Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill



Napoleon Hill wrote Think and Grow Rich in 1937. It's still widely read today and highly recommended for network marketers. I first read Think and Grow Rich in 1997, shortly after starting my networking career.

Thinking back on it now, there are similarities to The Secret. I guess everything old is new again - Or maybe Napoleon Hill's ideas never went out of style.

Napoleon Hill dedicates a chapter to "the power of definite desire" and creating a plan to achieve it. He writes, "The object of this book is to help all who seek it, to learn the art of changing their minds from FAILURE CONSCIOUSNESS to SUCCESS CONSCIOUSNESS."

There's no magic here. People who have a dream and turn it into a goal, can achieve amazing things.
