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.

More quotes by Norman Vincent Peale
Religion does not blithely promise some sort of no-trouble, no-problem, no-poverty world but rather a spirit, a power, an enthusiasm that endows everyone with the ability to overcome any and all of it.
Norman Vincent Peale
Scatter good will and love and prayers all around, everywhere, and you will be astonished, not only by what it does for other people, but how it comes back to you in generous abundance.
Norman Vincent Peale
The positive thinker, on the contrary, constantly sends out positive thoughts, together with vital mental images of hope, optimism and creativity. He therefore activates the world around him positively and strongly tends to draw back to himself positive results. This, too, is a basic law of mind action.
Norman Vincent Peale
Thoughts and words form your mental image. And since we become what we picture be sure your thoughts and words express prosperity and blessing rather than poverty and defeat.
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
Let go and let God. Let Him take over your life and run it. He knows how.
Norman Vincent Peale
Cultivate will power, that massive creative force that God the creator built into you. Do not let it remain flabby but strengthen it by use and exercise.
Norman Vincent Peale
I place this day, my life, my loved ones, my work in the Lord's hands. There is no harm in the Lord's hands, only good. Whatever happens, whatever results, if I am in the Lord's hands it is the Lord's will and it is good.
Norman Vincent Peale
Any fact facing us is not as important as our attitude toward it, for that determines our success or failure. The way you think about a fact may defeat you before you ever do anything about it. You are overcome by the fact because you think you are.
Norman Vincent Peale
To cure worry, spend fifteen minutes daily filling your mind full of God. Worry is just a very bad mental habit. You can change any habit with God's help.
Norman Vincent Peale
Nobody ever mastered any skill except through intensive persistent and intelligent practice.
Norman Vincent Peale
Dwelling on negative thoughts is like fertilizing weeds.
Norman Vincent Peale
Life's blows cannot break a person whose spirit is warmed at the fire of enthusiasm.
Norman Vincent Peale
The longer I live the more I am convinced that neither age nor circumstance needs to deprive us of energy and vitality. We are at last awakening to the close relationship between religion and health. . . .our physical condition is determined very largely by our emotional condition, and our emotional life is profoundly regulated by our thought life.
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
There are no circumstances in your life where God will not stand will not stand with you and help you, no matter what the trouble may be.
Norman Vincent Peale
If you expect the best, you will be the best. Learn to use one of the most powerful laws in this world change your mental habits to belief instead of disbelief. Learn to expect, not to doubt. In so doing, you bring everything into the realm of possibility.
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
Put God to work for you and maximize your potential in our divinely ordered capitalist system.
Norman Vincent Peale
Don't tense up no matter what, for you only close off creative power when you do.
Norman Vincent Peale
