5.0 out of 5 stars This book literally turns failure into success., January 19, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: Power of Positive Thinking (Special Anniversary) (Hardcover)

Norman Vincent Peale virtually coined the phrase "positive thinking" which he used as a synonym for faith and for the power of belief. In friendly, down-to-earth style, and with a sincerity that makes the pages glow, the author shows how to triumph over self-doubt, fear, and illness, but doesn't stop there. He goes on to show how anyone in any circumstances can achieve anything to which they aspire -- whether health, longevity, business success -- or all three! Peale, by the way, "proved his pudding" by himself becoming an eminently respected public figure, living to the age of 92, and achieving multi-millionaire status.This book has helped countless numbers of people achieve their dreams
