    Recovering Your Happiness & Joy

    Recovering Your Happiness & Joy

    Listen to episode 895 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Recovering Your Happiness & Joy. Edited and adapted from The Joy that No Man Taketh from You by Lilian Whiting.
    Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: It is true that many troubles are inevitable. They are a component part of life. Death is the universal human experience. Illness is largely so (in slight or serious degree). Misfortunes are, practically, universal, in some form or other. There can be no woman or man who is so great, or so good, or so distinguished, or so rich, or so fortunately placed in this world, who is not liable to almost any kind of misfortune.

    Don't Be Easily Offended | Sunday Talks

    Don't Be Easily Offended | Sunday Talks

    Listen to a sample episode Our Sunday Talks, edited and adapted from New Thought Common Sense and What Life Means to Me by Ella Wheeler Wilcox, published in 1908.
    Podcast Excerpt: A MOST beautiful calendar opens with the lines: "I'll not easily offend, Nor be easily offended; What's amiss I'll try to mend, And endure what can't be mended."
    One could hardly start the day with a better resolution than what is contained in those lines. To not easily offend is to be continually considerate. We should all strive to think before speaking; to restrain the careless word and the useless criticism; to forego the pleasure of a laugh when it would fall as ridicule on sensitive ears, and to avoid the little sins of omission which mar friendship: the unanswered letter, the unpaid call, the unspoken word of approval or congratulation for achievements, and the unoffered word of sympathy for trouble or loss.

    Evidence of the Spiritual Life | Uplifting Podcasts

    Listen to episode 894 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Evidence of the Spiritual Life | Uplifting Podcast. Edited and adapted from A New Philosophy of Life by John Herman Randall.
    Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: The first question to be faced frankly, and if possible, honestly answered, is this: “Is there a normal spiritual life possible to all people — to be lived not in some distant heaven, but here and now in this present world? And if so, of what does it consist, and how is it to be attained?"
    Let’s think briefly of the deeper meaning of life as we know it, and consider its development. The most wonderful, and altogether most significant thing to be said about life is this: ....

    Start Living the Inspiring Life Meant for You

    Start Living the Inspiring Life Meant for You

    Listen to episode 893 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Start Living the Inspiring Life Meant for You. Edited and adapted from A New Philosophy of Life by John Herman Randall.
    Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: It’s been said that character is practically fixed for most people when they reach the age of 25. I suspect this is true — for how many of us rigorously and systematically take ourselves in hand every day, and work on overcoming our imperfections, our weaknesses?
    Instead, we often excuse and attempt to justify ourselves, saying things like, "I can’t help it. It’s my temperament," or "My parents are the same way," or, "I am what I am." And, then, we go on spending our time in search of wealth or happiness, discharging more or less faithfully the duties of daily life, while spending little effort each day on eradicating our weaknesses and bettering ourselves.

    The Secret to Reforming Anything | Our Sunday Talks

    The Secret to Reforming Anything | Our Sunday Talks

    Listen to a sample episode Our Sunday Talks, edited and adapted from Culture and Reform by Anna Robertson Brown, published in 1896.
    Podcast Excerpt: In this world of ours, there is often talk about reform. There are lots of things in need of reform: the government, education, the media, pretty much all of our institutions. But such talk of reform always leads us back to the individual. That is why I say, to carry it through, reform must be adequate to deal with the mysteries and powers of life — for out of the mystery were we born, and into the mystery do we return. And everything in between is a mystery, as well!

    How to Avoid Certain Failure | Success Podcasts

    How to Avoid Certain Failure | Success Podcasts

    Listen to episode 892 of the Inspirational Living podcast: How to Avoid Certain Failure | Success Podcasts. Edited and adapted from Fundamentals of Success by Hiram Abiff Boaz.
    Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: No normal person wants to fail. Failure takes the sparkle from the eye, the color from the cheek, the edge from the intellect, and the nerve from the arm. The sense of failure depresses and dejects. It takes the sunshine out of life and brings the shadow. It takes joy from the heart, and spreads sorrow and gloom. To fail utterly robs life of all satisfaction and contentment, and fills it with misery and disappointment.
    And yet many do fail...
