    Great! Solid and sound classic advice

    I've used the advice from this book over the past 6 months. it has really helped me to drastically move forward on my own personal life and business. I highly recommend this and any book by Brian Tracy in combination. Apply the advice diligently, a few pieces at a time and test which work for you. consistency is key.

    Norman Vincent Peale changes lives

    God has given us an abundance of wisdom through the Bible. Norman Vincent Peale has highlighted scripture in a way to make God’s word easily applicable in everyday life. I will have my children listen to this, and later I’ll encourage them to also read the book.
