How to Stop Worrying and Start Living - Dale Carnegie
      #106167 - 27/04/2008 12:15

Here's a book I found in the library but am now tempted to go out and buy my own copy:

How to Stop Worrying and Start Living by Dale Carnegie

This book has destroyed my constant negativity and replaced it with a positive grip on life. Written over 50 years ago, the advice within its pages is absolutely relevant to today’s ‘have it all now!’ society.
Carnegie cites hundreds of examples illustrating how a change of mental attitude will free up energy wasted on worry and produce peace of mind and happiness.
Don’t be put off by the slightly old-fashioned American case studies but concentrate on the little mottos and mantras at the end of each section. They’ve given me a new found confidence to face the world without fear.

I am a great believer in "Positive Thinking". Yes, I hit rock bottom now and again,and of late my OH and I have had good reason,but who doesn't?
It is the likes of Dale Carnegie who have an impact on many people,and I encourage everyone to read at least one of his books.
Apart from all the positive thoughts and wishes coming from the forum,I believe that it is my OH and mine's determination to reach a "positive" conclusion to our problem that brought it to a swift and sudden end. Re:-"Share our happiness" thread
Perhaps we too had a submerged "positive" thought in our heads, as it's been quite some time since I have read one of his books. Strangely enough, I still have them,so a re-read might be in order, to re-charge the "positive" side of my being.!!
