Daily Wisdom – Motivational Podcast – Day 174 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond
You may ask the question, “Is it true that joy can break all boundaries?” The answer is yes. Now, what boundaries are we speaking about? Boundaries are constrictions. They are feelings of fear and feelings of demolition and destruction; things that hinder your future, hinder your past, and keep you in a dark place. Those boundaries can be broken at any given time.
If at any time you feel that the world is caving in on you and things are not able to be accomplished, you’re not able to move forward. If you’re not able to break loose from the situation that you’re in, be it physical, spiritual, psychological, or even emotional, then you need to switch from wherever you are now, into joy. Joy breaks all boundaries. When you are joyous, nothing stands in your way. If I remain I, then I can never experience infinity, divinity, goodness because I remain just me. In life, you don’t need to be perfect; you need to be accountable; so, look back at what it is that’s restricting you at this point. (more…)

It was said “A truly courageous person is not someone who never feels fear but someone who fears the right thing in the right way, at the right time.” This was said by Aristotle, a philosopher.
What are the true sources of fear? Many people today are scared of what might happen to them in the future because of the economy, because of their health or because of their age. Things are happening; companies are changing so people have the fear of losing their job. The fear of getting sick perhaps, or the fear to, at any given time, being able to use their true feelings where it needs to be. It’s a loss of control in our society and there’s a sense that one quake after another will shift all the foundations of our society and will continue to shift it towards nothing good. Those words are completely destroyable, so the person feels desperate. Now these scare people because they feel they will be helpless. (more…)

There was once a story about a lone traveler who was crossing the snowy mountain late at night. He knew that if he fell asleep death would inevitably follow. He struggled bravely against his sense of sleep, which actually weighed down his eye lids; and it was slowly creeping up on him.
At this moment of crisis, his feet struck something that was lying across his path. He bent over and found that it was a human body buried beneath the snow. He was stunned by this finding.
He picked up the person and within a short period of time he found himself holding the body of this person in his arms and rubbing them. All limbs were absolutely frozen.
In order to restore some sort of life into that person, he held him close in his arms. After a short period of time, with the warmth and energy that he exerted, the person actually came back to life and was very thankful. (more…)

How we feel about ourselves is a matter of choice, rather than circumstances?
The major determining factor of how we feel about ourselves lies in our true personal philosophy. Ask people whom you know why they feel a certain way about certain things or certain issues. You will most likely discover the reason why they feel this way is they really do not know how to deal with issues in their lives.
Lacking information… not being able to make proper conclusions… not being able to put together the bits and pieces of our lives… these things can make it challenging, if not impossible, to move forward. If we knew better we would feel better. Why would we feel better? We would begin to make better decisions and from those decisions we could do so much more with better choices and better results.

What would happen if we all put our minds together to work, read more books, take classes, and discover new ways to refine who we are and the philosophy that we believe we in?
What would happen if we all develop a new attitude about our past, a new vision about our future, and change the way we are today regarding our present?
What would happen? Where would we be? What would change? Think about that.
Each of us already have enough mental, spiritual, intellectual, and creative power to do all that we can and everything that we dream of doing. Everyone has it.
So, what stops us from it? (more…)

Haven’t you always been told, “be yourself.” Sometimes you wonder what that means. I may have a suggestion.
Being yourself means being truthful. Don’t say anything unless you know it is true in your heart. Always be alert. Know that a minute is way too precious to waste and time must be used properly.
Be diligent. Decide what needs to be done and do it with enthusiasm and joy.
Be respectful and honor every person you meet and although this person may or may not be a friend of yours, they are also human beings, so honor them and respect them. Being yourself means having a peace of mind.
Be calm and be composed and let it show in everything that you do. (more…)

You may ask yourself under certain circumstances, “why me?”
“Why do I struggle?”
“Why do I have to look like this?”
“Why do I have to be this way?”
“Why do these things happen to me?”
“Why are things so difficult and so challenging?”
“Why am I never able to do something?”
“Why, at times, do I fail?”
“Why? And why me?” (more…)

In this world, there is nothing greater than being able to appreciate someone that you’re with. There is nothing greater in this world to appreciate than such as nature, scenery, and everything else that you do. How would you do that? Wherever you are, be there. Whatever you do, be there. If you are at a show with friends or just alone be there at all times— not just part of you, all of you.
By being there you will not miss anything in this life. You will be able to overcome any challenge. You will be able to understand and construct in your mind a plan for everything that you have to do. You will be able to succeed. You will be able to rise. You will be able to overcome. Nothing will stand in your way. You will see clearly, not just past the future, but also past your experiences. You will see and understand what you need to know and what you need to do. (more…)

Sometimes, you may feel things piling up in your life, in your mind, and around you, and it becomes simply overwhelming. An overwhelming amount of information, duties, and tasks that you have to go through and you are not too sure if you are capable of accomplishing them.
When things seem to be overwhelming, why not take a minute and think about what your life is all about. You have been given a mission, and this mission is doable. Otherwise, if the Maker of this world were to give you something which was impossible, what would be the purpose? What would be the intent?
It is not a game; life is serious; life is good; life is truthful. More than anything else life is a series of accomplishments; actions which we can pile one upon another to get them all done. When you feel the sense of being overwhelmed, and things are above and beyond what you think you can accomplish, sit down, relax, look at the issues and analyze them.
Break it down in this very simple format: (more…)

Distress or uneasiness of the mind caused by fear of danger or misfortune is the definition of anxiety. Why would you be anxious?
Within every love there is fear. Anxiety is the fear that you could lose that love. It could also come from the fact that there is a fear of not getting what you wish or what you want. Is anxiety truly necessary?
What purpose does it serve?
Think about it, if you are in charge of your world then you have within yourself the power, energy, and the capacity to change everything around you. If only you put your will to it. Will compared to anxiety is very powerful. Anxiety may cause you to feel at times exhausted or even become despondent. (more…)

Good friends are hard to come by; when you find them, be careful to keep them close to your heart. Be careful how you react to some of the things that they say. A good friend is someone that irrespective of what you do, will always be there for you.
A good friend is always there. (more…)

Did you know that the heavens above are a clear unprecedented mirror of the earth below? Everything that you do affects everything else in this world. Whatever you see up in heaven is a mirror of what is down on Earth.
You may ask the question “How could that be?” You don’t see it that way and it does not appear to be correct so how could it be? I will tell you.
Everything that we do affects everything around us. Every action, speech, and thought has its own particular strength and energy that you create which is mirrored up in Heaven. Therefore, when you do think or say something that is good, productive, respectful, kind, with integrity, honesty, or diligence, that comes from your heart and is meant to do good, the Heavens then act as a mirror. From the Heavens comes the exact same goodness. Just as much as you are spreading and showering this goodness around yourself, so the heavens reply to you. (more…)

People have often asked me, “How do you get a ‘guiding light’ in the right portion?”
A guiding light is like a coach or a mentor. It’s an important mission, and of course, you will no doubt meet several of those people in the course of your life. It’s critical to you and your future to choose them wisely. A mentor, for instance, is someone to whom you commit a great deal of time and attention, and who, ideally, will take a very focused interest in you as well. That’s what he’ll do, and he or she will be able to help you overcome any challenge.
The process of finding your “guiding light”, it begins first of all with a clear-sighted view of what your life’s goals are and what you should be, both from a career and personal life; not just something that you take lightly but something that you think through. If you’re starting, for instance, as an associate in a job, you might want to choose the person who’s the most qualified in that business to become that “guiding light” for you. Selecting a mentor as a “guiding light” is not just a matter of finding someone you like or feel comfortable identifying with; make sure that this person knows how do you choose or that their genuine history shows success, that they’ve helped other people. It’s quite amazing how many people choose a mentor or a guide without looking at their past. (more…)

Do you walk around thinking that G-d is angry with you?
Or are you believing that you have done so many negative things that at this point there’s almost no hope?
After all, why shouldn’t He be angry with you or even abandon you?
You know you have done things that He doesn’t like. In fact, you don’t even think about Him many times.
So, why should He care about you?
Those are deluded dreams at the core of your consciousness. In every single person, there is a spark of G-dliness. It is awake and it is are waiting for you to react and understand. At no point in time are you alone and by yourself. G-d is never angry at you. From above, He pours an insurmountable and infinite amount of love. Love that never subsides nor changes, regardless of what you do, what you think, what you say, and how you act. It’s there. (more…)

At times, we are confronted with opportunities to engage in some mundane act. It does not necessarily mean that the Creator wants us to take that opportunity and run with it. Even if it appears that we mainly do so for some holy purpose. It could very well be that in the whole grand scheme of things, in this beautiful universe of ours, this opportunity may have presented us with something that we need to walk away from. This could be even harmful to us. We must therefore assess every new situation carefully.
Naturally we can be partial to a distorted conclusion. We have to be so careful about that. In order to remain unbiased, you have to detach yourself from the evaluation process and you have to be very careful on how you make that decision or what your next move is going to be for any of these opportunities.

Many people, including myself, have questions at times about life and what it brings and what it’s supposed to be. We often also ask the question, “If there is a Creator of the world, where is He? What does He do? How come I can’t see His face? And if so, why can’t He speak with me?”
The truth is, no one has seen, per se, G-d and lived, at least not that we know of. Because to see what is above and beyond is then no longer human; it is divine. There are things we see in life by looking directly at them and there are things we see with our eyes closed; we imagine them. We see them because we can feel them. There are things that we hold onto by grasping them and there are things that we hold onto by letting go. That’s just how things are in the world. It’s just a perception. (more…)

There’s a saying that says you have to distance yourself from a bad neighbor and you should not cling to a wicked person. On the surface, it appears that somehow, it’s redundant; stay away from bad people. In truth, however, there’s a much deeper lesson in these words. In fact, a close examination of these words yields an altogether different sentiment.
What is the difference between a “bad neighbor” and a “wicked person” and why must one go so far as to distance oneself from the former while concerning the latter? It is enough to avoid just clinging to him?
A bad neighbor means just that. It’s not a bad person, but one whose proximity to yourself is detrimental to you. It may be that, that person is a righteous person, a good person, a sweet person, a kind person, and that his path in life is, for him, most suitable and desirable, but it is, for you, totally different, and it is wrong and destructive. For you, that’s not what you need so you have to keep your distance. (more…)

You have to ask yourself at all times wherever you are in your life, if you are a positive influence? In other words, when you walk to a place, do you light up the place or do you actually make a difference? Being a positive influence is something that can affect the world at all times. It means that when you go somewhere, you become a lamplighter – you bring joy, goodness, and kindness, and support, and you actually brighten up the environment where you’re at. It’s not a talent, it’s not a gift, and it’s not an opportunity; it’s a desire to be the best that you can be. It’s something which is a need “in” every person but it’s something they have to cultivate. So you always have to ask yourself, am I a positive influence on the world and do I generate goodness and bring about more light, or do I actually take away the light? (more…)

At times, we are somewhat confused or dismayed by what the future is offering us. We’re not sure where to go, what to do, how to respond, how to act, or even how to make a decision that will be beneficial, not just for us, but for everyone around us.
There is a way to do this. We are all capable of correcting our errors of the past. There is often a great value making sure this happens. How? Very simple, it’s called the “outside voice”.
When someone is confused or somewhat lost, turn to someone else. Someone who can provide you an objective appraisal of who you are and what you are doing and if it’s proper or not. The potential impact that it can have on your thoughts and your action can change your future. An objective appraisal from someone whose opinion you can respect-someone other than yourself. This will enable you to change things, and see things in a way that you have not seen them before. (more…)

You and I make up the whole world. I love the fact that you and I can be together at any given time and make this world a better place to be. Every time I am with you I realize how important you are to me. These are words that we say to anyone that we love, words that we repeat and words that we think about.
Why not share these moments with someone that you appreciate? You can do it now, I strongly suggest it. (more…)
