Some people focus on their responsibilities in Olam Hazeh. They don’t think of earning a reward for the next world, like living for Heaven. Rather, serving Hashem here because that’s what is known for sure.
Dunno, I noticed that some people focus more on the afterlife, which to me feels weird. I want to be good in this world (though I am not totally religious so I don’t know if I can reply here). I believe that our souls are immortal. Just not expecting some eternal prize for doing mitzvot. More like getting closer to Hashem.
Is that weird?
And am I misunderstanding why some people fulfill mitzvot for the sake of a good life in Olam Habah?
Thanks
