Summary: Listen to episode 33 of the Inspirational Living podcast: When To Compromise & When Not To Compromise. Adapted from “Some Needed Notes on American Character” by Robert E. Speer.<br> <br> <br><br><strong>Podcast Excerpt:</strong> <i>Compromise is when we surrender our principles to the degree that others do not understand what those principles ARE, or when we hold back something that is vital, or cover over deceptively or misleadingly something essential. When we take a position that is inconsistent with the position that we hold in our hearts, that is compromise, and that is wrong.<br> <br> <br><br>It is better to bear the burden of impracticality, than to stifle conviction and to pare away principle until it becomes mere triviality. Our resolution to search for the highest verities, to give up all and follow them, must become the supreme part of ourselves. Otherwise, the loss by compromise to ourselves and others is certain. <br> </i>
