Half full or empty? This is the question
As we mentioned, people tend to place more value on the final achievement of a goal, rather than on the endeavor itself. For instance, many people focus on getting their salaries at the end of the week, rather than on their actual work. How happy they feel when the work week is over and they have their paychecks in hand! For them, their work is merely a means toward receiving their money. This phenomenon is known to cause anxiety and even depression on the job. It can even lead to accidents, when a worker, daydreaming about the future, stops paying attention to what he is doing.

With t'shuva, the means become as vital as the goal. T'shuva penetrates all of the details of life and uplifts them to G-d. Everything is seen as important and necessary in the refinement and perfection of the existence. T'shuva enters every sphere of life, illuminating all things with the light of the future ideal, giving inspiration to all of man's work.
