Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Many people give up their work if they are told they can't succeed. Confront them with a difficulty and they seek the path of least resistance. It is the doing of things by half that is the ruination of millions. The world is crowded with people who don't do all they can. Half-hearted success is whole-hearted failure. Half-hearted work gives us half-hearted people who can neither live half a life nor make half a success.

The individual who puts only half their energy into their work finds that it is the other half that counts. The one who knows only half the things about their business finds that all the profits are in the other half. The one who only half tries (no matter what they are doing), also finds, when it is too late, that everything worthwhile is in the other half.

A Thanksgiving of Gratitude, Hope, Charity & Joy Nov 28, 2024

Show notes

Listen to episode 960 of the Inspirational Living podcast: A Thanksgiving of Gratitude, Hope, Charity and Joy. Edited and adapted from The Royal Path of Life by T.L. Haines & L.W. Yaggy.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Nothing tenders the heart, and opens the gushing fountain of love, more than the exercise of gratitude. Like the showers of spring that cause flowers to rise from seeds that have long lain dormant, tears of gratitude awaken pleasurable sensations unknown to those who have never been forced from the sunshine of prosperity into the cold shade of adversity — where no warmth is felt but that of kindness; no light enjoyed but that of charity.

Self-Control: The Key to Success & Achievement Nov 26, 2024

Show notes

Listen to episode 959 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Self-Control: The Key to Success & Achievement. Edited and adapted from The Kingship of Self-Control by William George Jordan.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Every person has two creators — their God and themselves. Our first creator furnishes us with the raw material of our lives and the laws in conformity with which we can make that life what we will. The second creator — ourselves — has marvelous powers we rarely realize. It is what we make of ourselves that counts.

The Adventure of the Last Open Door Nov 25, 2024

Show notes

Listen to a sample episode of Our Sunday Talks, an exclusive series for the patrons of the Inspirational Living podcast. This episode is edited and adapted from The Open Door by Hugh Black, published in 1914.

Podcast Excerpt: Death is the greatest adventure in life, and to have faced it and settled how it must be met is the largest part of our total attitude. A good deal of our neglect of the subject in ordinary life is really due to the distaste and fear we have for it. And because of this, life is really weakened and maimed.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: There is a higher truth. There is a realm of reality which is lifted above the things perceived by our senses and the experiences of human life. There is a joy and light and music in the waters, which do not rise within the city but come from the eternal hills beyond. It is that kind of everlasting joy which I would like to talk about today...

Building the Endurance to Succeed Nov 19, 2024

Show notes

Listen to episode 957 of the Inspirational Living Podcast: Building the Endurance to Succeed. Edited and adapted from Making the Grade by C.V. Mosby.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Success in life depends largely on endurance. And endurance is dependent upon a sound body and a determined will. There are many flabby wills housed in a physically sound body. When this happens, there is little endurance; and, as a consequence, there is not much hill climbing for the individual.

The Great Lesson of Seeing Possibilities Nov 13, 2024

Show notes

Listen to episode 956 of the Inspirational Living podcast: The Great Lesson of Seeing Possibilities. Edited and adapted from Leadership by George H. Knox.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: One great lesson we should all learn is to see possibilities — in ourselves and in others. It is a great satisfaction to see other people climb through our assistance. It is better to cultivate the attitude of a helper than of a person who has to be helped. Better to be a burst of sunshine than a sponge.

How Does One Conquer Life? | Success Podcasts Nov 12, 2024

Show notes

Listen to episode 955 of the Inspirational Living podcast: How Does One Conquer Life? Edited and adapted from Gaining the Round Above by Gustavus S. Kimball.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: A more modern definition says that the ideal life, the life of success, is the well-rounded life with broad views, broad culture, broad sympathies, and broad purposes for good. True success by this measure means putting our best muscle, brain, and heart into our work — though the returns may not come tomorrow, next month, or next year. However, rest assured ....

Why We Must Take the Hard Road Nov 10, 2024

Show notes

Listen to a sample episode of Our Sunday Talks, an exclusive series for the patrons of the Inspirational Living podcast. This episode is edited and adapted from Volume IV of Harper's magazine, published in 1852.

Podcast Excerpt: There is an aim which all Nature seeks. The flower that opens from the bud (the light that breaks the cloud into a thousand forms of beauty) is calmly striving to assume the perfect glory of its power. And the child, whose proud laugh heralds the mastery of a new lesson, unconsciously develops the same life-impulse, so as to prove the power it has felt as its own.

This is the real goal of life shining dimly from afar — for our fullest power has never yet been attained. It is a treasure which must be sought (its extent and distance being unknown).

Your Fate is in Your Hands | Success Podcasts Nov 07, 2024

Show notes

Listen to episode 954 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Your Fate is in Your Hands. Adapted from the book Within You is the Power by Henry Thomas Hamblin.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: There come times in person's life when they move heaven and earth (figuratively speaking); pray until they can pray no more; sacrifice, perhaps, their money, their health, their prospects, and do everything that is in their power, in a vain attempt to stave off a threatened disaster.

But, in spite of all their efforts, in spite of their cries to a pitiless heaven, the relentless march of fate cannot be stayed. It moves forward like a huge juggernaut and crushes their hopes, their dearest idols, their very life itself (or all that then makes their life worth living) — and leaves them desolate.

So, what then can be done? ........
