Listen to episode 1075 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Inspirational Life Lessons for a Happy Life. Adapted from Adventures in Common Sense by Dr. Frank Crane.
Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Before you get up, clean out of your mind every feeling of your Rights, and see what kind of a day you will have. Don't try for more than one day, at first, for it will tax your forces. Old habits of thought will bring constant suggestions, that you are being abused, imposed upon, oppressed and devoured. Be patient. Put these ideas away. Try, just one day, to act on the theory that you have no rights at all.
Expect no gratitude when you help the poor. Look for no recognition when you accommodate a friend. Give up your seat in a crowded room. Step back and wait for others at the check-out counter. Require no attention from service staff, your children, or your spouse. Be a door-mat — it's only for one day.
