Norman Vincent Peale has helped millions to achieve success and happiness with THE POWER OF POSITIVE THINKING
The Greatest Inspirational Bestseller Of Our Time
Of course people are tired simply because they are not interested in anything. Nothing ever moves them deeply. To some people it makes no difference what’s going on or how things go. Their personal concerns are superior even to all crises in history. Nothing makes any real difference to them except their own little worries, their desires, and their hates. They wear themselves out stewing around about a lot of inconsequential things that amount to nothing. So they become tired. They even become sick. The surest way not to become tired is to lose yourself into something in which you have a profound conviction.
This is the book I picked up today to help inspire me and get me out of my uncreative slump. With chapter heads such as, How to have constant energy and How to break the worry habit, I was hooked. Unfortunately, I am on Chapter 7 and I am not feeling inspired. Yet the above excerpt makes sense. But I don’t really think it applies to me. I thought somebody would find it inspirational. I’ve known many people who have toxic outlooks on life simply because they are uninterested in what is happening around them. This depresses me because there is so much out there to see and experience. In the past, I have been overcome with my own problems and unable to see the many things I have to be thankful for. But I like to believe that those moments were just fleeting. Right now I am just in a funk and lucky for me I do recognize this for what it is.
