By success, of course, I do not mean that you may become rich, famous, or powerful for that does not, of necessity, represent achievement. Indeed, not infrequently, such individuals represent pathetic failure as persons.

More quotes by Norman Vincent Peale
To go fast, row slowly.
Norman Vincent Peale
The first step is to fill your life with positive faith that will help you through anything. The second step is to start where you are.
Norman Vincent Peale
We live in the midst of the greatest scientific civilization in the history of the world. But the greatest wisdom walking our streets is not in any laboratory scientist, but the wisdom of Jesus Christ.
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
If you want to get somewhere you have to know where you want to go and how to get there. Then never, never, never give up.
Norman Vincent Peale
One of the basic laws of human existence is: find yourself, know yourself, be yourself.
Norman Vincent Peale
Religious faith may very well be considered a science, for it responds invariably to certain formulae. Perform the technique of faith according to the laws which have been proved workable in human experience and you will always get a result of power.
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
Enthusiasm releases the drive to carry you over obstacles and adds significance to all you do.
Norman Vincent Peale
The man who lives for himself is a failure. Even if he gains much wealth, position or fortune, he is still a failure. The man who lives for others has achieved true success. A rich man who consecrates his wealth and his position to the good of humanity is a success.
Norman Vincent Peale
Let a series of happy thoughts run through your mind. They will show on your face.
Norman Vincent Peale
Learn to relax. Your body is precious, as it houses your mind and spirit. Inner peace begins with a relaxed body.
Norman Vincent Peale
A true apology is more than just aknowledgment of a mistake. It is recognition that something you have said or done has damaged a relationship and that you care enough about the relationship to want it repaired and restored.
Norman Vincent Peale
You became a worrier by practicing worry. You can become free of worry by practicing the opposite and stronger habit of faith. With all the strength and perseverance you can command, start practicing faith.
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
Be an all-out, not a hold-out.
Norman Vincent Peale
When we start focusing on things we can do and don't think so much about the things we can't do, things really start to happen
Norman Vincent Peale
And if the mind thinks with a believing attitude one can do amazing things.
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
The how thinker gets problems solved effectively because he wastes no time with futile ifs but goes right to work on the creative how.
Norman Vincent Peale
