Listen to episode 1165 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Overcoming Our Disabilities. Edited and adapted from The Book of Courage by William James Dawson.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Nothing in the long story of human endeavor is more wonderful than the complete conquest of physical disability made by great spirits. It seems probable that Alexander, Caesar, and Napoleon — each a world-conqueror — were what we should now call epileptics. William of Orange was racked by asthma, and General Wolfe, the heroic conqueror of Quebec, was of a frail and ailing constitution. Beethoven was stone deaf. And Parkman, the most picturesque of American historians, could only read for an hour a day.In all such cases, the restless tenant of the body was visibly at work — visibly and mightily. Deafness, blindness, sickness — all these daunting deprivations have been overcome, treated as though they were not, under the command of a firm and dauntless spirit — a divine power of will. ---------------------                                 Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

We all succumb too easily to the temptation to find a routine which allows us to get our day’s tasks done with a minimum of effort and conscious attention — a fact which might have no unfortunate effects at all if we used the time we save by our routines to a good purpose.---------------------                                 Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

If I give to anybody service of a kind that they want, I shall get back the benefit myself. If I give more service, I shall get more benefit. If I give a great deal more, I shall get a great deal more. I shall get back more than I give. If I give more to my employer than they expect of me, they will give me a raise, and on no other condition. What is more, their giving me a raise does not depend on my employer’s fair-mindedness. They have to give it to me or lose me, because if they do not appreciate me, somebody else will.But this is only part of it. If I give help to the co-worker whose desk is next to mine, it will come back to me multiplied, even if they are apparently a rival. What I give to them, I give to the firm, and the firm will value it, because it is teamwork in the organization that the firm primarily wants, not brilliant individual performance.---------------------                                 Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

Listen to episode 1163 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Success Principles: Integrity, Laughter &amp; Love. Edited and adapted from How Success is Won by Bernarr Macfadden.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Life’s greatest hurdles are encountered in our struggle for success. Though there are a few general principles that can be used as a guide, no person can tell another exactly how to succeed. Each one must work out their own salvation in this regard. The greatest successes are achieved by bringing out individual capacity or talents. Human beings who simply work by rule, who can only transmit that which has been impressed upon them by others, can never attain more than ordinary success. It is by developing one’s personality, by bringing out your individual characteristics, that superior abilities are attainable. ---------------------                                 Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

Listen to episode 1161 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Autosuggestion &amp; Self-Mastery. Adapted from the book Self-Mastery Through Conscious Autosuggestion by Emile Coué.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: In order to understand properly the phenomena of suggestion, or to speak more correctly of autosuggestion, it is necessary to know that two absolutely distinct selves exist within us. Both are intelligent, but while one is conscious, the other is unconscious. For this reason the existence of the latter generally escapes notice. It is however easy to prove its existence if one merely takes the trouble to examine certain phenomena and to reflect a few moments upon them. Let us take for instance the following examples:---------------------                                 Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

Can you look at the little circumstances of the day and see all things in their right proportion? The word &#34;perspective&#34; is defined as (quote) &#34;the interrelation of parts in a subject being viewed; the aspect of an object from a particular standpoint.&#34; We gain the right perspective when we reach that point of view in which we see all things in their true proportion. With this point of view, we do not exaggerate the importance of insignificant matters; we do not see persons and things out of proportion in their relation to ourselves. ---------------------                                 Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

Edited and adapted from “Does the Soul Exist After Death?” by Swami Abhedananda.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: One of the most poetical of the Upanishads begins with this inquiry: &#34;There is this doubt: when a person dies, some say that they are gone forever, that they do not exist, while others hold that they still live; which of these is true?&#34; Various answers have been given to this question. Metaphysics, philosophy, science, and religion have tried to solve this problem. At the same time, attempts also have been made to suppress this question and prevent inquiry as to whether or not we exist after death. Hundreds of thinkers have brought forward all sorts of arguments to do away with questions bearing upon this momentous subject. ---------------------                                 Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

Thereupon he left the mayor to serve the duke, until he found that the latter had to obey one greater than any duke, the emperor. Then he transferred his allegiance to the emperor, whom he served until one day he heard the emperor say that he was afraid of the devil.&#34;What! you afraid of the devil!&#34; cried the giant. &#34;Is the emperor afraid of anything? Is there anyone stronger than the emperor? If so, I will serve him.&#34;Leaving the emperor, he hunted for the devil, whom he found and served. But he soon learned that the devil was afraid of someone more powerful than himself, the Christ.---------------------                                 Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

Listen to episode 1157 of the Inspirational Living podcast: The Benefits of Growing Older. Edited and adapted from Essays of an Optimist by John William Kaye.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: One of the great advantages of age is that we are not wont to disturb ourselves by doing things that we do not like, simply for the look of the thing. There is absolute misery in pretentiousness of all kinds, and youth is infinitely more pretentious than age. There are some people who never outlive their vanity; but, as a general rule, it may be maintained that the longer we live, the less we care what others think of us, and the less we strive after effect. ---------------------                                 Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

Listen to episode 1156 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Tao Te Ching. Edited and adapted from Dwight Goddard’s translation of the Lao Tzu’s classic book Tao Te Ching.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: The Tao that can be understood cannot be the primal, or cosmic, Tao, just as an idea that can be expressed in words cannot be the infinite idea.And yet this ineffable Tao is the source of all spirit and matter, and being expressed is the mother of all created things.Therefore not to desire the things of sense is to know the freedom of spirituality; and to desire is to learn the limitation of matter. These two things, spirit and matter, so different in nature, have the same origin. This unity of origin is the mystery of mysteries, and it is the gateway to spirituality.---------------------                                 Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

You will find, too, that there are two classes of people. There is one class that is schooling itself, and constantly training itself, to look upon the dark side of life; and there is another class, made up of people who are, consciously or unconsciously, constantly training themselves to look upon the bright side of life.---------------------                                 Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

There is ever all about you something that calls to your soul, and invites you, as the poet says, to “Come out of your cage, Come out of your cage, And take your soul on a pilgrimage.” It is the call of the Upper Road. The call of the Upper Road is the call of God. He speaks to us through all that He has created. There is no place where God’s voice may not be heard.---------------------                                 Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

Listen to episode 1152 of the Inspirational Living podcast: How to Become a Well Rounded Person. Edited and adapted from Essays on Work and Culture by Hamilton Wright Mabie.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: A person of original power can never be confined within the limits of a single field of interest, nor can they ever be content to use the skills of a single occupation. They cannot pour their whole force into one channel; there is always a reserve of power beyond the demands of the work which they have in hand at the moment. If you wish to become a person of such power, remember this. Wherever you may find your place and whatever work may come to your hand, you must always be aware of the larger movement of life which encloses your special task. You must have the consciousness of that central power from which all activities are inadequate manifestations.  ---------------------                                 Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

Listen to episode 1151 of the Inspirational Living podcast: What is Your Ambition? Edited and adapted from Personal Efficiency by James Samuel Knox.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: The tragedy of life is to be found in the young individual who drifts aimlessly out into life&#39;s elements, only to be destroyed by the very forces which he or she, by divine right, should harness, master, and utilize in advancing them on their course. A ship that is going in the wrong direction can be turned because it is guided by a driving force. But you can do nothing with a ship that is drifting. It has no driving force. It is at the mercy of the elements. You can convert a man or woman who has a mistaken purpose. You can show them the error of their ways. But you can do little with the lazy and indolent who are drifting through life without purpose, and therefore without hope, without courage, and without enthusiasm. ---------------------                                 Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.
