Positive Thinking, or Positive Mental Attitude, may be seen as a set of practices broadly intended to promote success in business and life through the inspiration of self-confidence, by any number of means, including repetitive mantras, self-hypnosis, and so on, as outlined in the works by the likes of Dale Carnegie (How to Win Friends and Influence People), Napoleon Hill (Think and Grow Rich), and Norman Vincent Peale (The Power of Positive Thinking). Such beliefs may be seen as having their genesis in the early works of the New Thought movement, such concepts having become entangled with the world of direct sales and multi-level marketing.
