Have a Big Dream For Your Life

Today, remind yourself that nothing is too good to be true. Your great hopes can be realized. Your most wonderful dreams can come true. All that you really need, you can have. An incredible goodness is operating in your behalf.
If you are living a paltry life, resolve to stop it today. Expect great things to happen. Confidently receive God’s abundant blessings. Do not think lack. Instead think prosperity, abundance, the best of everything. God wants to give it to you, His child, every good thing. Don’t hinder His generosity.
……from Norman Vincent Peale’s Thought Conditioners
