Dr. Norman Vincent Peale advised that you should affirm: “I expect the best and with God’s help will attain the best” at least ten times a day—and that this practice will bring the best to you.

Lord God, I expect the best and with Your help will attain the best!

Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up.—James 4:10 (NIV)
