  1. Building a Powerful Personality

    Building a Powerful Personality

    Listen to episode 1070 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Building a Powerful Personality. Edited and adapted from The Keys to Success by B.C. Forbes. Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Personality is the sum of what you are. Personality means character— plus. Many persons have a good character, but a personality signifies something other than honesty, truthfulness, industry, and the like. It embodies all these and something more. Personality implies pleasing, winning ways, graciousness, heartiness, enthusiasm, magnetism.  To have a gracious personality we must cultivate graciousness. To have a personality that radiates the right qualities, we must possess the right qualities. We cannot wear the right kind of personality and be the wrong kind of person. We may indeed have brilliant talents and un-selfish natures, and yet fail to cultivate or exhibit the kind of personality that inspires love and admiration.  ---------------------                                  Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

    Your New Life May Come in an Instant

    Listen to episode 1069 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Your Life Can Change in an Instant. Edited and adapted from New Thought Healing Made Plain by Kate Atkinson Boehme. Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: In the forming of an organism, there is a moment when the Quickening comes; and from that moment, the organism becomes a creature of new life and action. Before the Quickening, it has life in a certain sense — that is, it grows and has some functional activities. But after the Quickening, it has a new power: that of independent movement, of acting upon impulses of its own. From being a negative being that is acted upon, it becomes an acting entity, an individual with a will of its own. ---------------------                                  Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

    How to Impress Others Through Conversation

    Listen to episode 1068 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Your Personality and Your Speaking Voice: How to Develop Them by Clare Tree Major. Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: You may impress people through your physical poise; your refined voice and charm; the jewels of wisdom you have culled from life; but the real test of your power of personality lies in your command of the art of conversation. The first rule of good conversation is to have something worth saying, and to say it as briefly and interestingly as possible. Merely pouring out a constant stream of words isn't conversation. No one can be more thoroughly and unforgivably boring  than the man or woman whose habit it is to  deluge every long suffering acquaintance with an unending flow of speech. ---------------------                                  Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

    NOV 6

    How to Uplift Instead of Criticize

    Listen to episode 1067 of the Inspirational Living podcast: How to Uplift Instead of Criticize. Adapted from the book: “Success Through Thought Habit” by Benjamin Johnson. Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: When we realize that to attain even a partial control over our own thoughts is a wonderful achievement (while complete self-mastery borders on the miraculous), the absurdity of trying to regulate the behavior of others is made so plain that no one can evade admitting it. Action is the manifestation of thought. Imagination then may be said to be pictured thought, while personality is the materialization of Imagination. The more active the imagination, the more ingenuity is required to guide it into constructive paths and away from those that lead to criticism and condemnation of others whose conduct does not happen to meet with our approval, or whose example we fear may not be quite what it should be for somebody else. ---------------------                                  Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

    The Secret Power Within You

    Listen to episode 1066 of the Inspirational Living podcast: The Science of Being Great. Adapted from a book by the same title by Wallace D. Wattles. Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: There is a Principle of Power in every person. By the intelligent use and direction of this principle, you can develop your own mental faculties. Each one of us has an inherent power by which we may grow in whatsoever direction we please, and there does not appear to be any limit to the possibilities of our growth. No person has yet become so great in any faculty but that it is possible for someone else to become greater. The possibility is in the Original Substance from which we are made. Genius is Omniscience flowing into humanity. ---------------------                                  Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

By irony I mean nothing hard or cruel, but only that gentle laughter which arises from the realization that most things don’t matter. Most tempests are in a teapot, much of the world’s ado is about nothing, most frantic medicines are for diseases that would best cure themselves if left alone.
