The Daily Ascent

Author: Operation Podcast

Welcome to The Daily Ascent. I'm Molly Carmel and this is the podcast I always wished existed: a bite-sized, on-the-ground spiritual note that can shift your thinking and your outlook on life. Because sometimes, that's all it takes a small shift in what we choose to believe to make the day a little better, and to make us a little more awake, alive and ascending. Each weekday, we climb together rising above the noise, finding the flow, and getting grounded in what really matters so you can live your day with more meaning, connection, and ease.

Ep. 113 | Why You Can't Make Brave Decisions Based on What Might Happen
Episode 113
Wednesday, 8 April, 2026

In today's episode, I'm telling you about an amend I almost didn't make — because I was certain I already knew how it would end. My spiritual teacher said something to me that I have never forgotten. Thomas Merton writes that we have to stop depending on the hope of results and start concentrating on the value, the rightness, and the truth of the work itself. She didn't pick up. And something in me still cleared. Question to carry into your day: What are you not doing because you've already decided how it ends? Want to chat about working together? Me too!
