More quotes by Norman Vincent Peale
The only people who don't have problems are in a cemetery.
Norman Vincent Peale
If you've been full of error and defeat, be done with it. Say, By God's grace, I'm done with it, and take charge of yourself like never before.
Norman Vincent Peale
Let go and let God. Let Him take over your life and run it. He knows how.
Norman Vincent Peale
You don't have to be tired and bored. Get interested in something. Get absolutely enthralled in something. Throw yourself into it with abandon.
Norman Vincent Peale
Believe in yourself! Have faith in your abilities. Without a humble but reasonable confidence in your own powers you cannot be successful or happy. But with self-confidence you can succeed. A sense of inferiority and inadequacy interferes with the attainment of your hopes, but self-confidence leads to self-realization and successful achievement.
Norman Vincent Peale
Do not build up obstacles in your imagination.
Norman Vincent Peale
Dare to be what you ought to be, dare to be what you dream to be, dare to be the finest you can be. The more you dare, the surer you will be of gaining just what you dare!
Norman Vincent Peale
A basic law: the more you practice the art of thankfulness, the more you have to be thankful for.
Norman Vincent Peale
Believe and create is a basic fact of successful living.
Norman Vincent Peale
Part of the happiness of life consists not in fighting battles, but in avoiding them. A masterly retreat is in itself a victory.
Norman Vincent Peale
Go to inspirational meetings, get to know men and women who are doing inspiring things. Above all, run as hard as you can from the cynics and gripers and the negativists. They are not going anywhere. You are.
Norman Vincent Peale
Hold the thought of all elements of the body working together in perfect rhythm.
Norman Vincent Peale
Positive thinking is how you think about a problem. Enthusiasm is how you feel about a problem. The two together determine what you do about a problem.
Norman Vincent Peale
Plan your work - work your plan. Lack of system produces that 'I'm swamped' feeling.
Norman Vincent Peale
Fear can infect us early in life until eventually it cuts a deep groove of apprehension in all our thinking. To counteract it, let faith, hope and courage enter your thinking. Fear is strong, but faith is stronger yet.
Norman Vincent Peale
Life is not all fun and easy going. Far from it there are many rough times. But, sadly, we too often let the hard times dull our enthusiasm. And that is dangerous, if not fatal, to our lives.
Norman Vincent Peale
Do not build up obstacles in your imagination. Difficulties must be studied and dealt with, but they must not be magnfiied by fear
Norman Vincent Peale
Nobody ever mastered any skill except through intensive persistent and intelligent practice.
Norman Vincent Peale
To be successful is to be helpful, caring and constructive, to make everything and everyone you touch a little bit better.
Norman Vincent Peale
Understanding can overcome any situation, however mysterious or insurmountable it may appear to be.
