More quotes by Norman Vincent Peale

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

Norman Vincent Peale
The big question isn't whether you have problems the all-important factor is your attitude toward problems. How you think of the problem is more important than the problem itself.
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
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
Hold an image of the life you want, and that image will become fact.
Norman Vincent Peale
The right kind of fear will keep us from doing wrong. The rough is only mental - it is rough only because your think it is.
Norman Vincent Peale
Even if you may be down to the worst, the best is potentially within you. You only have to find it, release it, and rise up with it. This requires courage and character, to be sure, but the main requirement is faith. Cultivate faith and you will have the necessary courage and character.
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
Whenever a negative thought concerning your personal power comes to mind, deliberately voice a positive thought to cancel it out.
Norman Vincent Peale
