At first he served the mayor of his town, until he discovered that the mayor was under a duke who was far more powerful than he. Thereupon he left the mayor to serve the duke, until he found that the latter had to obey one greater than any duke, the emperor. Then he transferred his allegiance to the emperor, whom he served until one day he heard the emperor say that he was afraid of the devil."What! you afraid of the devil!" cried the giant. "Is the emperor afraid of anything? Is there anyone stronger than the emperor? If so, I will serve him."Leaving the emperor, he hunted for the devil, whom he found and served. But he soon learned that the devil was afraid of someone more powerful than himself, the Christ.--------------------- Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

Why the Older Should be Happier
Listen to episode 1157 of the Inspirational Living podcast: The Benefits of Growing Older. Edited and adapted from Essays of an Optimist by John William Kaye.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: One of the great advantages of age is that we are not wont to disturb ourselves by doing things that we do not like, simply for the look of the thing. There is absolute misery in pretentiousness of all kinds, and youth is infinitely more pretentious than age. There are some people who never outlive their vanity; but, as a general rule, it may be maintained that the longer we live, the less we care what others think of us, and the less we strive after effect. --------------------- Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

Inspiration from Lao Tzu | Wisdom of the Tao Te Ching
Listen to episode 1156 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Tao Te Ching. Edited and adapted from Dwight Goddard’s translation of the Lao Tzu’s classic book Tao Te Ching.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: The Tao that can be understood cannot be the primal, or cosmic, Tao, just as an idea that can be expressed in words cannot be the infinite idea.And yet this ineffable Tao is the source of all spirit and matter, and being expressed is the mother of all created things.Therefore not to desire the things of sense is to know the freedom of spirituality; and to desire is to learn the limitation of matter. These two things, spirit and matter, so different in nature, have the same origin. This unity of origin is the mystery of mysteries, and it is the gateway to spirituality.--------------------- Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

You Have Tremendous Hidden Powers
Listen to episode 1154 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Unchain the Giant Within. Edited and adapted from New Thought Healing Made Plain by Kate Atkinson Boehme.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: The human being has always had many hitherto undiscovered powers, the horizon of the Impossible continually receding as we advance upon it.

How to Accomplish the Most in Your Life
Listen to episode 1153 of the Inspirational Living podcast: How to Accomplish the Most in Your Life. Edited and adapted from Character Building by Booker T. Washington.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: In thought, in talk, in action, I think you will find that you can separate life into these two divisions: the dark side and the bright side, the discouraging side and the encouraging side. You will find, too, that there are two classes of people. There is one class that is schooling itself, and constantly training itself, to look upon the dark side of life; and there is another class, made up of people who are, consciously or unconsciously, constantly training themselves to look upon the bright side of life.--------------------- Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

Becoming a Person of Original Power
Listen to episode 1152 of the Inspirational Living podcast: How to Become a Well Rounded Person. Edited and adapted from Essays on Work and Culture by Hamilton Wright Mabie.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: A person of original power can never be confined within the limits of a single field of interest, nor can they ever be content to use the skills of a single occupation. They cannot pour their whole force into one channel; there is always a reserve of power beyond the demands of the work which they have in hand at the moment. If you wish to become a person of such power, remember this. Wherever you may find your place and whatever work may come to your hand, you must always be aware of the larger movement of life which encloses your special task. You must have the consciousness of that central power from which all activities are inadequate manifestations. --------------------- Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.
