Living Life Well

Norman Vincent Peale sums up the purpose of this wonderful book in the foreword when he writes "this book tells how to grow and develop as a creative and effective person and it describes the growth process in a fascinating and persuasive manner." It certainly does! He talks about hearing God in prayer and learning from his fellow travelers on life's journey. Finding one's purpose is the ultimate goal. The author writes "your right calling is just as much from God as is the minister's. It is the call of your destiny, bringing into focus what you are supposed to be and do with your life" (p. 11). The power of having patience and persistence in reaching goals is eloquently addressed in chapter 6. He writes that those two character traits lead to personal growth and that "each new challenge brings another opportunity for both" (p. 31). In chapter 8 the necessities of rhythm and pace are discussed. Best results occur when the process unfolds based on proper timing. The same holds for achievement in human affairs also he notes. There are so many powerful, helpful, practical suggestions in this book I could not list them all without replicating the whole manuscript. My strong advise is "buy it!" It will improve your life if you read it and do what it says.
