Additional quotes by Norman Vincent Peale

We continually remember before our God and Father your work produced by faith, your labor prompted by love, and your endurance inspired by hope in our LORD Jesus Christ. 1 THESSALONIANS 1:3 OCTOBER 9 To be a true optimist, you have to be rugged and tough in mind. An optimist is a person who believes in a good outcome even when he can’t yet see it. He is a person who believes in a greater day when there is yet no evidence of it. He is one who believes in his own future when he can’t see much possibility in it. A lot of people live under a cloud. But up above the clouds, the sun is always shining. Down here, on the surface of the earth, groping around in the shadows under a low ceiling, a person may not feel optimistic. But you ought to begin to practice optimism. Send up into the mass of dark clouds bright, powerful optimistic thoughts, a bright optimistic faith. By so doing, you can actually dissipate the clouds and have an entirely different life. Constantly send up into the overcast sky that is blanketing your mind bright thoughts of faith, love, hope, thoughts of God, thoughts about the greatness of life.

Las actitudes son más importantes que los hechos. Ningún hecho, entre todos los que enfrentamos, por arduo o irremediable que parezca, es tan importante como nuestra actitud hacia él. Tu forma de concebir un hecho puede arruinarte antes siquiera de que hagas nada al respecto. Así, podrías permitir que un suceso te abrueme incluso antes de enfrentarlo. Por otro lado, un patrón de pensamiento seguro y optimista puede modificar o trascender ese hecho por completo.
