Shadows

Daily Wisdom  – Motivational Podcast – Day 143 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond

Have you ever thought about the shadows that are out there?

Depending on the time of the day and the sun’s location in the sky, the very same object’s shadow will be either short and fat or tall and thin. This is fascinating because, since your shadow is always with you, it is a built-in compass. As long as you are not in a forest, or a city full of skyscrapers, it is there. Following you wherever you go.

Just as the movement of a person’s body is reflected and magnified in his shadow, every step of our conduct in this world arouses spiritual forces of incomparable power. Every action that you do in this physical world has tremendous reaction and ramification in the world of spirits. But, the concept of our attitude in this world impacts the spiritual as well. And it’s not limited to a physical action, it also includes even the world of thoughts. (more…)

True Unity

True Unity

Daily Wisdom  – Motivational Podcast – Day 142 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond

How can you create true unity? After all, some of us are leaders while others are followers. What could human beings of such wide spectrum of social standing possibly have in common?

The answer is given by a great man who said, “Firstly, who is to say, who is ultimately higher on the ladder of achievement? Appearances can be deceiving and we tend to over-evaluate ourselves while under-evaluating others.

“Secondly,” he continued, “even if we had evaluated ourselves correctly, just because we excel at one particular aspect of life doesn’t mean that there are no other aspects others exceed us. Everyone is a leader in some way. Therefore, our collective success depends on every person’s unique contribution to the world. (more…)

Why Not Make Up

Why Not Make Up

Daily Wisdom  – Motivational Podcast – Day 141 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond

Is there someone in your life with whom you’ve had a misunderstanding? A fight? A dispute? Or even a grudge you’re holding against that person?

Why not make up?

Would it be different if that person was not well? Or you heard that this person was possibly dying? How would you feel?

Making up is one more reason why the world was created with a certain amount of time. We are each given so many days to live. Days to do good and days to do great things. When days come where we do things which are either inappropriate or inadvertently wrong, then we need to forgive and forget. Especially if that wrong has been done to us. One doesn’t decide what happens to him but one does decide what he wants to do with what happens to him. (more…)

Take a Minute

Take a Minute

Daily Wisdom  – Motivational Podcast – Day 140 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond

There is one character trait that is so beautiful and particular to the refinement of your life, and that is patience.

Many people say, “What does patience have to say and what does patience have to do with me?”

Patience says so much about a person. It describes how confident they are in their life and how sure they are of the results of their activities. By taking a minute and realizing that everything in this world has its place and has its time by using the character trait of patience, you will see so much in your life, that other people cannot.

The key indeed to everything is patience. It says that you get the chicken by waiting for the egg to hatch, not by smashing it. Have you ever heard that expression? It is true; if you smash it, you’ll never see that chicken. But if you are patient and you let it happen, you’ll see what comes out. (more…)

Miniature Tree

Miniature Tree

Daily Wisdom  – Motivational Podcast – Day 139 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond

The Japanese are masterful in developing tiny, dwarf trees. These trees, which would normally grow sixteen or seventeen feet tall, grow only a few inches high.

How? By removing them from their soil, snipping off their buds, and using micro-fertilization, these little trees stay very small and grow just a few inches high.

I ask you this question; how is your mind? What are you doing to it?

If you take it away from its strength and its connection to G-dliness, goodness, holiness, and greatness you would be the same as these miniature trees. Why take it away and keep it away from fertilization?

The fertilization in this case, is the goodness of things that you do, things that you have, people that you know, and the lessons that you learn.

Why would you do this? Why would you, at any given time, give all of it away? (more…)

Your Home

Your Home

Daily Wisdom  – Motivational Podcast – Day 138 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond

Your home should be a place where there are no ambiguities. A place where you can feel good about yourself and everything that’s around you. Where capabilities, dreams, passion, belief, strength, are all there to help you replenish your enthusiasm and remove any doubts. And that is where you resolve your dreams.

That’s your home. Make it the place where serenity and harmony reside – all the time. (more…)
