Inspirational Living: Life Lessons For Success & Happiness

Listen to episode 896 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Character & Happiness | Self-Development Podcasts. Edited and adapted from Character and Happiness by Alvin Edwin Magary.Motivational Podcast Excerpt: If you and I are not changing ourselves constantly, we are not fulfilling the character of our potential. It is a persistent and destructive heresy to say that our characters are fixed by influences outside ourselves. The weak person excuses themselves by saying that this or that unfortunate characteristic comes naturally to them. But it is all the more a discredit to them, that being conscious of some particular natural tendency to bad conduct, they have not gained a victory over their primitive self. ---------------------Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

Listen to episode 895 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Recovering Your Happiness & Joy. Edited and adapted from The Joy that No Man Taketh from You by Lilian Whiting.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: It is true that many troubles are inevitable. They are a component part of life. Death is the universal human experience. Illness is largely so (in slight or serious degree). Misfortunes are, practically, universal, in some form or other. There can be no woman or man who is so great, or so good, or so distinguished, or so rich, or so fortunately placed in this world, who is not liable to almost any kind of misfortune.And yet.....---------------------Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

Listen to episode 894 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Evidence of the Spiritual Life | Uplifting Podcast. Edited and adapted from A New Philosophy of Life by John Herman Randall.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: The first question to be faced frankly, and if possible, honestly answered, is this: “Is there a normal spiritual life possible to all people — to be lived not in some distant heaven, but here and now in this present world? And if so, of what does it consist, and how is it to be attained?" Let’s think briefly of the deeper meaning of life as we know it, and consider its development. The most wonderful, and altogether most significant thing to be said about life is this: ....Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/inspirational-living/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Listen to episode 893 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Start Living the Inspiring Life Meant for You. Edited and adapted from A New Philosophy of Life by John Herman Randall.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: It’s been said that character is practically fixed for most people when they reach the age of 25. I suspect this is true — for how many of us rigorously and systematically take ourselves in hand every day, and work on overcoming our imperfections, our weaknesses? Instead, we often excuse and attempt to justify ourselves, saying things like, "I can’t help it. It’s my temperament," or "My parents are the same way," or, "I am what I am." And, then, we go on spending our time in search of wealth or happiness, discharging more or less faithfully the duties of daily life, while spending little effort each day on eradicating our weaknesses and bettering ourselves.--------Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/inspirational-living/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle

Listen to episode 892 of the Inspirational Living podcast: How to Avoid Certain Failure | Success Podcasts. Edited and adapted from Fundamentals of Success by Hiram Abiff Boaz.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: No normal person wants to fail. Failure takes the sparkle from the eye, the color from the cheek, the edge from the intellect, and the nerve from the arm. The sense of failure depresses and dejects. It takes the sunshine out of life and brings the shadow. It takes joy from the heart, and spreads sorrow and gloom. To fail utterly robs life of all satisfaction and contentment, and fills it with misery and disappointment. And yet many do fail...---------------------Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

Listen to episode 891 of the Inspirational Living podcast: The Real You is Waiting to Come Alive. Edited and adapted from A New Philosophy of Life by John Herman Randall.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: The old materialistic idea of the universe, as a machine made up of physical matter, and run simply in accordance with certain physical laws, is gone. We live in a universe alive throughout, surcharged with vital energy, throbbing and pulsating with powers of mind from its very center to its farthest circumference; not a dead world, not a mechanical world, but an Organism which is living, breathing, and pulsating constantly, with infinite energy, infinite life, infinite power. ---------------------Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

Listen to episode 890 of the Inspirational Living podcast: The Secret of Living a Successful Life. Edited and adapted from The World Beautiful by Lilian Whiting.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Success in life is too largely attributed to special gifts or exceptional good fortune, or of some combination of the two, rather than to simple duty and the obligation of all aspiring people. That is to say, it should be held as the normal and not the abnormal condition. To achieve success is not merely.....---------------------Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

Listen to episode 889 of the Inspirational Living podcast: How to Succeed in the Battle of Life. Edited and adapted from A Book of Friendly Thoughts by Nixon Waterman.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Half-way, half-hearted doings never amount to much. Battles are not won with flags at half-mast — they are run up to the very top and waved as far toward the heavens as possible.If we lack enthusiasm, we are almost as certain to fail of achieving an end. A listless, lackadaisical spirit may get on all right, so long as the path of life is all on a level or down grade, but when it comes to hill-climbing, and the real experiences of life that develop character, we are likely to give up the contest and surrender the prize.---------------------Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

Listen to episode 888 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Self-Knowledge to a Higher Plane of Living. Edited and adapted from As Ithers (Others) See Us by John Thomas Huddle.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: As a general rule, we are as ignorant of our power as a horse tied to a post is of its strength. Under the influence of passion or fear, the horse snaps the rein like a thread. In its newly- awakened strength it breaks the trappings of man as easily as Samson did the cords of the Philistines. So it is with us. Stirred by some great emergency, stimulated by some powerful emotion, we can perform feats of strength and daring that in sober moments seem almost impossible.  ---------------------Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

Edited and adapted from Things to Live For by James Russell Miller.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Many people throw away their chance in life because of discouragement. But, I hear some of you asking, “Okay, so how can we keep from being discouraged?

And since you can change yourself and your actions, you can determine what your fate is to be.To change yourself, you must change your thought, because you are as you think; and to change your actions, you must change the purpose of your life, because every action is consciously or unconsciously inspired by the purpose you hold in view.---------------------Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

Listen to episode 882 of the Inspirational Living Podcast: Understanding What Success Really Is. Edited and adapted from Successward by Edward W. Bok.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: In this age of big things, we are inclined to regard success as synonymous only with the higher walks of life, with great achievements. Success (in the minds of some people) is something which is only given for the fortunate to achieve — while others think that if we cannot do something that sets people talking or wondering about us (if our heads do not tower above those of our fellow beings), our lives, if not altogether negative, are still not successful.

Listen to episode 881 of the Inspirational Living Podcast: Success Never Comes Without This. Edited and adapted from Successward by Edward W. Bok.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Every woman and man in this world is created differently. No two are alike. Therefore, the nature, the thoughts, the character, and the capacity of one person is utterly unlike that of another. What one person can understand, another cannot. The success of one individual indicates nothing to a second person. What one is capable of doing is beyond the power of another. Hence it is important that, first of all, you should.....Our Sponsors:* Check out Factor and use my code living50 for a great deal: https://www.factor75.com/Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/inspirational-living/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Edited and adapted from Joy Philosophy by Elizabeth Towne.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Fear makes you feel paralyzed. Ignore it. Rise up and ACT, and you will see how little power your fears really have. Fear is but a paltry stage-trick hypnotist. You cannot be hypnotized if you refuse to look at fear.

Listen to episode 879 of the Inspirational Living Podcast: Work, Play & Keeping a Youthful Spirit. Edited and adapted from Invincible Power by John Henry Remmers.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Your life must be organized. The very planets in the heavens demonstrate this law, and thereby prove that the universe could not be sustained if it were not for the potent principle of Order. In the Divine plan there is no confusion. All things move deliberately for the purpose of growth. Likewise it must be in your every-day life if you desire to live on and develop. It is your choice to govern yourself in an orderly way according to the laws of progress, or in an indifferent manner, which leads you ever deeper and deeper into a maze of doubt and confusion.
