Napoleon Hill, maker of millionaires, adviser to the titans of business and industry, and confidant of presidents, started out a long way from the executive boardroom of the White House. He was born into poverty in a one-room log cabin in the mountains of southwest Virginia. Like most who achieved positions of power and influence, his rise to success resulted from many factors. However, unlike most, Napoleon Hill analyzed each critical event, identified the lesson learned, reduced the lessons to basic principles, and organized those principles into a philosophy of personal achievement that could be used by anyone as a guide to creating their own success. This book contains money-making secrets that can change your life. Think and Grow Rich, based on the author's fame Law of Success, represents the distilled wisdom of distinguished men of great wealth and achievement. Andrew Carnegie's magic formula for success was the direct inspiration for this book. Carnegie demonstrated its soundness when his coaching brought fortunes to those young men to whom he had disclosed his secret. This book will teach you that secret --and the secrets-- of other great men like him. It will show you not only what to do, but also how to do it. If you learn and apply the simple basic techniques revealed here, you will have mastered the secret of true and lasting success --and you may have whatever you want in life! The terminology and examples are faithfully refreshed to preclude any obstacles for a new generation of readers.
