I ran across Dr. Abbott's website by chance at a time when life was very tough and I was really low. Reading and listening to these short messages changed the way I was thinking and this, in turn, changed my life. I have often thought how much I would like to say thank you to Dr. Abbott. I am very happy to have these messages on my Kindle to boost my positive thinking any time I need it. Thank you, Dr. Abbott! Kindle Customer
Over a year ago I was at a low point with depression. I searched the web for resources on how to change my negative thoughts to positive thoughts. I felt like every where I went there was so much negative talking from people I work with to family and worst of all was the news channels. I found the positive thinking web site. After downloading all the podcasts onto my mp3 player I flooded my mind with his powerful positive thoughts. I soon had people asking me how I was staying calm and not complaining about things I use to. I would tell them about Dr. Dave and his website of positive thoughts and positive graphics. Then a few months ago I fell back into negative thinking again, its easy do when you are bomb barred with negativity all around. I don't use my facebook all that much but I have Dr. Daves positive thinking facebook page. The other day I commented on a positive graphic that made me realize I had let the negative back in thoughts. That's when I also found that his book was available on the kindle. I am so thrilled to have his book close in hand to open the pages and stay on track with positive thinking. It really makes a difference on my life and people I am around. Thank you Dr. Dave for positive words to help flood my thoughts to positive ones they also influences the people around me. Kindle Customer

Limiting thoughts are a disguised form of negation. They are a way that I say no to life while pretending that life is saying no to me. Limitations are plausible self-deceptions.

There are no unchangeable or untouchable areas in your life. There are only areas in your mind where you accept the idea that change is impossible. It's possible to initiate positive change in any area. You do it by making small changes in the way that you think. New ways of thinking become new ways of living. Eventually the small changes accumulate into a mountain of change.Owner's Manual For Your Mind
Each new beginning creates a new ending. When you make a small change, you move in a new direction, and the outcome of your life changes as well. You have an infinite number of lives that you can live. Nothing is unchangeable. Each time you make a new start, you make a new life with a new ending. Owner's Manual For Your Mind
Achievers are not more talented or brilliant than those who don't reach their dreams. However, they possess one critical quality that the rest of the world lacks. They are endlessly persistent in the pursuit of their dreams.Owner's Manual For Your Mind
The probability of making a positive change is inversely proportional to its size. Major changes are tough, and the probability of success in a single massive attempt is low. Small changes are always possible, and there is a high probability of success on the first attempt. Break large changes down into a series of smaller ones so the probabilities are in your favor.Owner's Manual For Your Mind
At the moment of change, there is a shift in your beliefs about who you are and what you can do with your life.Owner's Manual For Your Mind
LEARN HOW TO PROGRAM YOUR MIND WITH A POSITIVE OPERATING SYSTEM. If you don’t program your mind, other people will. Whether you like it or not, you are engaged in mortal mental combat, and your mind is ground zero. If you let your culture, the media, the government, and politicians do the programming, you will be in real trouble. You will not be running your own mind. They will be running it. You will not be living your dreams. You will be living theirs.The Programmer's Manual for Your Mind is now available in ebook format at Amazon, iTunes, Kobo and Barnes and Noble.

Positive thinking does not make your life perfect. It does not make all your problems disappear or prevent serious illness and accidents. Nevertheless, positive thinking makes your life immeasurably better. No amount of positive thinking takes something bad and turns it into something good; however, positive thinking turns it into something better.Programmer's Manual For Your Mind
Your brain is an affirming machine that affirms the negative just as easily as the positive. It affirms the good, the bad, and ugly with equal facility.Programmer's Manual For Your Mind
Your brain is positive about many things that are factually untrue. And when you are positive about the wrong things, positive thinking gets you into trouble.Programmer's Manual For Your Mind

GET IN AGREEMENT WITH GOD ABOUT WHO YOU ARE AND WHAT YOU CAN DO WITH YOUR LIFE. Jesus said, "As you believe, so shall it be done unto you." Jesus was talking about positive expectations.

LEARN HOW TO MAX OUT ON GOD'S LOVE. When your mind is full of thoughts consistent with God's love, your thoughts are healthy, and your mind is exactly the way God means for it to be.

Real Power: Maxing Out on God's Love is now available in ebook format at Amazon, iTunes, Kobo and Barnes and Noble. REAL POWER IS AVAILABLE TODAY WHEN YOU MAX OUT ON GOD'S LOVE.
The most important fact in the universe is that God loves and accepts you the way you are, but He loves you too much to let you stay that way. He loves you from the top of your head to the tip of your toes, and it does not get any better than that. Real Power: Maxing Out On God's Love
Real power happens when you max out on God's love. It transforms your rational mind and heals your damaged emotions. Nothing is more powerful than God's love. When all else fails, when the hand of flesh falls limp, God's love remains unfettered and unstoppable. When his love comes in the front door, misery, despair, and depression head for the emergency exit.Real Power: Maxing Out On God's Love
God's love is real power. His love has enough power to heal your heart and transform your mind. Nothing can do what God's love can, and nothing can do it was well. The positive effects last for eternity. You have a new mind and healed emotions, and the cure lasts forever.Real Power: Maxing Out On God's Love

Life is a test, and if you don't quit, you pass the test. Quantum Self-Talk Black Book
Too many people have a false model for change. They try to change their life by trying to change their life, and that is the recipe for failure. They are skipping all the steps that make change possible. First you must change the way you think. You must have new quantum beliefs that take you to the next level.Quantum Self-Talk Black Book
Nothing gradual happens in the quantum life. You jump from one level to the next with each new quantum belief. That is exactly what Jesus meant when he said, "As you believe, so shall it be done unto you." He was not tweaking your life. He was tranforming it to a new level.Quantum Self-Talk Black Book
All beliefs are not created equal. Lots of beliefs keep you exactly where you are and maintain you in a holding pattern.Quantum Self-Talk Black Book
Change takes a long time because people take such a long time getting ready.Quantum Self-Talk Black Book
BANISH THE WORD IMPOSSIBLE FROM YOUR MIND. Many people believe change is impossible. Most of the time they are confusing personality with behavior. The basic human personality is relatively constant over time, but behavior can and does change. Personal change happens when people change the way they think. I have numerous patients formerly addicted to meth, cocaine, heroine, and alcohol, who escaped their addictions without ever going to rehab. They simply arrived at a point where they no longer wanted to be prisoners of their addictions. They changed their belief about who they are and what they can do, and they became a different person who was chemical free. Positive Self-Talk Yellow Book is now available in ebook format at Amazon, iTunes, Kobo and Barnes and Noble. YOU HAVE THE POWER TO CHANGE THE WAY YOU THINK AND FEEL TODAY.
It really does matter what you say when you talk to your mind. The actual anatomy and physiology of the brain changes in response to what you put into your mind. Change is slow, but it is continuous, and what gets into your mind makes a massive difference in the direction and outcome of your life. Positive Self-Talk Yellow Book
You need to change the way you think about everything. When you look at your past, you need to change the way you think. When you look at the present, you need to change the way you think. When you look at the future, you need to change the way you think.Positive Self-Talk Yellow Book
Your brain lives in a use it or lose it world.Positive Self-Talk Yellow Book
Change is always possible, and you are the one who makes it happen. You are the only one who can change your life, because you are the only one who can change the way you think.Positive Self-Talk Yellow Book

LEARN HOW TO CONTROL THE STORM OF THOUGHTS BLOWING THROUGH YOUR MIND. Life consists mainly of the storm of thoughts that blow through your mind. The events of life can be trivial, tragic, and even monumental in nature, but the events themselves have little power. It’s the storm of thoughts about those events that controls our lives. Those thoughts are the battleground where you come to your agreement with life. Those thoughts define who you are and what you can do. Positive Self-Talk Gold Book is now available in ebook format at Amazon, iTunes, Kobo and Barnes and Noble. IT'S TIME TO MAKE A POSITIVE WIND BLOW THROUGH YOUR MIND WITH POSITIVE SELF-TALK FROM DR. DAVE.
Life consists mainly of the storm of thoughts that blow through your mind. The events of life can be trivial, tragic, and even monumental in nature, but the events themselves have little power. It's the storm of thoughts about those events that controls our lives. Positive Self-Talk Gold Book
When a storm of thoughts begins its assault, damage control should be your highest priority. Most storms are not survival storms unless you transform them into a survival situation by focusing relentlessly on them. When you focus on a mental storm, you increase its power.Positive Self-Talk Gold Book
Remember the Rule of Storms: Storms pass. They do not come to stay. If you do not fight against them, if you refuse to engage them, it won't be long before the storm moves on.Positive Self-Talk Gold Book
I have three cardinal rules for managing storms of the mind. First, avoid storms whenever possible. Don't go there. Second, don't engage whenever possible. Third, hold position quietly and fearlessly while waiting for the storm to pass.Positive Self-Talk Gold Book
You cannot avoid all of the storms of the mind, but you can avoid most of them by not going where storms happen.Positive Self-Talk Gold Book
LEARN TO SPEAK THE LANGUAGE OF THE MIND. Your brain speaks to you in its own language, and if you speak to it in the same way, it immediately responds in a powerful fashion. That’s why change proceeds most rapidly when you talk to yourself using the language of the mind. If you don’t speak the language of the mind, you may as well stop talking until you learn it. Positive Self-Talk Silver Book is now available in ebook format at Amazon, iTunes, Kobo and Barnes and Noble. YOUR MIND IS WAITING TO HEAR FROM YOU, SO SEND IT A POSITIVE MESSAGE TODAY.
You can change who you are by changing what you say when you talk to your mind. Just be sure you are speaking in a language that your mind understands. Positive Self-Talk Silver Book
The three most powerful components of the language of the mind are images, sounds, and emotions.Positive Self-Talk Silver Book
Most people try to communicate with their mind using words, which is extremely inefficient. Positive Self-Talk Silver Book
The language of the mind is not a mystery. It consists of visual and auditory inputs mixed with a variable amount of emotional glue. Strong auditory and visual inputs in combination wtih compelling emotion pass straight into your mind.Positive Self-Talk Silver Book
Emotion is the super glue of the brain. Great ideas pass through your mind at the speed of light, but none of them stick unless there is a strong dose of emotion attached to the idea.Positive Self-Talk Silver Book
IT'S TIME TO START LIVING AS IF YOU ARE A GREAT PERSON. Living small serves no great purpose. Living as if you are a great person is a powerful idea that changes lives, and those who take it seriously change their world. Living as if you are great means you live as if your dreams are possible and work each day to make them happen. You act as if you cannot fail. If you ever become great, it will be because you think great thoughts, repeat great self-talk, have great expectations, and act as if you cannot fail. Positive Self-Talk Purple Book is now available in ebook format at Amazon, iTunes, Kobo and Barnes and Noble. TODAY IS A GOOD DAY TO START LIVING AS IF YOU ARE A GREAT PERSON.
When you change your expectations, you change your life. Positive Self-Talk Purple Book
Positive self-talk does not work forever. It works a day at a time. If you don't repeat positive self-talk every day, it will not work, because every day you must build a new bridge to your dreams.Positive Self-Talk Purple Book
If you are repeating the same self-talk today that you did a year ago, something is wrong. If you have the same expectations today that you had a year ago, it's time to make serious changes. If you want to live as if you are a great person, new self-talk and new expectations are in order.Positive Self-Talk Purple Book
Great people have great expectations, and they continually work on their dreams. They believe there is no limit to how good their life can become.Positive Self-Talk Purple Book
Limiting thoughts are a disguised form of negation. They are a way that I say no to life while pretending that life is saying no to me.Positive Self-Talk Purple Book
IMAGINE HOW GOOD YOUR LIFE WOULD BECOME IF YOU HAD A CONSISTENTLY POSITIVE MIND. A persistently positive focus creates a consistently positive mind. The same is true of your self-talk. It must be persistent, positive, and specific to have maximum impact. Lack of persistentce has laid more dreams to rest in the cemetery of failure than any other cause. There is zero chance that you will succeed on your first attempt. If your dreams are great, you will fail again and again on your way to the top. Positive Self-Talk Red Book is now available at Amazon, iTunes, Kobo and Barnes and Noble. DEVELOP A PERSISTENTLY POSITIVE FOCUS TODAY WITH POSITIVE SELF-TALK FROM DR. DAVE.
Your brain is an affirming machine, and it spends all its waking hours affirming things about who you are and what you can do with your life. You brain is positive about everything in your life. It may be wrong, but it is never in doubt.Positive Self Talk Red Booke
Your mind is positive about many things that are simply untrue. It affirms all of your limiting beliefs from the past.Positive Self Talk Red Book
Although your mind is an affirming machine, you don't have to believe everything it says. If you believe everything your mind tells you, it will not be long before you are in trouble. The brain excels in its ability to pump out affirmations, but it's a miserable failure at separating truth from error and the positive from the negative.Positive Self Talk Red Book
When your mind pumps out negative affirmations, it becomes a weapon of mass destruction that ruins your life.Positive Self Talk Red Book
The war for a positive mind is fought on the battlefield of focus.Positive Self Talk Red Book
Dr. Dave is a Positive Mountain Mover and the Encourager In Chief of the Positive Thinking Network. He believes that there are no limits. There are only limiting beliefs.
