Daily Wisdom – Motivational Podcast – Day 345 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond
There are many pleasures in life that a person can enjoy at any given time. There are the pleasures of resting. The pleasures of going on a trip, on a vacation and visiting far flung locations. There is also the pleasure of being around people you enjoy. Family members and people that you love.
There is the pleasure at times of reading a good book. A pleasure of taking a shower and enjoying the fresh water. Pleasures sometimes of taking a walk in a forest and admiring the beauty of an unbelievable world that we’ve been given. There are so many pleasures in life. What is your pleasure in life? Where do you truly derive pleasure.
Pleasures in life—the real ones — are the simple ones. The ones that don’t cost any money, don’t take you very far, and don’t need a lot of “stuff” around. They are the best pleasures. They are free, they are there, and they are continuously in your heart. They’re the ones that leave a memory etched in your heart with a feeling of peace and serenity. (more…)

I want to share with you today a thought about a monumental responsibility that each and every person has in this world. A person is given only the exact number of days they need to accomplish the tasks in the world.
Which tasks? Those that were assigned to their life.
If a day is not used for its own purpose, the tasks for those days could be left undone. That’s a “monumental responsibility”. (more…)

You know, it is interesting to look at the definition of the word marriage. Marriage is actually any of the diverse forms of interpersonal union, which is established in various parts of the world. This union forms a familial bond that is recognized legally, religiously, and even socially. It grants the participating partners mutual conjugal rights as well as responsibilities.
A marriage is a challenge even with the best of circumstances. Even when two individuals share common and compatible heritage, culture, or value system they will have challenges regardless of the union. When these parameters diverge, the heritage, the culture, or the value systems—they come from a different direction or different destination, the challenges for a successful marriage drops to virtually nil. It makes no different whether the individuals in question feel attached to their heritage, or their culture, or not. (more…)

Although the world is made up of many different people, different religions, different locations where everyone lives, different ethnicity, all kinds of different people, even within the same country and the same location, even within the same home, many different people live under one roof.
There is one spark that we all share, one spark of unity, and that is the spark of happiness. Happiness is defined as something which makes you feel good. Yet, there is something greater than your happiness, and it’s called joy. Joy is something that you feel not only for yourself but something that you also feel for others. Something that you can share with others. (more…)

A rule that is taught by many great people and should be part of every single person’s life, is the habit to say little but do much. If you want to help another for instance, say little and do much. If you want to give charity, say little but give much. If you want to please another person, say little and do much.
By saying little, you are not minimizing what your efforts are, you are keeping away from the information about what you’re going to do. This is the person with whom you have this relationship, or to whom you are helping, giving money, giving some knowledge, or sharing things that you have. By you saying little and doing much, you keep that away from them. Once they see the result of what you have done, they will see the accomplishments and magnitude of what you have done. They will be ecstatic about what you’ve continuously performed. (more…)

If you want to be successful in your life and if you want to succeed in growth, in understanding, knowledge, and changing your future, you need to fix time for what you do. For instance, in the concept of prayer. Prayers cannot just be said wherever, whenever, or however. Now, you do have the option to pray whenever you wish; but you should have a fixed time on a daily basis of when you want to pray and when you need to pray.
The one things to pray for are the things that will help you develop a relationship with the universe and you will get to where you want to be. However, the need to pray, the ambition that each human being has at any given time to have a part of the world, and to be part of the growth of the world, is to establish a relationship with the Creator.

It has often been said that when a person does not increase his knowledge, it actually decreases his abilities. The reason is that each of us is actually created to grow as much as possible in all aspects. That is from a spiritual standpoint, physical standpoint, emotional, or plainly from knowledge.
Knowledge is something that you acquire on a daily basis. This can be through experiences that we’ve gone through or attributes that we’ve learned and that we try to enhance upon. But one thing is for sure, everything that we learn, everything that we acquire makes us the person that we are today. (more…)

It is interesting that there are some people in this world who seek nothing but fame. They want to be known by everybody and they want to be seen by everybody. They want to be at the forefront of every single story, sometimes within the confines of their lives and other times, wherever they go and wherever they may be. A person who seeks renown is likely to achieve the opposite effect of what is actually desired. This concept is so true, and here’s how it works.
When you try to tell everyone who you are, and you want that fame, you may find a simple fame. For instance, at the office you want everyone to believe that you are smarter than everybody else around you. (more…)

There two very important concepts to discuss today. One is the difference between loving peace and pursuing peace. Loving peace is described as a person who avoids a quarrel and someone who tries to the best of their ability to stay away from what is negative or perhaps even a dispute. Pursing peace, however describes what happens when the quarrel has already taken place and there has been a dispute.
It is common for people who have quarreled and are into some kind of an argument to avoid each other. It is then necessary to pursue peace in order to make peace between them. This is such a great attribute to try to do that. (more…)

I read a message today from a man with an incredible story. He wrote that he had listened to one of my podcasts and hearing the message, he decided to change his life. By changing his life, he was also able to affect other people around him including his spouse, the relationship with his children, and also the attitude that he had at his job. His life had been completely changed.
I wondered, what was it he heard that I said which was so unique or special? He wrote in his message: “It was nothing you said, but rather it’s the words that were expressed in what you said.”
It’s interesting how by making a podcast or sending a message, you can affect people on the other side of the world. This person lives miles and miles away from here, in a different country, speaking a different language, but he heard one of the podcasts and it affected his life. Is this what you’re all about? You and I, changing the world? The answer is “Yes”. (more…)

I have given many lectures throughout the world pertaining to many different subjects. Just recently, during one of my lectures, several of the people who were sitting in the front had tears in their eyes; unexpected tears. Something that I said, a concept that I spoke about, a story that I told, an idea that I shared had caused those tears to come down their cheeks.
Now, you may say, “Is this the right thing to do?” If you affect people and they react in such a way that unexpected tears come out, you know that you have touched their heart. You know that you have come into a place in their life where goodness resides. Through your words, your story, your cues, your examples, or even whatever it is that you shared with them as an idea, somehow brought out an emotion which caused their tears to come down. This is the right way to do what you want to do. This is the right way to give a lecture. (more…)

Recently I was on a flight, I was scheduled to fly at a certain time. I arrived at the airport on time. I registered and gotten my ticket and my boarding pass. Everything was according to plan. But for whatever reason, everyone had gotten on the plane except me. They said they didn’t have a seat for me. I couldn’t understand what had happened. I calmly approached the desk and asked the stewardess, “What about my seat? I have not been assigned a seat?”
She said that my name had been bumped off. The airlines had overbooked the flight and one name was bumped off, mine. I had flown many, many times over the years. This has never happened to me.
I was in a quandary because I had a business appointment. My flight was going to be now delayed and I would not be on time, and many people were waiting for me to make a presentation. What should I do? (more…)

Have you ever heard the expression, “Leave me alone”? It seems that when someone says this to you, or anyone else, this expression has a negative connotation. “Leave me alone” may sound like, “I don’t want to be with you. I don’t need you and I don’t want anyone around me. I just want to be by myself.”
The truth is, a “leave me alone” time can be the ultimate gift to yourself on a daily basis. Every single day we manage to go through obstacles, and at times try to overcome some of the most difficult challenges that we have in our life. Sometimes we succeed and other times it seems that we don’t succeed. (more…)

It is quite incredible, when you think about the power of a shadow. Depending on the time of the day the sun’s location in the sky, the very same object’s shadow will be either short and fat, or tall and thin. Since your shadow is always with you, it is actually a built-in compass.
As long as you are not in the forest or a city of skyscrapers, your shadow will be there with you until you sleep. It’s also a ready-made source of outdoor fun for kids. Do you remember when you were younger and actually tried to chase your shadow? It was always a lot of fun.
Just as the movement of a person’s body is reflected and magnified in his own shadow, every step of our conduct in this world arouses spiritual forces of incomparable power in the universe. (more…)

There are people whom we love and those whom we respect. There are also those that we miss. A way to keep in touch with them is to call them. To some it may be difficult because it’s been quite some time since you’ve spoken to them. To others it maybe not as simple because you may have had an argument with them and you feel that that call will not be beneficial. And for others, you don’t want to call because you don’t have much to say to them.
My suggestion is just to make the call.
Whoever they are, if you know them and they are acquaintances of yours, make the call. Call them to wish them a good day. Call them to tell them you miss them. If you’ve had an argument with them or a disagreement, call them to make up. Call them. That was the sole reason why the phone was invented, so that you can make the call. So that we can bring people together and communicate while we’re away from each other. That is the sole purpose the phone technology was created. (more…)

Each and every human being has been given a heavenly gift. Every single day that you wake up, you have been given a gift. The gift of time, the gift of opportunity, and the gift to choose what you wish and make this world a better place than you found it. The Creator’s mercy forever means that I have an excellent chance to do much better today than I did yesterday.
One concept is financial independence, where nobody and nothing has a claim on you. You are totally and incredibly dependent upon the resources of your own work. If you think about that, there is an incredible feeling there which gives you a serenity which is absolutely, undeniably quiet, fruitful, and always there. It is more than a mystery – it is actually a reality. (more…)

There is an analogy used of a person who lives in the city with a king over that county. The wanting or willingness to visit the king is not so simple, because the king is sitting in his palace and is not easily accessible to everyone. After all, he’s the king. But sometimes the king takes the time to go out and meet the people.
When the king is in the field, it is easy for everyone to approach and to present him with a petition or whatever it is that we needed. Often the king receives everyone with grace, and even offers them to fulfill their requests. There are times in the calendar of our days, our lives, when the King of the universe grants us this opportunity to speak with Him privately, one-on-one. Where He says, “What can I do for you? How can I help you?” (more…)

Sometimes you will speak to people who say, or perhaps even you say, “I keep falling. I keep making the same mistake that I made over and over again. Even though I try to be better. I try to overcome these challenges yet I keep falling. I keep falling in the same mistakes and sometimes even more so than I did before. I keep falling. No matter what I do, no matter how hard I try, no matter what happens, there’s another obstacle, and I keep falling, so what’s the point?
What should I do? Why do I keep falling?” (more…)

There are times in our lives when we feel that the challenges are bigger than we are, and we are not able to overcome them. It seems that, in an unconditional way we’re not going to succeed and things are very, very difficult. This is an option that we have. We can live in this anxiety, and we can live with the passion of knowing that we are going to eventually come out of it, but with sadness. Or we can overcome that.
At times you are not sure, because things are challenging and difficult. You may not know where you’re going or whether or not the outcome will be what you would like it to be.
If you’re down, go ahead and sing. You can hum or you can sing. I suggest you sing to yourself without words. Make sure that the song that you’re singing is something that you heard once that touched your heart. (more…)
