Fifty years agoIn 1955through all of our dreams can become realities. A gifted and moving storyteller, Schuller offers a personal and inspirational look at the principles that have guided his life and work and explains how they can guide our lives as well. Starting with the message of Don’t Throw Away Tomorrow, he discusses such powerful and universal principles as starting with optimism, choosing positive values, keeping focused, clearing the channels of communication, and—most importantly—looking to the Ultimate Authority. For 50 years Americans have been watching and listening to Schuller’s thoughtful guidance and being inspired by his love of humanity and God. This book is a culmination of that wisdom and love delivered and a tribute to the power of possibility thinking.
