Listen to episode 923 of the Inspirational Living Podcast: Overcome Stagnation & Start Growing | Self-Development. Edited and adapted from Growth in Silence, the Undertone of Life by Susanna Cocroft.
Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: It is easy to be content, to remain at a standstill, to make no effort to reach out beyond an easy environment. But it is stagnation. The soul must be the master; and circumstances its stepping stones.
No judgment, no decision, no attitude toward life can be final....

Listen to episode 921 of the Inspirational Living Podcast: The Growing Power of Nature Within You. Edited and adapted from The Power of Repose by Annie Payson Call.
Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Within all of us there is an exquisite sense of growing power that comes from Nature. In studying Nature, we not only realize the strength that comes from following her lead, but we discover her within ourselves gently moving us onward.
We all believe that we look to Nature; but it is surprising how often we are mistaken. We all would profit much if we....

Listen to a sample episode of Our Sunday Talks, an exclusive series for the patrons of the Inspirational Living podcast. This episode is edited and adapted from Through the Gates of Good by James Allen, published in 1903.
Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: The Gospel of Jesus is a Gospel of living and doing. If it were not this, it would not voice the Eternal Truth. There is one characteristic in the teachings of all Great Souls, and that is that they bring to light (and appeal directly to) the simple facts and truths of the soul and of life.
Listen to episode 920 of the Inspirational Living podcast: The Power of Think | Motivational Podcasts. Edited and adapted from Keys to Success by B.C. Forbes.
Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Thought is the parent of progress. Thought creates all. Everything springs from thought. Human beings are distinguished from other animals by this one power: the power of thought. The immortals of this world are they who thought deeper or more brilliantly than their fellow citizens.

Listen to episode 919 of the Inspirational Living Podcast: Getting Over Your Fear of Death. Edited and adapted from Growth in Silence, the Undertone of Life by Susanna Cocroft.
Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: The fear of death is one of the greatest restraints to life, to growth. We do not realize how our lives are hampered by fear of it. The opposite is true when we realize that there is no death.
If the spirits linger near, it is pleasant to feel that they are ever helping and impressing for good those whose lives were knitted to theirs in the past. They may or may not commune with us (so that we can see or hear them with our physical senses), but have we not all, in some receptive mood, when lifted above the petty cares of the day, felt a sweet influence pervading the very air?

Listen to a sample episode of Our Sunday Talks, an exclusive series for the patrons of the Inspirational Living podcast. This episode is edited and adapted from What All the World is a-Seeking by Ralph Waldo Trine, published in 1920.
Podcast Excerpt: I often talk about the principle of love and service, and how this principle should be the foundation of your personality. In turn, I often hear someone say, “But love and service really doesn’t come easily for me. What should I do?”
My reply is this: Forget self, get out of it for a little while, and, as it comes your way, do something for someone, some kind service, some loving favor; it makes no difference how small it may appear. But a kind look or word to one weary with care, a helping hand or little lift to one discouraged, may just change their life or their destiny.

Listen to episode 918 of the Inspirational Living podcast: The Magic Door to a Wonderful Life. Edited and adapted from The Open Door by Hugh Black.
Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: We need more non-conformists, more people ready to protest, because their eyes have seen a nobler vision. It would be a poor thing to have youth prudent with the selfish calculating prudence of worldly wisdom. Life stretches out at the feet of youth to be made what it will. It can be as rich and beautiful as youth likes to have it — for that is the Magic Door that ushers to the very land of our dreams....

Listen to episode 917 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Overcoming Even Insurmountable Difficulties. Edited and adapted from How to Get On in the World by Major A.R. Calhoun.
Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Courage, combined with energy and perseverance, will overcome difficulties apparently insurmountable. It gives force and impulse to effort and does not permit it to retreat. Tyndall said of Faraday, that (quote) "in his warm moments he formed a resolution, and in his cool ones he made that resolution good."

Listen to a sample episode of Our Sunday Talks, an exclusive series for the patrons of the Inspirational Living podcast.This episode is edited and adapted from Studies in Thought World by Henry Wood, published in 1896.
Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Poverty is a condition of soul. This is even true on the material plane. The millionaire who feels poor is poor, and nothing but a mental revolution can make them otherwise. On the other hand, the humblest task, and the simplest gift, may be transmuted into a pleasure and privilege.
The world is full of poor people who are rich, but they are utterly unaware of it. There are boundless deposits of virtue and love, goodness and beauty, health and happiness, waiting to be withdrawn. But ....
Listen to episode 916 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Driving Your Ambition to Success. Edited and adapted from How to Develop Your Personality by Clare Tree Major.
Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Ambition is desire, the desire for self-expression along the line of least resistance. Desire is a thing to be cultivated. Feed it with your imagination. But do not desire to have things. Greed and envy, and a host of other uglinesses, owe their birth to the desire to have. Desire to BE, and the things will come of themselves.
To be a great success, a master in your chosen business or profession....
