A man goes to a rabbi and says, “Rabbi, my house is so small, my family is miserable, we’re all on top of each other. What can I do?”
The rabbi says, “Do you have a goat?”
The man says, “Yes.”
The rabbi says, “Bring the goat into the house.”
The man is shocked, but he trusts the rabbi. A week later he comes back: “Rabbi, it’s terrible! The goat smells, it makes noise, everything is worse!”
The rabbi says, “Good. Now bring in your chickens.”
Another week later: “Rabbi, it’s unbearable! The goat, the chickens—there’s no space, no peace!”
The rabbi says, “Bring in your cow.”
A week later the man is desperate: “Rabbi, I can’t live like this!”
The rabbi says, “Now, take the goat, the chickens, and the cow out of the house.”
A few days later the man returns, smiling: “Rabbi, life is wonderful! The house feels so big, so peaceful!”
The rabbi nods: “Exactly.”
