I read this book in the spring of 1990. It saved my life. At the time I was a junkie, in jail, and facing charges of armed robbery. I had been to rehabs, NA, AA, church, you name it. Nothing worked. What this book did was to convince me that I really could take control of my life and become the person that I always wanted to be. I actually quit smoking half way through the book to prove to myself that I could. I got out of prison in the Summer of 1994. I have been drug, alcohol, and cigarette free ever since I read the book. Dr. Peale saved my life. Today, I have a wonderful family, a thriving business, and I am a respected member of my community. I couldn't have done it if Dr. Peale hadn't convinced me that I could. I wish that I could have thanked him personally, but he has passed on. The best way to pay my respects is to pass on my experience.Read the book and discover the power within to become everything that you ever wanted.Best of luck,Mark Owens
In 1990, this was just one of three great books that turned my life from a tradgedy to success. Back in 1990, I had a huge business that came crashing down. I was jobless and pennyless. Dr Peale's excellent book and a book that I had read many years before turned my life around. Within weeks, I had found a brand new opportunity and within months my income was at a all time personal high. The other two books? They were "Think and Grow Rich" by Napolean Hill and More Wealth without Risk" by Charles Givens. I obviously highly endorse all three. The priciples work. Please don't make the same mistake I did--read it and pack it away! Read the books, take good notes, apply and reread at once a year. It's very true that what you don't use, you'll lose. I know it happened to me.
Everybody wants to either change or improve something in their life. Whatever your goal, this is the book that will help you succeed.I have read many of Dr. Peale books. This one especially will drive you to where you want to be in life. Whether it is to find your true self, or that little push you need to complete your degree. You will find the help you need here. It will give you to peace of mind, courage, happiness, and the satisfaction you seek. My advise, read, apply, and GO!!!
Here is a concise, clear, and precise book on the power of thought, devoid of the "new-agey" hocus-pocus that is so prevelant today. Dr. Peale writes in a straightforward manner. Another good reason to get this book? Pat Robertson, Jerry Falwell, and the Christian "Right" dislike Peale and his work, referring to it as "heretical." A rule of thumb, if those guys hate it, the rest of us will love it...
My life has been greatly enriched by the legacy of Dr. Peale! Encouragement comes about from reading how other people have successfully faced their challenges and with God's help overcome them. In his collection, Dr. Peale provides such examples. His material is always relevant as the principles he teaches are timeless.Take the story of Dwight D. Eisenhower. He says his mother was the most influential person in his life and one of the things she taught him that stayed with him was to take the had you're dealt in life and work with it. By doing that things will turn out right. I see people who have come completely unglued because things didn't go their way. They used their energy up fussing over matters that would not change. If Eisenhower had done that we may have never known his name.
Dr. Peale's book "You Can If You Think You Can" is a brillent reminder for us in being consciously aware of what thinking patterns we focus on during our waking hours. This book is recommeded for anyone who may be going through difficult times and needs some place to start to get back on track. It is also a brush up on our thought process for the rest of us.
Peale is the master at comprehensively and clearly describing the process of achieving results through spirituality and positive thinking. Read everyone of his books and the information will be embedded into your soul and will literally push you toward success. The power of the human being is incredible and his books are vthe guide to apping into this immense force. Go and discover genuine and lasting success and peace in your precious life.
A wonderful book....You can open it to any page and get into it very quickly. Dr. Peale tells us all the things we need to do to acheive our heart's fondest desires. Though written more than 25 years ago, the advice and tools he offers are timeless. Start reading and you will be "hooked"! I loved this book..you will too...
