More quotes by Norman Vincent Peale
No one can ever overcome anything until his thoughts are creative and positive.
Norman Vincent Peale
The negative principle negates. The positive principle creates. The negative principle doubts. The positive principle believes. The negative principle accepts defeat. The positive principle goes for victory.
Norman Vincent Peale
We struggle with the complexities and avoid the simplicities.
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
Think health, eat sparingly, exercise regularly, walk a lot, and think positively about yourself.
Norman Vincent Peale
The greatest measure of a human being isn't how he handles himself when things are going well, but how he handles himself when things are going badly, when defeat comes.
Norman Vincent Peale
Lots of people limit their possibilities by giving up easily. Never tell yourself this is too much for me. It's no use. I can't go on. If you do you're licked, and by your own thinking too. Keep believing and keep on keeping on.
Norman Vincent Peale
One person can make a difference. You don't have to be a big shot. You don't have to have a lot of influence. You just have to have faith in your power to change things.
Norman Vincent Peale
The one person who most blocks you from a full, happy, and successful life is you. They are therefore wise who make themselves an asset. We can be our own worst enemies or best friends. We can be a source of trouble or a cure for trouble. So if you feel empty, as many do, start by getting free from yourself as a first stop to vibrant living.
Norman Vincent Peale
If you visualize a failure, you tend to create the conditions that produce failure. Visualize-believe-and thank God in advance.
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
The more you venture to live greatly, the more you will find within you what it takes to get on top of the things and stay there.
Norman Vincent Peale
One of the simplest things about all facts of life is that to get where you want to go, you must keep on keeping on.
Norman Vincent Peale
Listen for the magic word of motivation and you will hear it. And then? Well, the sky is the limit!
Norman Vincent Peale
We are all capable of greater things than we realize.
Norman Vincent Peale
If I wanted to become a tramp, I would seek information and advice from the most successful tramp I could find. If I wanted to become a failure, I would seek advice from people who have never succeeded. If I wanted to succeed in all things, I would look around me for those who are succeeding, and do as they have done.
Norman Vincent Peale
No matter how many worries and anxieties harass you, remember always that they are removable. Enthusiasm with its immense mental and spiritual power can cancel out all fear.
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
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
Think excitement, talk excitement, act out excitement, and you are bound to become an excited person.
Norman Vincent Peale
