In this book, Norman Vincent Peale will teach the principles of positive thinking and their powerful effect on your daily life. Mr. Peale also gives you exercises to follow to instill these new found habits of positive thought.

I find the very principles to be sound, but it does ramble on a bit. After being pumped up originally in the beginning of the book, I found my excitement starting to wane. I think the book could be a little bit more concise to hold the reader’s attention better. Although this book is inspiring, I have found books by other authors that would sustain your excitement throughout the book. I feel that inspiration comes to me in the state of being excited and if that wanes toward the end of the book, it is not the ideal result.

Although there is some good information in here, I would not recommend this book. I feel you can read a better book with the same information from other authors.
