The Power of Positive Thinking in Business (eBook, ePUB)

Ten Traits for Maximum Results

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Written in cooperation with the Peale Center, The Power of Positive Thinking in Business takes Dr. Norman Vincent Peale's original and immensely popular model for personal well-being and translates it into an effective business program for developing the ten traits of a positive thinker. Inevitably, performance will rise to new levels when people learn how to overcome negative attitudinal barriers such as fear, lack of confidence, and low self-esteem, and instead assume the traits that characterize a positive thinker -- optimism, determination, patience, and focus. The Power of Positive Thinking in Business encourages people to concentrate on objective, rational thinking instead of self-limiting beliefs and negative self-talk. The result is an increased ability to deal effectively with tough situations and difficult people in both business environments and personal lives. Together, rational thinking and the ten traits of a positive thinker can turn defeatist behavior into productive actions that will overcome the toughest of situations with powerful, positive results.
