Dr. Dahan's Daily Wisdom - Motivational Podcast

Daily Wisdom  – Motivational Podcast – Day 354 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond Have you ever taken the time and stood by the ocean and looked at it? It’s quite incredible and impressive. A majestic look of above and beyond imagination. It’s hard to believe and is interesting that it is said that all that exists on dry land also exists in the ocean. It’s hard to believe, isn’t it? The ocean is home to a vast diversity of minerals, plant life, and millions upon millions of living creatures. Can you imagine that? However, all that exists that we see at least on land, is readily discernable. But yet when we see this, and we’re told the ocean has all of it. We don’t see any of that. All we see is the vast universe. We’re told and that’s so besides the fact that it’s beneath the surface of the waters, and the waters conceal all of their existence. By standing there, you don’t see much. All you see is the water. But what’s underneath it is beyond an incredible universe. If it is as diverse as what’s on land for all the amazing, incredible, above and beyond understanding of life creatures, how vast is this world? How incredible the vast ocean and all the secrets that are within it. This is what you should see when you meet someone. Even though all you can possibly see is a person, what’s beneath that person is an incredible human being with potential, a heart, emotions, and feelings. If you give them the opportunity to express themselves you will find that this person has so much to give. They not only want to give it; they earn the ability to share it if you only give them the opportunity to express themselves. Not by impressing them of how great you are, but on how you can make them feel and see themselves greater than they are. By lifting them, you rise. By helping them see the beauty within themselves, they can share all of this. This is what you should see. Like the vast ocean, you may only see the water on the surface but it is full of millions of creatures within it. Did you enjoy the motivational daily podcast?

Daily Wisdom  – Motivational Podcast – Day 132 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond Family is such a beautiful word. What does it mean to you to have a family? Does it mean siblings spending time together, or visiting family members whom you haven't seen for a while? Does it mean sometimes taking the advice from your parents and listening to it carefully? I have an idea to share with you what family is. Family is a gathering of loving people who care for one another, and look at each other at any given time with an eye of love and accepting. And at the same time, always remembering that the bond that exists between all of them is at the root of being the family. Once you remember that you come from the same source and you actually are part of the same source, the family bond becomes undeniably strong and unequivocally tied to you. When a tree grows, it has branches and the branches extend upward and outward. As those branches extend they often give life to trees of their own. How? The tree itself grows into branches which give life to all kinds of leaves. These leaves then become the bearers of fruits, and these fruits have seeds in them which will give rise to other trees. You see? It started as a trunk and ended as a parent to another tree. That's what family is. Family is the sharing of ideas and concepts, and all of the good things that we have to share with one another. Having a family means always being bonded to someone who cares for you and loves you. It's not only what you get from the family, it's also what do you give and what you bring to the family members. Sometimes, of course, some family members could be annoying, and we're not too sure that this is with whom we want to be at that moment, but that is just a moment in life. Look at the greater picture. Look at the wider angle in the vision of what the family brings. There are, unfortunately, people in this world who don't have families; their family have either passed away or gone away, or some of them, just don’t stay together. So, if you have a family, parents, siblings, and they're all together, even just through connections of the internet, consider yourself very lucky. Consider yourself extremely happy because that is a gift that you were given that not everyone has, so enjoy it to the fullest extent. Did you enjoy the motivational daily podcast?

Daily Wisdom  – Motivational Podcast – Day 766 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond In life, we often don’t realize what our actions can do. It is interesting that every single action that we take affects the whole world. Have you ever heard the concept about the butterfly that flaps its wings and the sound that it creates by flapping its own little wings can create a tsunami - literally - on the other side of the world. It sends waves all the way to the other side of the world. We don’t always know the power of our actions, and we don’t always realize that our choices can create a ripple effect, and that those ripple effects can be, literally, to no end. Often, we may not even discover the full impact of our actions. Only sometimes we are lucky to see that behind the curtain of life, how all the strings of life are being pulled and directed. We see what we’ve done, and we see the effects that it had on other things, places, and people. I can tell you for a fact that I have been fortunate enough, thank G-d, to see many times the ripple effect of the things I have done. I remember that when my children were young, I would go to them every night before they would go to sleep, and I would give them a kiss, wish them a good night, and told them how much I loved them. Even today, they remember these precious moments. A ripple effect was created between a bond which will never be broken. Those are the effects that you want in the world. When you drive by and see a homeless person on the road, give them something; perhaps some food that you have left in the car, or a couple of dollars that you have in your pocket. Give a smile to someone as you walk by as you’re taking a stroll. Give a helping hand to someone trying to cross the street, who is not too certain they can make it. Let someone else pass when you’re driving and they seem to be in a rush, while you are not. Regardless of the opportunities that you have throughout the day, help others see themselves greater than they are. Make your day and their day much better, by sharing and giving. Those ripple effects, while you may not see them or the results of them, I promise you will have a tremendous, unending circumstance which will one day turn around to make this place a better place to be. A wiser, better, stronger world. Perhaps you’ll have the opportunity to see it, but if not, it’s well worth it. Did you enjoy the motivational daily podcast?

Daily Wisdom  – Motivational Podcast – Day 749 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond Have you ever been given a surprise party for an occasion in your life? It is quite amazing, astonishing, awesome, even revealing. I was given one recently by my children and I can tell you that the feeling is one of a particular beauty. When you see that people who love you gather around and have prepared for you a beautiful surprise. It was a surprise party, a celebration of success and goodness. It will be a time when you look around with amazement and goodness you and see the true fruits of many years of labor. It no longer becomes something of intuition – it’s an acceptance, a discipline, dynamic, and authentic. That’s what it was. Sitting there, I looked around at my children, each one of them made full efforts to make this a special night. Surprising someone can be a detrimental time for some people. It could even be sad. But, a nice surprise that is prepared from the heart to commemorate an event or an occasion, is truly a respect for goodness. It’s a celebration that awakens a passion and catapults your heart to brighten the future. Challenge all your dreams and make them what you have always thought them to be. I thank my children and my spouse who were there on that day. I wish for you to have the same. If you want to make a difference in someone’s life, prepare for them a surprise party. You don’t have to do it all the time but if you do it with elegance and kindness. Do it with thoughts, prepare it with the little touches, this will make a difference. It will be remembered as a dream and it will be etched in their memory forever. This is what it did for me and it was so wonderful. I wish this for each one of yours lives, because with such a dream the future is all that it can be. Did you enjoy the motivational daily podcast?

Daily Wisdom  – Motivational Podcast – Day 748 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond I met someone today who was incarcerated. I was given the name from a friend, and they asked me to visit him as they lived far away. I had the opportunity to sit with this person for quite a bit of time. Incarcerated is a difficult situation, an imprisonment to be detained, confined, jailed, or locked up. There is not much that can be done. This person had so much time on his hands. He was very upset with what happened. I asked him, “How do you feel about being here?” He said, “I am not mad at the world. I am mad at myself for what I did, to be here. If I had a message for the world, I would tell them to be continuously thankful to be free and do whatever they wish to do. Even if it is just to stay up late and look at the stars.” I was saddened by the fact that this person felt so much remorse, and yet had not been given freedom yet. He won’t come out very soon, so he told me. What he did doesn’t really matter. The fact that he is rehabilitated is what counts. In the meantime, for those of us that are free, that are able to do whatever we wish – enjoy the freedom and cherish it. Cherish every moment with every fiber of your body. Use the time preciously to do the right things. There are so many ways that you can help this world to be a better place and there are so many things that you can do to turn any frustration into a fascination. You can do it with goodness and kindness. You can help other people who need help. You can make this world such an amazing universe. It is all up to you. That is the reason why you and I were put on this Earth, so why not make the best of it? Why not help other people get what they need? It is guaranteed that if you do this you will get everything you want. Perhaps the reason why you were sent down here is to do a favor to another person or two. We don’t know. Make the best of it and use every opportunity that you have to be thankful. So be grateful for being free and being able to live happily. Did you enjoy the motivational daily podcast?

Daily Wisdom  – Motivational Podcast – Day 747 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond There are subjects which are difficult to discuss for obvious reasons, and one of them is death. What happens when a person passes away? A loved one. Someone with whom we were close. Someone we admired or someone that we looked up to… What happens to them? A story or a suggestion of something that you might want to think about. Assume, for whatever reason, a person whom you love has been called away into a distant provincial town. Their job there was going to be to serve to a higher capacity, and to occupy a position of honor. This would be in the most luxurious palace or royal academy. If a person was called to do such a job, their friends and family members around them would be proud to hear of such an event. They would be looking at this venture as a great opportunity. Now, take this example in our own world. This is what happens when someone passes away. They actually are called to a higher duty, a greater and better place. An amazing opportunity for them to do even more than they did when they were here with us. Suddenly now, following death is a great venture that happens to all the departed ones. Don’t be sad about it and don’t think that this is the end of the world. To the contrary – it is the beginning of eternity for them. This world is for us. Now you may say, “What about grieving?” You can grieve, you can feel, and you can miss them. But know that where they are going there’s a place of ultimate freedom. By believing in this, not only will you help them see you in a greater light, but you will help yourself become a better person from it. Know that you, I, and everybody else in this world one day will have to die. That is just the way the world is even if we don’t quite understand why and we don’t quite understand when. We certainly don’t ask for any of this. But that’s just the way things are. Once you accept these facts and live with those ideas it becomes so much greater of a purpose to be here and to know what you’re supposed to do with your days, your hours, and your minutes. Every moment that passes by, you should be proud of what they’ve done, and remember them in a good light. Always know that their mission has been completed; that is the reason why they left. We will miss them, but we’re happy for them. Did you enjoy the motivational daily podcast? If so, why not help us spread the goodness by posting a review on iTunes and sharing your favorite episode.

Daily Wisdom  – Motivational Podcast – Day 746 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond At times during circumstances we can be quick to judge. We look at people or their actions, and immediately, unobjectively say things and judge these people in ways that is very narrow minded. You need to be extremely humble in relation to every person. That is to consider yourself less worthy than anyone else. This is an important concept in order to lead a good life. Objectively speaking you might say, “How can you consider yourself less meritorious than those who at least appear to be less worthy of your own respect?” You have to bear in mind a very important concept, not to judge anyone until you actually have reached their place. You see, we all have challenges. The fact that sometimes we don’t succumb to these challenges or particular temptation where another person might doesn’t make us superior to them at all. Who can measure the effect of someone else’s upbringing, environment, inborn character and weaknesses against temptations that one faces? We don’t know this. We don’t know and we can’t see this. It’s often an impossible task for us to understand what some people have gone through. You may have been given the opportunity to see the challenges that you’ve been able overcome. But you know what? That doesn’t make you special and it doesn’t make you better. It doesn’t make you greater, it just makes you lucky. It makes you a lucky person if you are not having these temptations. But, if you look deep inside you have other temptations. You also have other weaknesses, ones that you have to look for and say, “What about those? What about me?” Be extremely humble in relation to every person, and judge everyone favourably. Judging is passing a critique. Inspecting someone and saying that you are the one that makes the decision on who they should be and what they should do is not proper. Not until you’ve stood in their place. Not until you’ve had the opportunity to understand what they are going through. Even then, is it really your right to do so? I suggest you not do that, ever.

Daily Wisdom  – Motivational Podcast – Day 745 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond People sometimes believe that they have a tremendous amount of pressure in their lives, and they don’t know how to react to it. There is nothing more conducive to attune the mind and the heart towards consciousness that there is a Divine Presence above and beyond us. This is the reason why people should pray daily. By praying, a person should know that there is a Being, above and beyond all our consciousness, that is watching over us. You may say, “I don’t quite see G-d when I pray.” That may be true, but to attain peace, specifically peace of mind, and general contentment, a person should pray to a higher Being. There is a Creator in this world, and through prayer and direct personal contact with this absolutely unbelievable infinite Being, G-d Himself. One is reminded every day that G-d is actually not that far away. Not in the seventh heaven or somewhere that we can’t even see or understand. The extra Being that we’re speaking about here, is yourself along with the Creator. He is present right here, right next to you, and His benevolent providence extends to each and every one individual. This is what you have to remember, not only when things are challenging in your life, or somewhere difficult. Not just when you’re not sure how to proceed forward or don’t know how to answer questions you’ve been asked. But at all times. You should have great confidence and you should have the belief and the trust that everything will be fine. Peace of mind means that you know that you’ve been created for a specific purpose, and that purpose is to make this world a better place to be. The day you were born is the day that G-d decided the world couldn’t exist without you. You have been given a mission – the mission to do good things. You may not know what your mission is, but if you look hard enough you’ll find it. You’ll see that there are so many that can use your talents, your goodness, and your time. Your reluctance to look beyond the neglect can cause you to miss the opportunity. I suggest you take a few minutes every day and pray that you realize your mission and that you understand your purpose in this world. This will give you peace of mind. There is nothing greater than knowing that your heart and your mind, combined together, are both at peace. Know what you’re supposed to do, then go in the direction that you were given. This way, you will accomplish all the things that you need to do to make this world a better place. Did you enjoy the motivational daily podcast?

Daily Wisdom  – Motivational Podcast – Day 744 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond There was once a person who had acquired quite a bit of wealth, and he believed in his heart that all this success was due to his own imagination, his ambition, his strength, his knowledge, and his beliefs. His mentor, who knew better than this, once visited him, and he asked, “What makes you think you earned all these blessings and all of this money?” The man, in the most arrogant way, answered, “Well, I’m very smart, and because of my work I deserve all the wealth that I’ve acquired.” The mentor looked at him and said, “Please follow me.” So, the man did. They went closer to a window that looked outside on the street, and the mentor asked the man, “What do you see?” The man looked outside and, through the window glass, all he could see were people coming and going. So, he said. “All I see, are people coming and going. That’s it.” Then the mentor went ahead and asked him to follow him, and he took him to a mirror. He asked him again, “What do you see now?” Then the man, with great arrogance, said, “I see myself. It’s just a reflection of me, the smart person that I am.” The mentor then asked him, “What is the difference between the two? You see, the glass of the window is not coated with silver, so in that case you could see other people. Yet this mirror, it does have a silver coating, and limits your vision so that you can only see yourself.” In life, if you cover yourself with a silver lining, all you can see is yourself. Know that all the wealth that you’ve acquired is not through your own doing, but is the benevolence of the world and the Creator. Now, of course you’ve done your part, but there’s no need to be arrogant. There are many other people who also deserve wealth. Let’s not be arrogant of that. Be proud of your accomplishments, but share your wealth. This is a lesson that we have; whatever we acquire is not necessarily out of our own doing. Of course, we have contributed, and we must have done something right. But it’s not all our doing, and other people should be considered as well. They are deserving – perhaps the same amount, or perhaps more. Did you enjoy the motivational daily podcast?

Daily Wisdom  – Motivational Podcast – Day 743 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond Our universe is made up of four separate worlds. Although they are united, they are different from one another. The first one is the world of inanimate. It is by far the greatest in quantity. As the world was created, the world of the inanimate was first developed. It includes, but is not limited to, the earth that makes up the valleys and the rivers, the sand that covers the miles of beaches, and the stones that form the mountains. The world of inanimate doesn’t have a vocal voice, like human beings do. But, at times of an earthquake, or during a violent whirlwind, it is very clear that the world of inanimate does have a way to express itself. Then there’s the world of vegetation. This category includes all the plants, flora, and the vegetation which is found throughout the world, even at the depths of the ocean. The enormous and ageless trees that we have found in the tropical forests, and the incredible variety of colors assigned to each plant, is a true testimony to the Creator and the Master of the Universe. Then there’s the world of animals – from the smallest parasite to the world’s heaviest, largest mammals. The world of animals is comprised of millions and millions of varieties. They play such a vital role in maintaining our universe. And then there’s us – humans. Humans represent the ultimate creation of the world. It is said that man was created and put in this world to create an environment where the nations can grow and flourish. The job of man is an ever-increasing challenge and it is to maintain the dignity while interacting with each human being. Now, of this category, it could never change position. We as human beings must “stay” human beings. We cannot ever degrade ourselves to become less than human beings. We are not created to be anything other than human beings. Let’s act properly and help the worlds in which each of us were created. Let’s keep our forests beautiful, and save the animals from being killed. Let’s teach the humans in this world to act truly as good people. People who care, people who love, and people who want to share. Did you enjoy the motivational daily podcast?

Daily Wisdom  – Motivational Podcast – Day 742 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond Years ago, one of my daughters was away in school, so, I wrote her a personal letter. Within that letter, I expressed the importance of time. The preciousness of how many hours are in a day and how many seconds are in an hour, and to use them properly. To invest them in goodness and brightness, and to become a different person. Then I took a letter of the alphabet – just one letter – and I chose the letter F, and what F could be. I wrote, the letter F is a simple letter in the ABC’s, but it has so much to say about life. F stands for fun, frivolities, fallacy, fashions, fads, “following foolish friends”, flashy, “first but fake”, failure, “fight fire”, “for your fate”. But the F also has a different approach. It can have foresight, to foster and fortify with fervor and fidelity on the fundamentals of faith. They will be fearless, fruitful, and they will further feature the feeling fantastic and fulfilment of your life. The same letter has so much meaning. It can be used in any way that we wish. You are one part of the world, just like a letter in the alphabet. It’s one letter of the whole alphabet. But your one part in the world can make such a difference, either as a fallacy or as a fruitful resource. It can be done to fortify the world, or to fight it with fire. Pay attention to who you are, and pay attention to the greatness of the things that you’ve done. Be careful with the direction that you go, and be careful with the decisions that you make. It can change the world. You know for a fact that you matter, even if you forget it, sometimes. I suggest you look back and pay closer attention, because life is serious and the whole world depends on your decisions. So, have a good day, and a great life.

Daily Wisdom  – Motivational Podcast – Day 741 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond If you want to accomplish many things in your life you need to limit how much you sleep. Now you may say, “Why is that? I love sleeping. Actually, sleeping is so good – it makes me feel comfortable, it gives me rest, and it allows me to dream.” This is true, and all of this is necessary, but it needs to be limited. You need to sleep little because your life is precious and your friends are precious. You need to get rid of any ambiguity that you have, once you analyze your situation, you can awaken the passion within yourself that will catapult your goals and brighten your future in the way that you’ve never even thought could be possible. To do that, you need to be awake. I am not saying again that you should not sleep, I’m just saying it should be limited. Sleep as little as you can. I personally don’t sleep very much. I love my life, and I love the fact that every single day, when I wake up, I have many more things to do, many more things to accomplish, many more things to finish. I have people to meet, places to see, things to develop, and concepts to learn. This is what the concept of maximizing your capabilities is all about. You can challenge your dreams, nurture your passion, recognize your strength, and refresh your mind with enthusiasm and authority. Get rid of all your doubts, make sure that the dreams that you’ve had during those few hours that you’ve slept will help you achieve success. For that, you need to stay awake. You will rise to the occasion and continuously advocate goodness by adapting to any challenge. You can do this, but you’ll have to limit your sleep. For those of you out there that love to sleep, I am not saying you should stop – I’m just saying you should think, unwind, and reconsider. Once you do, determine the direction that you want to go. You need to desire success, and design a diligence above discipline. You will see that you will set goals with distinguished and dynamic difference. You will demand not only grace and success, but you will reach and attain the ultimate goal. Once you recognize all of this you will see, you will be excited to go to sleep, and you will be even more excited to wake up, and finish your mission. Did you enjoy the motivational daily podcast?

Daily Wisdom  – Motivational Podcast – Day 740 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond Do you find that you're not living a meaningful life? Do you find perhaps, that you're lacking in having a life full of goodness and greatness? What is it that you're looking for? If you find it, what will there be? Once you have found the meaning of life, will there be enough life left at that moment to live meaningfully? I believe that it is better to live life as meaningfully as you know how and find more meaning as you go along. You will gain and so will those people you influence around you. If for whatever reason you're not able to do that, then think of the achievements that you're accomplishing. The things that you are accomplishing on a day-to-day basis. If your tomorrow's vision does not match your last night's dreams, then today's action won't reach your tomorrow's goals. Some people tell you that if you're never satisfied with your achievements, you'll drive yourself completely nuts. Ignore them, don't pay attention to them. Look at whatever you've done and say, "If that is good, double is better." Don't let what you've done be the final measure of who you are. The world's mission is the mission that we have in perfecting the world; there are two parts. One is “making the world what it should be; and two, stopping the world from what it should not be.” You were given that mission and the strength, the power, the intelligence, the knowledge and the ability to do so. Otherwise, you would not be here. That is a fact. But since you are here, why not do it? Forget about finding the “meaning of life,” that's just a lot of jargon. Things that won't get you anywhere. Live a life as meaningfully as you know how. Along the way, you'll find more meaning. Look for people around you to help you, to guide you, to mentor you. Read good books, things that will inspire you and show you how to do things better, both professionally, spiritually, and in every single way, and that's what life is all about. Finding the meaning of life is all about living a good life. How? You know how. Just stay away from anything which is not good, and that's a meaningful life.

Daily Wisdom  – Motivational Podcast – Day 739 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond When I was growing up I always learned that things had to be done thoroughly, comprehensively, and in an ordinate manner. If you put in the time in what you do, and do it properly, you will find benefits in the results of your labor. The fruits of that labor will be deserved properly at the right time. There are people today, who look for shortcuts. They think that they should be rich overnight. They think they should have all the intelligence and wisdom in the world, all at the tip of their fingers. Technology has brought so many wonderful things to our world and our universe, but there are no shortcuts. If you want to be educated, sophisticated, knowledgeable, and gain wisdom you will have to work. It will take time. You will have to analyze your situation and gather all the strength that you need to understand the wisdom behind science, culture, arts, and discipline. There is no shortcut to becoming rich overnight. And even if you did to become rich that quickly, would you truly enjoy it? Most likely not. You will feel one day that you didn’t deserve it and you wouldn’t appreciate it. You have to put in effort, sweat, and energy, and you will have to put in all the work that is needed in order for you to truly feel that you deserve it, and at the same time enjoy the beauty of it. Seeking shortcuts can only be dangerous. It can change the person that you are, and make things a lot cheaper than they should be. Value the process of learning and growing, take your time. There’s no rush. That is what life is all about, gaining movement, understanding, growing, accumulating knowledge, and benefiting the whole world. Not just with what you’re learning, but with what you’re sharing. Seeking shortcuts won’t help you, and it won’t help the rest of the world. Let it go, and do things one step at a time.

Daily Wisdom  – Motivational Podcast – Day 738 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond I once read that that man's life is dependent on the air around him. Without air, he cannot live, and the quality of life is dependent on the quality of the air. The air itself can be compared to not only something physical but also spiritual. In an atmosphere where there's a lack of kindness or goodness, or ethics, there is a healthy life that will be missing as well. In a place where we don't recognize that there is a Creator of the world, or that there is a Supreme Being, the environment itself is diseased. It is constantly threatened with a possibility of being stricken with contagious maladies. It's just the physical acting onto the spiritual. This is part of life. The first general step in healing is to purify that atmosphere. When there are things which are not healthy, this is the first part to take. Purification of the air is the task of every single person and those that have knowledge. Understanding of life and other things which can change the world. Now, this is effected through the letters itself that are written in the holy books. Whether or not you are a believer, know that the air has to be pure. That is the key. That is the importance of it. This is the way to clean up the air around you. Sometimes, a person finds themselves in an environment which is just not healthy. That environment will an effect not just on the people around there, but on yourself as well. If you find yourself in an environment which is not clean, not healthy, not right, walk away. If you're strong enough and if you think you can do it, clean up the air around you. Clean up that atmosphere, change the way things are, change the way people speak, change the thoughts, the actions of all those around you. If you see things that are not being done properly, make that change. You will see that you will have affected not only yourself, the people around you, but also the atmosphere. That is what it means when it says that the air around you should be pure, at all times, not just once in a while, and not just in a certain particular place, but wherever you are.

Daily Wisdom  – Motivational Podcast – Day 737 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond In the morning, we open our eyes after a good night's sleep and having stretched out our limbs, and straightened our back and even clothed ourselves. We are then ready to begin a new day, all fresh with vigor and strength. The miracle of rest and the renewed strength is experienced every single morning. This is when we rise from our sleep to begin a new day with renewed energy. But as in the case of many other wonders which we see daily, or at least at regular intervals like the rising of the sun, and the changing of the seasons, our attention is usually not as excited by these events. So, we often not look at them in a particular manner. Strength is not always found in the quality of youth. Isn't that interesting? It is always found in hope and in confidence. Consider for instance, two people. One young and the other one old and both are walking in the same road. They are climbing the same mountain and with the goal far out of sight. The question is, who will reach it? The younger one, starting without the full strength but with little hope, or will it be the older one lacking in strength but full of hope? See, this youth itself will soon get out of breath and despairing of ever attaining the goal and will give up in frustration; but the older man will typically steadily forge ahead, constantly renewing the strength with hope and confidence. You can see, physical strength will be of no avail where there is no hope. They that hope, they that believe, will renew their strength. The need for hope is greater than the need for strength. So, when you wake up in the morning and you feel refreshed, and you feel the strength coming back to you from having a good night of sleep, it's not the strength that you will need for the day. The strength is good and it's necessary. But it's not the most important concept or aspect of your life. What you will need for the day, is hope. The hope itself will get you through the day regardless of your strength. Did you enjoy the motivational daily podcast?

Daily Wisdom  – Motivational Podcast – Day 736 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond Man is the only living creature that has to dress himself in clothes. Have you ever thought about that for a moment? All other animals and birds are born with their clothes on, or they grow their own clothes such as furs and feathers and so on. Now, these protect them from the elements; the cold, the heat, the rain, and anything else that they need protection from. Human beings wear clothes not just for protection against the elements. There are climates in certain parts of the world where no clothes are necessary for protection. Yet even the natives of those climates wear certain clothing, certain coverings. It's interesting, isn't it? Clothes are important because without those, a person is somewhat ashamed of who they may be. Every decent human being has an inborn sense of shame to display his nakedness. It is a sense of inborn decency and modesty to cover his body at all times. Modesty in clothing is considered differently for various people. Some believe they have to add on other “things” above and beyond just the regular clothing. Decency, however, comes from the fact that a person recognizes what they wear. It is often said, that the person's personality is reflected in the clothes that they wear. How do you feel when you dress yourself? Do you feel that sense of shame or decency? Do you feel that it's appropriate for you to show parts of your body which are really only yours? In some countries, some people wear clothing of much lighter coverings, even skimpy, for that matter. But in others, it is felt and it is an inborn or sometime the fashion, that they wear a full apparel to cover all of their parts of their body. Again, covering your parts of the body doesn't make you decent by just that fact. No. What makes you decent is the fact that you're dressed appropriately, according to what the world relates to in our day and age. Be careful with what you wear. Be careful on how you cover yourself. If you decide to uncover yourself, be careful of the effect that it would have not just on you and your personality, but anyone around you. Covering yourself is a sense of decency. Did you enjoy the motivational daily podcast? If so, why not help us spread the goodness by posting a review on iTunes and sharing your favorite episode.

Daily Wisdom  – Motivational Podcast – Day 735 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond We are like people who are bound with ropes. When we wake up, we feel released. We are again, in control of our movements and we can get out of bed; but until that moment, we're tied. In a deeper sense, there are people who are tied hand and foot in a variety of ways. For instance, one may find oneself enmeshed in economic difficulty, or bound by financial obligation. One may find oneself a prisoner of circumstances. There are many ways to be bound up in life. Worse still, a person may be a captive of his own habits and inclination, and so they lose control over their actions. How is that? Why would anybody lose control of their actions and be bound hand and foot in these habits or inclinations? There is a way to release that. Think deeply about those actions. Some are difficult, or at least challenging. An alcoholic or a drug addict, for instance; some of these people have a disease. The symptoms these people have, need medical or often professional attention. But for others, who are not so far into the addictions, yet the inclinations or the habits have them tied down and kept them hand and foot continuously tied, why wouldn't they release those? If you think about it, if you think of the greatness of being released and being awake at all times, and being in charge of what you want to do, this is an incentive for you to be able to wake up. Wake up and be whatever you wish to be. What wake up and do whatever you wish to do. Don't ever be a prisoner of your own inclinations or habits. You should be in control of them, not a servant to them, and certainly not under the influence of those habits that are detrimental to you. Pay attention to that, and choose the path of freedom, and decide for yourself what you want to do. You can do it anytime you wish. Did you enjoy the motivational daily podcast?

Daily Wisdom  – Motivational Podcast  – Day 734 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond There are many good health habits in this world. Some we learned by ourselves and some that we are taught from families, friends, or parents. Brushing your teeth, sitting properly at the table, eating an apple a day will keep the doctor away, there are so many of these wonderful sayings. But some habits are destructive, and can, unfortunately, impede your health, or somewhat limit some of your general functions. Smoking, for instance, is one of them. Smoking will reduce your ability to run and often to do things in the happiest way. It will also control your mind at times by dictating what type of mood you will have. Drinking, interestingly enough, will have similar ideas. It might even restrict you from being able to have certain type of foods without being affected. Of course, someone who drinks excessively will also have a change in moods and be a totally different person. Drugs will also make you a different person. There are good health habits that a person should follow through on a daily basis; and those are the things that we are taught that will keep your life longer, healthier, better, in a saner way. You might say, "This is my life. I can do what I want with it." That's true. You are entirely entitled to do whatever you wish with your health or your body. But remember that there are certain things that need to be done in this world, as an improvement and those things were left up sometimes to an individual and you may be this individual. You may be the one that was chosen to make things better in this world, especially in your corner of the world, where you are or where you find yourself. During these situations, it's up to you. It is totally up to you to become the ambassador of these things and make it better than it was when you found it. How would you do that if you are drunk? How would you do that if you are stoned? How would you do that if you are totally under the influence of any drugs? You wouldn't be able to. If you really want to accomplish in this world and be productive, and do things above and beyond what you think your mind would let you do, or you think you might limit yourself to do, you need to have good health habits. It's healthy for you and it's healthy for the rest of the world. I suggest you follow that. Did you enjoy the motivational daily podcast?
