Simplified Meaning:

Being holy or spiritually pure isn't something that happens by accident or without effort. It requires conscious decisions and actions. Imagine trying to get fit; you can't just sit on the couch and expect to become healthier. You have to exercise regularly, eat the right foods, and keep a positive mindset. Similarly, becoming holy involves making choices every day to be kind, honest, and do what's right. It's about being mindful and working towards being better every day, rather than hoping it will just happen on its own. So, to be holy, you need to put in the effort and be dedicated, just like you would with any other important goal in life.
