Listen to episode 885 of the Inspirational Living podcast: How to Live Up to Your Full Potential. Edited and adapted from Be Good to Yourself by Orison Swett Marden.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: It is a rare thing to find a person who is really masterful in their personality, masterful in what they undertake; who approaches their task with the assurance of a conqueror; who is able to grapple vigorously with their life problems; who always keeps themselves in condition to do their best and biggest thing easily, without strain; who seizes with the grip of a master the precious opportunities which come to them.

In order to keep yourself at top condition, to obtain complete mastery of all your powers and possibilities, you must ....

Listen to a sample episode Our Sunday Talks, edited and adapted from Creative Mind and Success, by Ernest S. Holmes, published in 1923.

Podcast Excerpt:ALL outer success first takes place within ourselves. Creation is eternally flowing through all things. Reality is always working from that inner pattern. We do not struggle with conditions, we use principles which create conditions. What we can mentally encompass we can accomplish, no matter how hard it may seem from the outside.

All external things are but the outer rim of inner thought activity. You can easily prove this for yourself. If you are in business, say, running an ice cream stand, and are not doing good business, look carefully into...

Listen to episode 884 of the Inspirational Living Podcast: How to Master Your Fate. Edited and adapted from Mastery of Fate by Christian D. Larson.

Motivational Podcast Excerpt: What you are, and what you do, determines in what conditions, circumstances, and environments you shall be placed. And since you can change yourself and your actions, you can determine what your fate is to be.

To change yourself, you must change your thought, because you are as you think; and to change your actions, you must change the purpose of your life, because every action is consciously or unconsciously inspired by the purpose you hold in view.

Listen to a sample episode Our Sunday Talks, edited and adapted from Man Limitless by Floyd B. Wilson, published in 1905.

Podcast Excerpt:Among all people and cultures, you will find that those who are bewailing their fate, or as they put it, the way the world has treated them, feel in their hearts they have not received, and are not receiving, the just rewards for their toil and effort.

It seems that many become professional growlers because they compare their work with the work of others and their rewards with the rewards of others, and feel themselves overshadowed. Were these people to look back over their lives and trace again....

Listen to episode 882 of the Inspirational Living Podcast: Understanding What Success Really Is. Edited and adapted from Successward by Edward W. Bok.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: In this age of big things, we are inclined to regard success as synonymous only with the higher walks of life, with great achievements. Success (in the minds of some people) is something which is only given for the fortunate to achieve — while others think that if we cannot do something that sets people talking or wondering about us (if our heads do not tower above those of our fellow beings), our lives, if not altogether negative, are still not successful.

Listen to episode 881 of the Inspirational Living Podcast: Success Never Comes Without This. Edited and adapted from Successward by Edward W. Bok.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Every woman and man in this world is created differently. No two are alike. Therefore, the nature, the thoughts, the character, and the capacity of one person is utterly unlike that of another. What one person can understand, another cannot. The success of one individual indicates nothing to a second person. What one is capable of doing is beyond the power of another. Hence it is important that, first of all, you should.....
