Inspirational Living: Life Lessons For Success & Happiness

Listen to episode 998 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Living an Authentic Life | Originality vs. Conformity. Edited and adapted from Working with God by Gardner Hunting.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Isn't it pitiful, how we so often conform: conform to style, to custom, to mode, to trend. And if we think about it, we come upon a curious anomaly. The world is actually crying out for originality (for something new under the sun) yet it slaps at it instantly when it raises its head. No person is so unpopular as the one who begins to be unlike the rest. However, no person receives such rewards as the one who persists in it! ---------------------Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

Listen to episode 996 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Earning Your Wisdom and Happiness. Edited & adapted from a speech by David Starr Jordan.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: The greatest source of failure in life comes from this. It is easier to be almost right than to be right; to wish, than to gain. In default of gold, there is always something almost as good, and which glitters equally. In default of possession, illusion can be had, and more cheaply. It is possession only which costs. Illusion can be had on easy terms, though the final end of deception is failure and misery. ---------------------Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

Listen to episode 993 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Energy, Authenticity & Character | Mind Power. Adapted from The Positive Psychology of Success by Newton N. Riddle.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Before anything can be accomplished we must have power. It takes power to work, to do business, to enjoy, to think, to live. Mental energy backs all action. If we lack it, we cannot expect to accomplish much until we have developed the elements that supply force. Even in good health, energy is sometimes deficient, leaving one tame, inert, constitutionally tired, and averse to activity and strenuous effort. Whatever the cause of this tendency, whether hereditary or acquired, it can be overcome by proper training. ---------------------Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

Listen to episode 992 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Advice to Young Adults | Life Coach Lessons. Edited and adapted from Increasing Personal Efficiency by Russell H. Conwell.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: A life is divine when duty is a joy. The best work we ever do is the work we get pleasure from doing. And the work we are likeliest to enjoy most is the work we are best fitted to do with our talent. There is nothing in the world except marriage that we should be slower to take upon ourselves than our life-work; therefore, think much, read much, inquire much before you assume any life career.---------------------Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

Listen to episode 991 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Make Your Life Count | Motivational Speeches. Edited and adapted from “Ambition and Success” by Orison Swett Marden.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Everywhere we see men and women doing the lower, the commoner things, seemingly satisfied to do them all their lives, when they have the ability to do the higher. Many people do not start out with ambition enough to spur them to do big things. They make a large career practically impossible at the very outset, because they expect so little of themselves. They have a narrow, stingy view of life and of themselves which limits their ambition to a little, rutty, repetitive groove. If I could give you but one word of advice, it would be .....---------------------Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

Listen to episode 990 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Becoming a Creative Writer | Learning to See Again. Adapted from Becoming a Writer by Dorothea Brande.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: The genius keeps, for all their days, the vividness and intensity of interest that a sensitive child feels in its expanding world. Many of US keep this wide-eyed interest well into adolescence; but very few mature men and women are fortunate enough to preserve it in their routine lives. Most of us are only intermittently aware, even in youth, and the occasions on which adults see and feel and hear (with every sense alert) become rarer and rarer with the passage of the years. ---------------------Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

We shall also find such a life to be the path to perpetual growth and continuous joy.---------------------Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

Listen to a sample episode of Our Sunday Talks, an exclusive series for the patrons of the Inspirational Living podcast. This episode was edited and adapted from the work of Neville Goddard.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Prayer is an art and requires practice. The first requirement is a controlled imagination. Ostentation and vain repetitions are foreign to prayer. Its exercise requires tranquility and peace of mind.The ceremonies that are customarily used in prayer are mere superstitions and have been invented to give prayer an air of solemnity. Those who do practice the art of prayer are often ignorant of the laws that control it. They attribute the results obtained to the ceremonies and mistake the letter for the spirit.---------------------Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

Listen to episode 988 of the Inspirational Living podcast: How to Have Success at Any Age. Edited and adapted from “Self-Control: It’s Kingship & Majesty” by William George Jordan.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: If we honestly seek to live our best at all times, that determination is visible in every moment of our living, and no trifle in our lives can be too insignificant to reflect this principle of living. The sun illuminates a fallen leaf by the roadside as impartially as a towering mountain peak in the Alps. Every drop of water in the ocean is an epitome of the chemistry of the whole ocean; every drop is subject to precisely the same laws as dominate the united infinity of billions of drops that make that miracle of Nature we call the Sea. ---------------------Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

Listen to episode 987 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Building Greatness from Little Things. Edited and adapted from The Royal Path of Life by T.L. Haines & L.W. Yaggy.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: The little things in life are not to be dismissed. Every day is a little life; and our whole life is but a day repeated. Those who dare lose a day, are dangerously profligate; those who dare misspend a day, are desperate. Springs are little things, but they are sources of large streams. Nails and pegs are little things, but they hold parts of large buildings together. Zeros and ones are little things, but without them we would have no computers. A word, a look, a frown, all are little things, but powerful for good or evil. -----------Transform your life in 30 days with our MAJESTY meditation program: https://livinghour.org/majesty.

Listen to episode 986 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Getting Started with a Purpose Driven Life. Edited and adapted from “On the Threshold” by Theodore Thornton Munger.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Individuals may be divided in many ways, but there is no clearer cut division than between those who have a purpose and those who are without one. It is the character of the purpose that at last determines the character of the person — for a purpose may be good or bad, high or low. It is the strength and definiteness of the purpose that determines the measure of success. -----------Transform your life in 30 days with our MAJESTY meditation program: https://livinghour.org/majesty.

Listen to episode 985 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Motivation to Make Your Life Extraordinary. Adapted from Concentration: The Road To Success by Henry Harrison Brown.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Remember to always mind your own business. Any argument or antagonism, is minding another person’s business. All persons have an equal right as you to think and act as prompted from within. In giving them this right in your thought, you cannot resist anything they do. You will think and act your thought freely. And since Goodness, Truth, and Love, are realities and are all, when you affirm these you will be powerful. -----------Transform your life in 30 days with our MAJESTY meditation program: https://livinghour.org/majesty.

Listen to episode 985 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Cultivating the Power of Imagination. Edited and adapted from Secrets of Mental Supremacy by W. R. C. LATSON, published in 1913.Inspirational Podcast Transcript:The imagination requires more than mere perception. The things perceived must be remembered. A thing that we have forgotten — lost out of the conscious mind — cannot be used as material for an act of imagination. The things perceived and remembered must be grouped and associated into clusters; so that when we wish to imagine a certain picture, we will have a vast amount of material in our mind from which to select materials for that picture. In cultivating the power of imagination, then, we must begin by educating perception, memory, and association — for (and here is my definition of imagination) imagination is merely a combination of perception, memory, and association with initiative: with will. -----------Transform your life in 30 days with our MAJESTY meditation program: https://livinghou

Listen to episode 984 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Conquering Anxiety, and Worry. Adapted from the book Pushing to the Front by Orison Swett Marden.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: The monster of worry dogs us from the cradle to the grave. There is no occasion so sacred but it is there. Unbidden it comes to the wedding and the funeral alike. It is at every reception, every banquet; it occupies a seat at every table. No human mind can estimate the havoc and ruin wrought by worry. It has ever forced genius to do the work of mediocrity; it has caused more failures, more broken hearts, more blasted hopes, than any other one cause since the dawn of the world. -----------Transform your life in 30 days with our MAJESTY meditation program: https://livinghour.org/majesty.

Listen to a sample episode of Our Sunday Talks, an exclusive series for the patrons of the Inspirational Living podcast. This episode was edited and adapted from The Kybalion: Hermetic Philosophy, published in 1908.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: What the mystics know as "the Law of Paradox" is an aspect of the Principle of Polarity. Mystical writings are filled with references to Paradox in the consideration of the problems of Life and Being. Hermetic teachers are constantly warning their students against the error of omitting the (quote) "other side" of any question.---------------------Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

Listen to episode 983 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Gaining the Youthful Edge (At Any Age). Edited and Adapted from Turn Back the Years by Harry J. Gardener.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Spontaneity is one of the prime points in being youthful. The minute you settle permanently into the same easy chair to watch the same TV show, wearing the same pajamas and pair of slippers, the same lamp over your shoulder, from that moment on you are doomed to old age just as surely as if all your friends had uttered the sentence themselves and as if Time were your executioner.---------------------Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.
