Episode Description from the Publisher

Listen to episode 1141 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Living a Life Driven by Your Ideals. Edited and adapted from How to Fight the Battles of Life by Carl Hilty.Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: True idealism is not the deceiving of oneself about reality, or the intentional ignoring of reality, or the hiding from reality, or the creating for oneself a world of unreality. Idealism, on the contrary, is reached by a deeper interpretation of the world, by victory over it, and especially by victory over oneself. For we, too, are an integral part of the world and we cannot conquer the whole unless, first of all, we conquer our own part of it, by strength of principles and force of habit. ---------------------                                 Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.
