Daily Wisdom – Motivational Podcast – Day 113 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond
I once visited a country where women were sitting on the ground spinning threads for the yarn that was used to weave sheets. These sheets came from certain animals, and in order to produce wool of exceptional quality, it required a special skill. It’s interesting that these women understood that the fact that they were endowed with a special skill, it then indicated to them that they were meant to utilize those skills to do some exceptional work.
Think about this for a second, those among us who have been blessed with special talents or skills, or have received some unexpected divine gift such as, for instance, a disproportionately high return on an investment or a transaction, or anything else for that matter that puts us above and beyond, all of us should understand that the purpose of this gift is not that we should use it for selfish purposes. To the contrary, (more…)

There is an interesting concept about a field which needs to receive the benefit of the rain. Rain benefits only the plowed fields and fields that had been sown. Early and later heavy rains also benefit the crops of the field or even the vines, but a raised field and plowed, and sown, will benefit from neither the soft rain nor the early or even the later heavy rains.
The same is also with blessings. A blessing must have a hold in something. When you give a blessing to someone, the recipient of that blessing must be able to hold on to that blessing. They must want the blessing and they must be able to hold the blessing that you’re giving them in a way that their mind, their body, they’re soul accepts. (more…)

Until recently, astronomers thought that there were 100 sextillion stars, but now, according to a new study, there may be three times that, as many as 300 sextillion stars.
Now, how did the scientists manage to overlook so many stars? It’s not like misplacing some grains of sand.
Here’s how it happened; scientists looked at our galaxy, the Milky Way, and its spiral in shape, and they assume that all galaxies had the same ratio of red dwarfs. Red dwarfs are the most common kind of stars and they’re similar to our own. But, a third of the galaxies are elliptical, not spiral. Elliptical galaxies have more red dwarf stars than predicted, 10 or even 20 times more. (more…)

Have you ever thought about the difference between taking versus giving?
When you take, there’s something that you have acquired from somebody else and it benefits, more often, you than the other person.
Giving, on the other hand, benefits both people. The one giving and the one receiving. What a pleasurable thing to do! (more…)

Success is a basic process. To be successful you don’t need to do extraordinary things. You just have to do simple things extraordinarily well. That’s the basics of life.
Basics are the most important concept that you need to live with. The basics of love, sharing, understanding, and everything are the fundamentals with which we are raised. Your parents’ values – the things you learn about the world. There is a Creator above and beyond that gives us all our basic needs. (more…)

Interests are such a valuable concept. The curiosity of a particularly attentive issue that you put your mind to. Follow your interests with your heart, follow your interests with your mind; follow them because they are your future, and a pathway by which you live.
The interests that you have is what gets you involved in the world. (more…)

It’s interesting to know that there are some people who say that we live in such a big, wide world. The truth is, the world is not that big. Even though there are billions of people on this Earth, we are all so similar and so close to one another.
It’s hard to believe that this world is such a small portion of the total entity that makes up the universe. We’re just one world. (more…)

I’m sure you’ve already heard the sentence or the phrase, “If anybody can do it, so can you!”
Although there’s truth in that, you are not just “anybody”.
You are somebody. You have to know and believe that the Creator of the world has spent tremendous amount of time, energy, and wisdom to create you. You are unique, special, and beautiful just the way you are. (more…)

There are moments in our lives when we need to be alone. There are times when difficulties and challenges arise above and beyond our capacity to understand.
One thing we know for sure is that by being alone we can often see things in a different manner and better understand. A walk on the beach, or through a forest, or just being alone sitting in a room with the lights off may give us the opportunity to think things through. Because when we do that, we find that those moments are passing by. They may seem challenging at times and they may really feel as though we will never be able to overcome them – but that is impossible. (more…)

My grandmother, bless her soul, said something so beautiful that I never forgot, “Do good and forget you did.”
It’s an interesting concept. Usually, when someone does good, they expect something in return. “I do good but I would like you to do something for me in return,” or “I do good for you, and I wish for you to thank me or at least help me out,” or there’s also, “I’ll do good for you, but at least I want to be recognized for the good that I’ve done.” (more…)

‘Everything affects everything else,’ How often have you heard this?
Many times, we feel that by doing some things that are hidden or tucked away somewhere in our private lives that it’s just between us and it will not affect anyone or anything else. This is incorrect. Everything affects everything else!
The dignity of a person is based on their action. You have the ability, if you want, to do “good” things and share with the world all the disciplines that you have learned. No matter how much you know, you can create a chain reaction from one good deed to another. (more…)

A person, it says, should not wander.
How is it possible for one to do whatever he wants, and be responsible for his own deeds?
Isn’t the whole world under the guidance of one Creator?
Is it possible for anything to happen in this world without the permission and the desire of the Creator of the world? (more…)

Honor is such a beautiful word; honesty, fairness; integrity in one’s belief and actions. It is the source of credit or distinction. It is not the place that honors the man but the man who honors the place.
In other words, we are not defined by our circumstances – it is what we do with our circumstances that defines us. Success is at the service of others not at the expense of others. What we do with our thought, speech, or action is what determines the person we are. Integrity, fairness, honesty are the attributes that each and every one of us need to have, follow, and nurture. These attributes make you the person that you are and that you can become. By others helping see themselves greater than they are – not at their expense but at yours – we help them achieve heights which they may not ever have thought they could reach. (more…)

Technology is truly amazing, above and beyond all we could ever expect. Scientists have learned that to unleash the power of the atom, size is not always an indication of power. Once we learn how to access the latent energy that exists, even the smallest particle of matter can release incredible force.
The basic process used to release atomic power is called nuclear fission, this is where the atom is broken down into smaller components. There is a lesson in this for us. (more…)

Have you ever spent time looking at a tree?
A tree is typically made up of a trunk and branches that develop from the ground and grow all the way through, and at the end of these branches are leaves. Often the tree grows to a considerable height. The tree itself is interesting.
What is the difference between one tree and others? (more…)

Fortunate means having good fortune. It is receiving good from an uncertain or unexpected source. It’s auspicious and often indicating a good thing.
In life, we don’t always know the power of our actions or choices and where the ripple effect will end. Often, we may never discover the full impact of our actions and only sometimes are we lucky or fortunate enough to see behind the curtain, how the strings of life are being pulled and directed.

Simplicity is the state, the quality, or even the instance of being simple. It is the freedom from complexity or intricacy. It’s often absence of luxury, pretentiousness, or even ordinance.
Simplicity is a life of its own. It’s a life that you can live and one that you should always pursue. No evil descends from above, everything is good. Though evil is not always apprehended, this is due only to the immensity of abundance in greatness and goodness that we can’t always see things for what they are. (more…)

“Youth,” such a beautiful word. The freshness, the vigor the spirit, the characteristic of wonder in one who is young. The appearance of youth is something we miss as we grow older.
But it’s not something that you need to give up. You can be youthful inside, even though you age outside. What matters is who you are – and the portrait of who you want to be to the rest of the world is from inside. (more…)

Daily Wisdom – Motivational Podcast – Day 18 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond
Life is about learning and growing, always accumulating more and more knowledge to become better than we are.
Sometimes our challenge is to learn from our failure rather than to stubbornly refusing to admit or even rationalizing them. By learning from our failures we can transform every one of them into an impetus of further spiritual growth. You can grow, change, and become better than you have ever been before.
Happiness begins with selfish ends but ends with selfishness not being part of life any more. Selfishness is something that we don’t need. Giving, loving, and sharing is what the world needs, and you can do it! (more…)
