Podcast Excerpt: The study of Divine wisdom will either make us more adaptable to situations and more friendly in our relations with others (because we discover the unity of our humanity), or else it will fail in its purpose for a time and cause us to be introverts, given to abnormal introspection, inclined to hold ourselves apart from the world about us.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: I simply wish to point out a path in which the wayfaring soul, though a fool, cannot err. Not a system to be worked out painfully, only to be discarded; not a formal scheme; simply a habit as easy or as hard to adopt as any other habit, good or bad. For life IS a habit: a succession of actions that become more or less automatic.

This great truth, which lies at the basis of all actions, is the keystone of the teaching of .....

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: There is little hope for the person who feels satisfied with themselves, who does not know, “the noble discontent that stirs the acorn to become an oak.”

It is our ambition to improve something somewhere every day, to get a little further on and a little higher up than we were the day before — an insatiable passion for bettering things all along the line — that is the secret of human progress.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Very few people have ever been taught how to talk well, how to express themselves effectively. Yet every person would greatly profit by a good course of instruction in public speaking — for as Elbert Hubbard once said: “Truth badly spoken dies and dries and blows away, while a lie well launched sometimes lives for ages."

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Never fear failure.To fear it is to invite it. Continually assert your own real mastery over any habit you wish to change. The belief in your own powers will correspondingly lessen your faith in the strength of the habit you are overcoming.

There is but one sure and general cure for all bad habits: that is ...

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Are you scared of your own best ideas? One of the things that often prevents us from seizing the NOW is a certain timidity in the face of our own inspiration. We're often a little bit afraid of our ideas when they first occur to us. They may seem novel or farfetched. There's no doubt about it: It does take a certain boldness to step out on an untested idea. Yet it's exactly this kind of boldness that often produces the most spectacular results.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: "It's the last straw that breaks the camel's back," but each straw helps. Your success may seem a long way off, but each step forward (and none backward) will help to bring you nearer. Your goal, whatever your ambition, may seem as a giant mountain, to the top of which seems as an endless climb; but when it is reached how sweet is the rest, and what a pleasure it is to look back over the long, winding road up the steep incline!

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: It is better to have eyes for beauty — than for blemish. It is better to be able to see the roses — than the thorns. It is better to have learned to look for things to commend in others — than for things to condemn. Of course other people have faults, and we are not blind. But then we have faults of our own, and this should make us charitable.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: It is wise to know what comes first, and what to do first. To begin anything in the middle or at the end is to make a muddle of it. The athlete who begins by breaking the tape would not receive the prize. They must begin by facing the starter and toeing the mark — and even then a good start is important if they are to win.

The first things in a sound life (and therefore in a truly happy and successful life) are right principles....

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Every person is the pilot on their ship down the River of Time. You must steer carefully and be at the wheel constantly. Indecision, impatience, cowardice means loss of control, and then you are on the rocks. Perfect balance, careful judgment, and an understanding of values gives one poise and enables the voyage to be made without mishap. Training for poise is one of the great businesses of life.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: "Imagination rules the world,” said Napoleon, and it is true that this quality of mind has been a notable factor in the success of all great men and women. Each one of us possesses the quality in some degree, and it should be cultivated.

A common understanding of imagination implies its relation to something fanciful, unreal, impossible — as in the case of the imagination of a novelist. But all imagination is based on actualities. Exaggerated imaginations often produce improbabilities, but they are never wholly lacking in possibilities.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: If you have work to do — as I trust you to — do your work in the right spirit. That is, do it gladly, recognizing work for what it really is, one of the greatest blessings of existence.

Often we hear people say, "I wish I did not have to work at all." If they had their wish, they soon would regret it. For they would discover, as thousands have done, that entirely to abstain from work means mental and physical ill-health. People must work if they would keep well.

Listen to episode 820 of the Inspirational Living podcast: The 4 Ways to Power Your Ambition. Edited and adapted from Stepping Stones to Success by Horace D. Hitchcock.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: The world is a world of variation and change. Each stone, plant, animal, and human being is a unit in itself. But human beings (with our physical, mental, and moral qualities) are a world in ourselves, capable of mastering the things of nature in a manner that will bring us health, happiness, and contentment.

How can you cultivate your ambition? The same way you would cultivate a plant — by giving it nourishment and forcing it to grow up as destined by its own nature. The methods of cultivation you can use may be outlined as follows....

Listen to episode 819 of the Inspirational Living podcast: How to Live a Larger, More Abundant Life. Edited an adapted Thinking for Results by Christian D. Larson.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: The attitude of kindness is one of the greatest states of mind. Kindness enlarges our inner awareness, thus promoting the enlargement and expression of life.

It also creates the tendency to give one's best, and there is nothing that brings forth greater life and power so quickly and completely as giving your best in all things and at all times.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: One of the finest qualities of such a person is self-control. To be able, under the most trying circumstances, to command one's self, to be always able to say to the rising passions of anger, jealousy, fear, or any emotion, "Peace, be still," is a great power.

We are in the world to make the most of ourselves, and our opportunities. And in order to do this, we should acquire as early as possible, control over ourselves.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: The golden rule, therefore, is to keep your strong qualities in front of your eyes, so to speak, and ignore your weak ones. Do not pander to these latter ones. Treat them as if they were sources of strength, too. That is what Shakespeare means when he says, "Assume a virtue if you have it not.”

Every now and then you will ask yourself how your weak faculties are improving (and if you have done your best to develop your mind and character); and you will have the satisfaction of noting an extraordinary development of strength which you never dreamed of.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: When Alexander Pope wrote the line, "Hope springs eternal in the human breast," he expressed a truth that (considered in the fullness of its suggestion) is electrifying. With the coming of the inspiring impulse of hope, we find again open to us the doors that have shut us in. We look out over a vast field of possibility.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: RICHES that are obtained under proper conditions represent not merely an accumulation of money. They develop and broaden our mental and moral forces. The love of money that is the root of all evil is the covetousness of avarice: the love of money for its own sake. When acquiring money from this motive there is no growth of larger and better power, no uplift, no rising to a wider vision.

Everything that is of value as a force is capable of benefit or harm. The force of the mind can be directed either for evil or for good. Reverie and rest can easily degenerate into laziness and dreamy longings. Or they can be directed and utilized to build upon present forces and draw to us those that are beneficial.
