Inspirational Living: Life Lessons for Success & Happiness

Listen to episode 976 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Living Life No Regrets. Adapted from The Power of Purpose by William George Jordan.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Let us be glad of the dignity of our privilege to make mistakes, glad of the wisdom that enables us to recognize them, glad of the power that permits us to turn their light as a glowing illumination along the pathway of our future. Mistakes are the growing pains of wisdom, the assessments we pay on our stock of experience, the raw material of error to be transformed into higher living.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Life is full of beginnings. They are presented every day and every hour to every person. Most beginnings are small, and appear trivial and insignificant, but in reality they are the most important things in life.

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 College and the Higher Life by Elmer Hewitt Capen, published in 1905.

Podcast Excerpt: Let me add that the pathway of heavenly favor lies through sacrifice, especially sacrifice for the rising generation. We must never forget that "others have labored before us and we are entered into their labors." This is the way of the world. We can never partake fully, we can never even behold, nor can our minds conceive, all the fruits of our work. 

We enjoy without effort the results of the "agony and bloody sweat" of those who were faithful in their day and generation. And the only compensation we can make for it is to see that they who come after us shall receive a like token of our fidelity.

Listen to episode 974 of the Inspirational Living podcast: The Power of the Generous Nature. Edited and adapted from Our Sunday Talks by James J. Owen.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: One source of almost unlimited trouble in this world is in not knowing when we are well off. Our happiness depends too much on what we suppose others may think of us, and too little on what we really think of ourselves. We carry the spirit of rivalry and emulation to an extreme. In our efforts to excel our neighbors, we often overdo it and make ourselves miserable.

Listen to episode 973 of the Inspirational Living podcast: The Key to Happiness Every Day. Edited and adapted from Just Be Glad by Christian D. Larson.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: The real truth is that this world is nothing less than a limitless sea of happiness, the vastness and glory of which we are just beginning to know. And life itself is a song, while time is one eternal symphony. To be in tune with life, therefore, and to be in harmony with the endless music of time, we must of necessity be glad. But after we have learned to be glad, under every circumstance, it is no longer a necessity. It is a privilege, and has become a part of our active, living, thinking self.

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 Creative Mind, by Ernest S. Holmes, published in 1923.

Podcast Excerpt: Be expectant. Expect the best to happen. Don't sit around waiting for trouble — have absolutely nothing to do with it. It is no part of the divine plan. It is an illusion of the material sense. One who has learned to trust will not be surprised even when they find things coming from the most unexpected sources.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Today, I would like to talk with you about success and the industrious spirit.

Listen to episode 971 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Living a Magical Life. Adapted from the book Concentration: The Key to Constructive Thought by C. W. Kyle.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: The supreme lesson of life is that of self-realization. You are living in a world of magic. You have more power within you than that of any wizard whom you have read or dreamed about. Wake up! Learn who you are before you condemn yourself to a further life of inaction and inefficiency. To come to recognize yourself is the best elixir of life you will ever know.

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 Gnostic Gospel of Thomas, first discovered in an ancient Egyptian cave in 1945.

Podcast Excerpt: "When you make the two into one, and make the inner like the outer and the outer like the inner, and the upper like the lower, and so make the male and the female a single one so that the male won't be male nor the female female; when you make eyes in the place of an eye, a hand in the place of a hand, a foot in the place of a foot, and an image in the place of an image; then you'll enter [the kingdom]."

Listen to episode 970 of the Inspirational Living podcast: How to Create Your Ideal Life. Edited and Adapted from the book Joy Philosophy by Elizabeth Towne.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: You and I are artists. But we are prone to look too long and often at our canvas (the results of our efforts) and too little at our Ideals, which are the source of all effort and accomplishment.

Let us take special times every day for gazing upon our Ideals. The first thing in the morning, and the last thing at night, should be daily given to special gazing upon what we desire. Then several times a day, we should pause in our efforts, for a few moments’ study of the Ideal.
