More quotes by Norman Vincent Peale
When fate throws a dagger at you, there are ways to catch it. If you catch it by the blade, you can harm yourself. But if you catch it by the handle, you can use it to help you fight through the obstacles ahead.
Norman Vincent Peale
Do not build up obstacles in your imagination.
Norman Vincent Peale
The greatest secret for eliminating the infirmity complex, which is another term for deep and profound self-doubt, is to fill your mind to overflowing faith. Develop a tremendous faith in God and that will give you a humble yet soundly realistic faith in yourself.
Norman Vincent Peale
Always maintain hopefulness, especially when the going is hard.
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 wish is an attitude of mind to which wings have been attached. You wish and you dream, and your whole nature focuses to bring your wishes and dreams to pass.
Norman Vincent Peale
You can have peace of mind, improved health and an ever-increasing flow of energy. Life can be full of joy and satisfaction.
Norman Vincent Peale
God never made anyone else exactly like you, and he never will again. Thank him for yourself and then for all the rest of his glorious handiwork.
Norman Vincent Peale
Promise yourself success at the beginning of each day, and you'll be surprised how often things will turn out that way.
Norman Vincent Peale
Never say anything to hurt anyone. Moreover . . . refrain from double talk, from shrewd and canny remarks that are designed to advance our interests at someone's disadvantage. We are to turn our back upon evil, and in every way possible, do good, help people and bring blessings into their lives.
Norman Vincent Peale
No one can ever overcome anything until his thoughts are creative and positive.
Norman Vincent Peale
When you become detached mentally from yourself and concentrate on helping other people with their difficulties, you will be able to cope with your own more effectively. Somehow, the act of self - giving is a personal power - releasing factor.
Norman Vincent Peale
They are inherently good - the bad reactions aren't basic. Every human being is a child of God and has more good in him than evil - but circumstances and associates can step up the bad and reduce the good. I've got great faith in the essential fairness and decency - you may say goodness - of the human being.
Norman Vincent Peale
I truly believe that if we keep telling the Christmas story, singing the Christmas songs, and living the Christmas spirit, we can bring joy and happiness and peace to this world.
Norman Vincent Peale
Your enthusiasm will be infectious, stimulating and attractive to others. They will love you for it They will go for you and with you
Norman Vincent Peale
Americans are so tense and keyed up that it is impossible even to put them to sleep with a sermon.
Norman Vincent Peale
Learn from both your mistakes and successes because if you learn only from your mistakes you will only learn more errors
Norman Vincent Peale
I firmly believe that when you die you will enter immediately into another life. They who have gone before us are alive in one form of life and we in another.
Norman Vincent Peale
If you can only believe! If you will only believe! Then nothing, nothing, will be impossible for you! That is the truth and the Gospel, and it is wonderful. It's the good news.
Norman Vincent Peale
Stand up to your obstacles and do something about them. You will find that they haven't half the strength you think they have.
Norman Vincent Peale
