day laborer who is paid to pour water into barrels which have holes. If he is foolish, he says, “Why waste my time?” But the wise man says, “I’m paid by the day. What difference is it to me if the barrels fill up or not? They’re paying me to pour water.”

(Vayikra Rabbah 19:2)
