Motivational Podcast Excerpt: Welcome to the Inspirational Living podcast. I hope that you all had a wonderful Christmas and holiday season. Today’s reading was edited and adapted from The Joy of Living by Orison Swett Marden, published in 1913.
Is it not strange that while we ought to make a profession of living, most of us are not even amateurs in this art of arts? We never learn the business of real living. We become specialists in our profession or our business, but in right living (which makes or mars the happiness of life), we never become experts.
We know next to nothing about the human machine, which holds the secret of all our success and happiness. We pay much less attention to it than we do to our business mechanisms. The human machine is the only medium by which the soul and the mind connect with the material world, and this marvelous mechanism, this temple Beautiful, should be kept in the superbest condition — for whatever mars it, mars the soul's expression.
