Summary: The Positive Principle Keeps Going On and On Today and Alway
Review: Dr. Norman Vincent Peale is author of 46 books including his bestseller 'The Power of Positive Thinking.' Most all the other books are practically on this subject. Why he's so compelled into this practice is his purpose to tell others of God's Awesome Power comes from every good thought. That's the power of miracles. In the 12 specific ways to keep the Positive Principle going, Dr. Peale shows you how to sustain and hold onto that power. By using the Positive Principle it all start with the seven (7) magic words...Remember...Don't be afraid, just remember these seven (7) magic words-"I can do all things through Christ...." Believe in the miracle of change, and let Jesus take charge of your own mind and heart.
Dr. Peale also takes a new look at the word imPOSSIBLE without the IM attached. He relates of others the way they apporached the Positive Principle to reshape their lives. These people became the living miracles of God's Principle. Among those who succeed were Claude Bristol, author of 'The Magic of Believing,' Legson Kayira overcame obstacles over 3000 miles from one continent to another and wrote 'The Looming Shadow.' And the great salesman, Zig Ziglar, author of 'See You At The Top.' These men overcame the odds and came out on top of their greatest challenge. It's no secret to those who believe...do you? Just have faith...nothing shall be impossible to you. Hold onto the thought that nothing can get you down. Always think up! Put your problems into God's Hands and leave them there. He will take care of you and bring things out right. Love cancels out gloomy, negative thoughts. Inspiration and Motivation are like nutrition. You need it everyday. Just a simple prayer has the power you need. Just Believe. Believe God will always make a way where there is no way. Don't ever give up. Keep on trying. You can cope with anything, God will see you through anything, so stay close to Him. Always Believe you can. Remember Thomas Edison's words, "If we did all the things we are capable of doing we would literally astonish ourselves." The power of Faith overcomes difficulties. All it takes is the grain of a mustard seed. Seek until you get a certainty of The Presence. A Great Someone is with you always. You're Never alone. Stay in Positive Thinking then miracles will start happening. Keep on going strong. Dr. Peale wants to hear from his readers so write him at c/o Foundation for Christian Living, Pawling, N.Y. 12564.

Summary: Excellent and Encouraging
Review: On the second page of the book, Dr. Peale tells us that "...inspiration and motivation are exactly like nutrition. You have to keep on taking it daily, in healthy doses." He provides a strong dose in this wonderful book. He goes on to describe the importance of having an intense passion for what one does as well as for life in general. He encourages his readers to get outside themselves by getting involved in the lives of other people. A struggle is necessary if one is to become strong he reminds us.
He uses the word "intense" to emphasize how vital it is to be fully alive. He couples it with prayer, desire, and belief.
One of the common themes found in many of his writings is here again in this book, that being creative visualization.
He tells us that things are not what always what they appear to be. Dr. Peale mentions the fact that some things which seem small, can actually be significant events.
His chapter on persistence is a strong one.
He reassures us that God promises guidance to those who ask Him.
There are numerous illustrations of overcoming negative situations, encounters, experiences, and people. Read this book! It will help you live a more fuller, meaningful life.
