Inspirational Living: Life Lessons For Success & Happiness

Listen to episode 795 of the Inspirational Living podcast: How to Make the Most of Life. Edited and adapted from Ready Money by George H. Knox.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: What is nerve? Nerve is that which enables a person to hang on and either lose everything or win out. It is undertaking more than ordinary things. It is taking big risks on one's own ability. It is holding the fort against all-comers. It is doing the thing which the ordinary person thinks is impossible. It is setting your standard twice as high as your colleagues would set it for you, and then reaching it. It is burning your bridges behind you and staking your all on your own endeavor. ---------Get the best of our podcast in book form by visiting: https://inspirationallifelessons.comGet our entire 700+ podcast archive, with full transcripts and without ads by visiting: https://livinghour.org/patron.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/inspirational-living/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy &

Listen to episode 794 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Overcoming the Biggest Obstacle to Success in Life. Edited and adapted from Self-Investment by Orison Swett Marden.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Ideas, thoughts, like everything else, attract what is akin to them. The thoughts which dominate the mind will tend to drive out their opposites. Optimism will drive out pessimism. Cheerfulness will drive out despondency; hope, discouragement. Fill the mind with the sunshine of love, and all hatred and jealousy will flee. These black shadows cannot live in love's sunshine.---------Get the best of our podcast in book form by visiting: https://inspirationallifelessons.comGet our entire 700+ podcast archive, with full transcripts and without ads by visiting: https://livinghour.org/patron.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/inspirational-living/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Listen to episode 793 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Break Bad Habits & Live a Larger Life. Edited and adapted from the book Within You is the Power by Henry Thomas Hamblin.Inspirational Podcasts: In order to find a way of escape from destructive habits and weaknesses of character, we must go deeper than actual deeds, for actions are effects of hidden causes. The cause of all action is thought. A thought is an action in the process of being born. It is true that we possess primitive desires and impulses, but these can be transmuted into noble actions and high achievement simply by directing our thoughts and attention to higher and better things. ---------Get the best of our podcast in book form by visiting: https://inspirationallifelessons.comGet our entire 700+ podcast archive, with full transcripts and without ads by visiting: https://livinghour.org/patron.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/inspirational-living/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy &

Listen to episode 792 of the Inspirational Living Podcast: Mastering Your Fate & Destiny | Life Lessons. Edited and adapted from The Book of Business by Elbert Hubbard. Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: The common idea is that success means great sacrifice, and that you must buy it with a price. In one sense this is true. To succeed you must choose. If you want this, you cannot have that. Success demands concentration, oneness of aim, and desire. Choose this day whom you will serve. ---------Get the best of our podcast in book form by visiting: https://inspirationallifelessons.comGet our entire 700+ podcast archive, with full transcripts and without ads by visiting: https://livinghour.org/patron.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/inspirational-living/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Listen to episode 791 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Building a Worthwhile Life | Living with Purpose. Edited and adapted from The Art of Being Alive by Ella Wheeler Wilcox.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: "The Life Worthwhile" differs in the minds of individuals. The scientist in the laboratory, the painter in the studio, the preacher in the pulpit, the lawyer in the courtroom, the teacher in the classroom, the carpenter on the building site, all feel that they are living a life worthwhile. And indeed so long as there is deep interest, enthusiasm, and pleasure in the life we are living that life is worthwhile. -----------Transform your life in 30 days with our MAJESTY meditation program: https://livinghour.org/majesty.

Listen to episode 790 of the Inspirational Living podcast: The Road Map to Happiness. Edited and adapted from Working With God by Gardner Hunting.Inspirational Podcasts: Let's use a little common sense. Isn't life a road that we should look upon exactly like any other road we have to travel? In the first place, all of us want to go places and do things, don't we? All right, then, that means activity on our own part. If we don't want other people to get all our rewards, and have all our fun, we have to get off our butts. If we sit down idly, twiddle our thumbs and wait, some fruit may fall into our lap, but not much. -----------Today's podcast was sponsored by Shopify.

Listen to episode 789 of the Inspirational Living podcast: The Keys to Realizing Your Ambitions. Edited and adapted from Dynamic Thought by Henry Thomas Hamblin.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: whatever your ambition may be, once you have started, stick to it, do not change until your object is achieved. If you choose wealth, continue to pursue it; if greatness, concentrate all your powers on winning it — affirm its accomplishment; visualize yourself having achieved the object of your endeavors. If you will do this, success will be yours.To change about, however, is fatal. Success is largely a matter of concentration, but it is equally dependent upon staying power....-----------Transform your life in 30 days with our MAJESTY meditation program: https://livinghour.org/majesty.

This bit of ancient wisdom does not refer to good eyesight. It was the eyes of the mind that counted in the days of old, just as they do today. Without them, we have just so much power as a driven ox — and we are worth only a little more than they. But given vision (imagination) the ability to visualize conditions and things a month or a year ahead, there is no limit to our value or capabilities.---------Get the best of our podcast in book form by visiting: https://inspirationallifelessons.comGet our entire 700+ podcast archive, with f

If much of our ordinary happiness comes from the outside (pleasant experiences and environments), we are at the mercy of any bad event. The more we look for happiness from outside amusements and surface delights, the more dependent we are on circumstances. ---------Get the best of our podcast in book form by visiting: https://inspirationallifelessons.comGet our entire 700+ podcast archive, with full transcripts and without ads by visiting: https://livinghour.org/patron.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com

Yet you must not think that I am only speaking of the Courage that can face a sudden danger. I want you to learn such strength of mind that fear can gain no mastery in the smallest happenings of your life. There is cowardice of thought, as well as action, and if you fail when some great danger presses, it is because you could not meet (in thought) the little daily tests. ---------Get the best of our podcast in book form by visiting: https://inspirationallifelessons.comGet our entire 700+ podcast archive,

There is also the personal equation, the peculiar angle from which each person looks at life. ---------Get the best of our podcast in book form by visiting: https://inspirationallifelessons.comGet our entire 700+ podcast archive, with full transcripts and without ads by visiting: https://livinghour.org/patron.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/inspirational-living/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Listen to episode 783 of the Inspirational Living podcast: How Successful People Think, Grow, and Win. Edited and adapted from Success & How to Win at Life by B.F. Austin.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: How is Success Won? One great secret of success is found in Concentration. This consists in centering our thoughts upon a single object and holding this object in the mind's eye persistently. The thoughts, purposes, will power, effort and resources of every life should be united in some single great object. A life unified, united, concentrated, dominated by one great purpose, becomes mighty, while a life with a thousand diverging purposes must necessarily be weak. ---------Get the best of our podcast in book form by visiting: https://inspirationallifelessons.comGet our entire 700+ podcast archive, with full transcripts and without ads by visiting: https://livinghour.org/patron.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/inspirational-living/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brand

By shutting close your life in hour-tight compartments, with the mind directed intensely upon the subject in hand, you will acquire the capacity to do more and more.
