The Power of Positive Thinking

Norman Vincent Peale

Our brain is shaped by our minds, even if minds are only a network of thought and the brain exists in physical space. It’s not complicated at all. If so, negative thoughts should, in time, lead to anxiety and failures, and positive ones should instill a person with just enough energy to lead a happy and successful life. But you know that already, don’t you? After all, ever since the end of World War II, there’s never been a shortage of books, all of which state pretty much the same, and there’s a good chance that you have probably heard of—and even read—at least a few of these books. Well, The Power of Positive Thinking is the book that started the trend. First published in 1952, both scholars and health experts negatively reviewed the book, which was embraced almost immediately by millions of people around the world. They found in it a set of instructions for an utterly different way to live their lives, not another mere self-help guide à la Napoleon Hill's "Think and Grow Rich."
