The Emotional Forces that Drive Success

Tuesday, June 23, 2026 • Duration 16:14

Listen to episode 1132 of the Inspirational Living podcast: The Emotional Forces that Drive Success. Edited and adapted from How to Develop Your Will Power by Clare Tree Major.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Self-control is emotional control. Like all forces inherent in human nature, the emotional forces work equally thoroughly in either direction, as builders or as destroyers. You are, whether you like it or not, dealing with forces, with laws, with energy, which must expend themselves, must carry out their predestined mission — forces as blind and as inevitable as the forces of electricity or the laws of gravitation.

You must either be hurled to destruction by them, or you must control and use them. You cannot escape them. They are part of your nature. The more vital and intense your nature, the greater your possibilities of power. The fact that you are awake enough to be interested in self-development is sufficient proof of your own possibility of superseding in development the masses which make up the great average class of humanity.

How to Succeed in the Game of Life

Thursday, June 18, 2026 • Duration 13:10

Listen to episode 1131 of the Inspirational Living podcast: How to Succeed in the Game of Life. Adapted from “If I Were Twenty-One” by Dr. Frank Crane.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt:Never forget that anyone can be happy if they choose to be. Happiness does not depend on circumstance, but upon YOU. This is perhaps the greatest truth in the world, and the one most persistently disbelieved.

Happiness, said Thomas Carlyle, is as the value of a common fraction, which results from dividing the numerator by the denominator. The numerator, in life, is What We Have. The denominator is What We Think We Ought to Have. Humankind may be divided into two classes: the Fools and the Wise. The fools are eternally trying to get happiness by multiplying the numerator; the wise divide the denominator.

Your Words are a Powerful Force

Tuesday, May 26, 2026 • Duration 11:40

Listen to episode 1124 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Your Words as a Powerful Force. Edited and adapted from The Mental Cure by Warren Felt Evans.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Your words are charged with the very life of you -- the vital force of your soul. They affect not only the mind, but they sink into the interior depths of our being. They are not like leaves loosened from the trees by an autumn wind, and strewn upon a lake to float upon its surface. They have spiritual gravity, which causes them to sink into the hidden depths of the spirit.

Words are the index of character. They enclose within them our thoughts, and the tone with which they are spoken indicates the state of our affections. The utterance of a single word can reveal the love, fear, or hate that lurks within it, and, as such, our life and character are laid open to public view. By the effect of our words, others can perceive the cause. The heart is the fountain; words are the stream. If the fountain is clear as crystal, the issuing spring will be the water of life.

Building Your Integrity & Self-Respect

Thursday, October 16, 2025 • Duration 14:39

Listen to episode 1061 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Building Integrity & Self-Respect | Building Your Personal Brand. Edited and adapted from The Keys to Success by B.C. Forbes.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Self-respect is one of the basic ingredients that go to make success. If we lose respect for ourselves, we will sooner or later lose the respect of others. Self-respect is not pride. It is not haughtiness. It is that hard-to-define "something" which prevents us from stooping to meanness, pettiness, harshness, bossiness; which resents every form of unfairness; which rebels against injustice; which compels us to have scrupulous regard for the rights and feelings of others.

The Inspirational Lesson of Cheerfulness

Tuesday, October 14, 2025 • Duration 16:42

Listen to episode 1060 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Be of Good Cheer. Edited and adapted from The Blessing of Cheerfulness by James Russell Miller.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Everyone carries an atmosphere about them. It may be healthful and invigorating, or it may be unwholesome and depressing. It may make a little spot of the world a sweeter, better, safer place to live in. Or it may make it harder for those to live worthily and beautifully who dwell within its circle. We are responsible for this atmosphere.

Our influence may be involuntary in its final effect. We cannot wholly change it from evil to good on any particular day by a mere volition. It is something that belongs to our personality. It is an emanation from our character; and our character is the growth of all our years, what has been built up in us by all the lessons, experiences, impressions, and influences of life, from childhood.

You are Part of the Great Chain of Life

Thursday, October 9, 2025 • Duration 16:45

Listen to episode 1059 of the Inspirational Living podcast: You are Part of the Great Chain of Life. Adapted Edited and adapted from The Mind & Its Education by George Herbert Betts.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Each individual, busied with their own affairs and blinded by their own interests, is likely to take themselves for granted and forget that they are a part of a great, unbroken procession of life, which began at the beginning and will go on till the end. Strange indeed would it be if all the generations who have lived, struggled, and died before us, and whose blood flows in our veins had left no impression upon us.

We are a part of all that has gone before, and all that comes after us will be a part of us. Each generation receives, through heredity, the products of the long experience through which their ancestors have passed. The generation receiving the gift today lives its own brief life, makes its own little contribution to the sum total, and then passes on as millions have done before.

The Gospel of Good Living

Tuesday, October 7, 2025 • Duration 14:26

Listen to episode 1058 of the Inspirational Living podcast: The Gospel of Good Living | Agnostic Spirituality. Adapted from “What Must We Do to Be Saved” by Robert G. Ingersoll.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt:I believe in the gospel of cheerfulness; the gospel of Good Nature; the gospel of Good Health. Let us pay some attention to our bodies. Take care of our bodies, and our souls will take care of themselves.

I believe the time will come when the public thought will be so great and grand that we will no longer perpetuate disease with our bad habits. I believe the time will come when we will not fill the future with cancer and insanity. I believe the time will come when we will study ourselves, and understand the laws of health and then we will say: “We are under divine obligation to put the flags of health in the cheeks of our children.”

The Source of Growth & Happiness

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: How little do the majority of us realize that everything that is desirable is so only because of its cost in effort! Supposing the Creator had provided everything full grown, ready made for our use, and that every human being had been college educated when born; supposing every wish could be gratified without any effort on our part, who would want to live in such a backboneless, jellyfish world, where there was no stamina, no initiative, no grit, no resolution, no incentive to activity, and consequently no stalwart manhood, no strong sweet womanhood, — because you know that all these things would be impossible without the constant struggle to attain.

The World is Calling You | Uplifting Podcasts

Thursday, October 2, 2025 • Duration 17:18

Listen to episode 1057 of the Inspirational Living podcast: The World is Calling You | Uplifting Podcasts. Adapted from Beginning Right (How to Succeed) by Nathanial C. Fowler.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: The monument of success is but a collection of little successes, a gathering together of small things well done. If you stand in the majesty, and dignity, and glory of your personality, with your feet planted upon the material earth and your eyes looking into the sky of opportunity, fail not to realize that (so long as the sun shines or the rain descends, so long as there is day or night) you, not others, are in command of your wonderful majesty.

The True Meaning & Power of Freedom

Tuesday, September 30, 2025 • Duration 16:28

Listen to episode 1056 of the Inspirational Living podcast: The True Meaning & Power of Freedom. Edited and adapted from Where Dwells the Soul Serene by Stanton Davis Kirkham.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: To explore the unknown regions of the mind, to seek that shining land where dwells the Soul, serene — here is a work worthy of the true explorer's mettle. Let us explore this world of thought; let us blaze a path and wear a trail up over the mountains; let us recount our escape from the wilderness, and leave a record of our journey from bondage to freedom.

It is the royal privilege of every person to so live that their life and example shall be an inspiration; to so walk erect and free that others shall be obliged to inquire as to the means of our freedom.
