Introduction
People sometimes face severe crises and difficult situations. In this book, you will discover the required attitude in which is always "positive," needed to conquer every limitation in life that has had one point in our lives, taken the shape of stumbling blocks, limiting us from achieving success in our careers, relationships with friends, marriage, in our spiritual experience, etc.
There is always help when we let go and let God take over; that's why he gave us his promise, which says that "I CAN DO ALL THINGS THROUGH CHRIST."
My prayer is that you will find grace as you allow these seven words to supply the strength required in every circumstance.
Chapter 1
7 Let Seven Magic Words Change Your Life
Do you want to erase failure? Increase your strength? Eliminate fear? Here is the formula condensed from the positive principle.
Amazing indeed is the power of words to affect persons and situations. William Lyon Phelps, famed writer and professor of English, said the ten greatest words in the English language are found in a familiar statement from Hamlet: "To be or not to be, that is the question." Can hardly deny that those words do contain a solemn and far-reaching thought about personal destiny.
A well-known Shakespearean actor once declared that the greatest sentence is an eight-word line from an old spiritual: "Nobody knows the trouble I've seen, glory hallelujah!" That a victory over trouble, however gigantic, when accomplished, is certainly worthy of an alleluia!
I once spoke on the same program at a convent with a man who delivered a compelling talk in what asserted that the success of any business or enterprise may be explained by a six-word formula. He traced the history of a number of businesses and showed how they owed their success to having carried out the creative idea in this six-word expression: "Find a need and fill it."
But there is a seven-word combination that has perhaps affected more people than any other statement ever made. It has demonstrated the amazing power to erase failure, increase strength, eliminate fear, and overcome self-doubt. It will help any individual become a more successful human being in the top meaning of that term. Indeed, these seven words have the incredible power to make you everything you ever wanted to be when they are applied in depth. And that seven-word formula is this: "I can do all things through Christ" (Philippians 4:13). In those seven magic words is your formula for inspiration, power, motivation, and the ability to keep it going.
If you feel we are overstating the facts, or if you doubt the power of these seven words to change lives and motivate careers, read carefully the dramatic true story that follows. Then ponder the fact that whatever can happen to one person can happen to another.
One night, a speech I was delivering in Danville, Virginia, was carried live on radio to a wide area in Virginia and North Carolina. While driving his car through Raleigh, George Shinn turned in. He later called us at the Peale Center to ask that our representative come to see him. Following that interview, he sent his executive assistant to inspect our headquarters in Pawling, N.Y.
George Shinn received a favorable report on the objectives and activities of Peale Center nonprofit ministry, which distributes 14 million items of Christian literature yearly.
This was how I met George Shinn, an attractive young man whose life story is a dramatic illustration of how religious commitment, strong motivation, and innovative thinking can indeed make something remarkable of a human being.
A few years earlier, Mr. Shinn and his mother were hard put to make ends meet. The father had died, and the family was in debt. His mother, obviously a remarkable woman, pumped gasoline, was a check-out clerk in a supermarket, and worked as a telephone operator. George washed cars, worked in a bakery, and later in a cotton mill. At one period, he wore clothes other people handed down. George graduated from high school, but his grades were "pretty low," he modestly remembers. He had to attend summer school to secure his diploma. He realized, poor as he was, that he needed more education, so he entered a business college, where he worked as a janitor in exchange for his tuition.
