    Nobody Can Cheat You But Yourself

    Listen to a sample episode of Our Sunday Talks, an exclusive series for the patrons of the Inspirational Living podcast. This episode was Edited and adapted from Working With God by Gardner Hunting. Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: People suffer all their life long under the foolish superstition that they can be cheated. But it is as impossible for you to be cheated by anyone but yourself, as it is for a thing to be and not be at the same time. There is a third silent party to all our bargains. The nature and soul of things takes on itself the guaranty of the fulfillment of every contract, so that honest service cannot come to loss. --------------------- Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

    Breaking Conformity to Live an Authentic Life

    Listen to episode 998 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Living an Authentic Life | Originality vs. Conformity. Edited and adapted from Working with God by Gardner Hunting. Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Isn't it pitiful, how we so often conform: conform to style, to custom, to mode, to trend. And if we think about it, we come upon a curious anomaly. The world is actually crying out for originality (for something new under the sun) yet it slaps at it instantly when it raises its head. No person is so unpopular as the one who begins to be unlike the rest. However, no person receives such rewards as the one who persists in it! --------------------- Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

    Listen to episode 997 of the Inspirational Living podcast: The Great Power of Perseverance. Edited and adapted from The Royal Path of Life by T.L. Haines & L.W. Yaggy. Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: "Continual drops wear out the stone." So persevering labor gains our objectives. Perseverance is the virtue wanted — a lion-hearted purpose of victory. It is this that builds; constructs; accomplishes whatever is great, good, and valuable. --------------------- Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

    Gowing Toward the Divine | Our Sunday Talks

    Listen to a sample episode of Our Sunday Talks, an exclusive series for the patrons of the Inspirational Living podcast. This episode was edited and adapted from Every man a King by Orison Swett Marden and Ernest Holmes. Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: When the soul once tastes its native food, once feels the thrill of the infinite pulse, it no longer is content to grovel. When you realize that you are divine, when you see that you are a part of the everlasting principle which is the very essence of reality, nothing can throw you off your physical or mental balance. You are centered in the ever-lasting truth — entrenched there in infinite power from the taint of fear, or anxiety, or worry, or accident — because you are conscious that you are the principle yourself, a part of the eternal verity. --------------------- Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

    Earning Your Wisdom & Happiness

    Listen to episode 996 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Earning Your Wisdom and Happiness. Edited & adapted from a speech by David Starr Jordan. Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: The greatest source of failure in life comes from this. It is easier to be almost right than to be right; to wish, than to gain. In default of gold, there is always something almost as good, and which glitters equally. In default of possession, illusion can be had, and more cheaply. It is possession only which costs. Illusion can be had on easy terms, though the final end of deception is failure and misery. --------------------- Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

    Listen to episode 995 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Self-Reliance: The Key to Successful Living. Edited and adapted from The Keys to Success by B.C. Forbes. Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Without self-reliance no one can succeed in the largest way. Self-reliance breeds courage, faith, determination, never-say-dieness. Self-reliance inspires a person to do the best that is in them. Without self-reliance, the difficulties that are common to forging ahead cannot be fought and overmatched. --------------------- Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

    The Evolution of Your Spirit | Our Sunday Talks

    Listen to a sample episode of Our Sunday Talks, an exclusive series for the patrons of the Inspirational Living podcast. This episode was edited and adapted from Vedanta Philosophy: Five Lectures on Reincarnation by Swami Abhedananda, published in 1896. Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Our spiritual nature expresses itself in various ways, but on a higher plane. Love of truth, mastery over passion, control of the senses, disinterested self-sacrifice, mercy and kindness to all creatures, desire to help the distressed, forgiveness, faith in a Supreme Being and devotion; all these are the expressions of that higher moral and spiritual nature.  Such qualities cannot be explained as developed from animal nature by means of the struggle for material existence. For they are not to be found in lower animals, although the struggle for existence is there. The moral and spiritual nature of human beings thus cannot be traced as the outgrowth or gradual development of the animal nature. --------------------- Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.
