About this Quote

This quote by Norman Vincent Peale is emphasizing the power of repetition. It suggests that when we duplicate a thought or action, it eventually becomes a practice. This practice, if duplicated frequently enough, can become an automatic reflex. This indicates that the idea or action ends up being so ingrained in our minds that it is done without mindful idea. This quote is a reminder of the importance of repeating in our lives. It suggests that if we wish to achieve something, we should be willing to duplicate the exact same thought or action until it becomes a routine. This practice will then end up being an automatic reflex, allowing us to attain our goals without having to think about it. Repeating is a powerful tool that can help us to attain our goals and produce positive routines.
