Instant vs Delayed Gratification & What About Karma?
from The Wisdom Calling Podcast · host Bobo Beck
We continue our search of wisdom, this time from the case study of Jacob and Esau. Even from birth Jacob was a deceiver. There's an interesting look at both the dangers of instant gratification and the benefits of delayed gratification. The deceiver ended up meeting his match with his uncle Laban and was circumstantially forced to work hard over a long period of time before receiving his return on investment. Many today would think Jacob experienced karma and got back what he deserved. But is that what took place? Or, were there other factors in play? Tune in as Bobo leads this timely discussion.
