Summary

Listen to episode 935 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Your Mind Controls Your Destiny. Edited and adapted from How the Mind Works by Christian D. Larson.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Your destiny is being created hourly by you. And that something that determines what you are to create at any particular period in time is the sum total of your ideals.

Your future is not preordained by some external power, nor is fate controlled by some strange and mysterious force that master minds can alone comprehend and apply. It is our ideals that control and determine our fate. And we all have ideals, whether we be aware of the fact or not.
