I love the fact that what is used is Scripture. It brought verses to light and saw them in different ways. Who I am is based on how I think, what I think about, and the negative thoughts I allow to take hold in my heart. Short but insightful book!1 person found this helpful

This is essentially a work for Christians. But here is what I gleaned from it:
- "Prayerise, picturise, actualise" (pp. 63-5).
- "Do you ever 'fume' or 'fret'?" (p. 96).
- "Self-knowledge is the beginning of self-correction" (p. 241).
- "easy power" and "correlated power" (p. 243).
Peale mentions dozens of famous people, including Marcus Aurelius and Edison, and endless examples of faith and positive thinking based on his own experience. His argument is that faith is scientific, and will be proven so. The work reflects many of the conversations I have had with Christian psychologists. It is difficult to be pessimistic when surrounded by such optimism. In the words of my late great-grandmother, "Think positive. Always think positive".1 person found this helpful
