More quotes by Norman Vincent Peale
Never use the word “impossible” seriously again. Toss it into the verbal wastebucket.
Norman Vincent Peale
Become a possibilitarian. No matter how dark things seem to be or actually are, raise your sights and see possibilities -- always see them, for they're always there.
Norman Vincent Peale
The mind quickly responds to teaching and discipline. You can make the mind give you back anything you want.
Norman Vincent Peale
You must feed your mind even as you feed your body, and to make your mind healthy, you must feed it nourishing, wholesome thoughts.
Norman Vincent Peale
The word resentment means to re-feel...to feel again. Someone wrongs or wounds you in resenting it, you re-feel the injury. And you re-hurt yourself. The Hebrew Talmud says that a person who bears a grudge is Like one who, having cut one hand while handling a knife, avenges himself by stabbing the other hand.
Norman Vincent Peale
Just as we may learn from our successes (how to do it) so also can we learn from our mistakes (how not to do it). It just isn't in the cards that anybody should get by forever without making mistakes and perhaps sometimes making costly ones.
Norman Vincent Peale
Think, the successful idea is always in your mind. Think it out.
Norman Vincent Peale
Believe it is possible to solve your problem. Tremendous things happen to the believer. So believe the answer will come. It will.
Norman Vincent Peale
Be an all-out, not a hold-out.
Norman Vincent Peale
Think enthusiastically about everything but especially about your job. If you do so, you'll put a touch of glory in your life. If you love your job with enthusiasm, you'll shake it to pieces.
Norman Vincent Peale
There are some things you can't learn from others. You have to pass through the fire.
Norman Vincent Peale
In adversity keep motivated, for often the best comes from difficulty.
Norman Vincent Peale
God is with me, helping me.
Norman Vincent Peale
When you keep asserting that things are going to work out well, that you can do the job, that you will not have a flat tire, that you will get there on time, by talking up good results you invoke the law of positive effects and good results occur. Things do turn out well.
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
Stress the thought of plenty. Thoughts of plenty help create plenty.
Norman Vincent Peale
The word no denotes a shutting of the door. It means failure, defeat, delay. But spell in backwards and take new hope, for backwards it spells on.
Norman Vincent Peale
One of the basic laws of human existence is: find yourself, know yourself, be yourself.
Norman Vincent Peale
Stand up to an obstacle. Just stand up to it, that's all, and don't give way under it, and it will finally break. You will break it. Something has to break, and it won't be you, it will be the obstacle.
Norman Vincent Peale
Believe that all the resources you need are in your mind. That is a formula that really works.
