Inspirational Living: Life Lessons for Success & Happiness

Listen to episode 853 of the Inspirational Living podcast: How to Be Truly Free & Happy. Edited and adapted from Youth and Opportunity by Thomas Tapper.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: When our tongues are tied we cannot speak; when our hands are tied we cannot labor; when our feet are tied we cannot travel. If we lived under a tyrant who, with little warning, tied our tongue, hands, and feet, and made us helpless, we should rebel and fight for freedom.

Inspirational Podcast Transcript: Remember that it is OPPORTUNITY that makes you and your fortune, provided you have learned how to take advantage of the opportunity.

Listen to episode 849 of the Inspirational Living podcast: How to Build a Real Heroic Life | Motivational Podcasts. Edited and adapted from Work by Hugh Black.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Life, after all, is largely a matter of detail. It is filled up to all of us with its routine of small duties and usual tasks and trivial acts. An hour is made up of moments; a day is made up of hours; life is made up of days. The number of our days is the extent of our life; and the character of our days is the character of our life.

Listen to episode 848 of the Inspirational Living podcast: How Your Thoughts Create Your Life. Edited and adapted from “The Message of New Thought” by Abel Allen.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Thoughts of health, thoughts of joy, thoughts of kindness, bring joy and health to the one who entertains them and sends them forth. If we think ourselves inherently bad, we shall reap the fruits of that thought.

If we conceive of ourselves as weak and unworthy, we shall develop those qualities and actualize them in our daily lives. If we recognize divine attributes as our inheritance, we shall grow into the likeness of those attributes.

Podcast Excerpt: We generally say "I have a soul” although the correct statement is "I am a soul." The cause of this mistake is found in the fact that the ordinary person is only conscious of the surface.

To them the outer person is the only real person, because they are not conscious of the deeper and more permanent principles of their being. They, therefore, think of the objective person as the true self. But when the mind begins to....

Listen to episode 847 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Living a Life of Inspiration, Happiness & Consequence. Edited and adapted from Right Living by Susan H. Wixon.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: What is it to live? Is it simply to eat, drink, and be merry? Is it to learn a little, here and there; to laugh and play; to sleep, weep, toil, and battle from day to day, and from year to year for food and shelter? Is it to bend every energy to the acquirement of wealth, fame, or position?

Life is more than that. It has larger uses. It contains greater and grander results. It holds.....

Podcast Excerpt: There belongs to every human being a higher self and a lower self — a self of the spirit which has been growing for ages, and a self of the body, which is but a thing of yesterday.

The higher self is full of prompting ideas, suggestions, and aspiration. This it receives of the Supreme Power....
