This series, though over 50 years old, is still right on the mark to building a foundation for a persons life. Simple and direct, the principles disclosed here are timeless. Each of the seventeen principles, upon reflection, can and will always be applicable to whatever the current times are. I've worn out the original set of cassettes and have ordered the cd's. One of these cd's playing in the bathroom while getting ready in the morning, is a great way to start the day. If one will listen to the individual lessons, consider how they can apply to the listeners situation and try to implement each one, it will always have a positive effect on said individual. This will take time and commitment on that persons part but the reward, in achievement and self-confidence, will many times over repay the person for the time spent.
The most difficult part of the program is deciding what ones chief major purpose in life is. Everything else is a growth and support system to implement the individual parts of the system in that person.
Like anything in life, make a decision, plan your work, and work your plan. (AND DON't QUIT)

5.0 out of 5 stars Listening to Napoleon Hill evokes many positive thoughts and feelings, February 16, 2009

This CD package includes the wisdom of Napoleon Hill as he says it with his enthusiasm and the right proportion of energy (not like the fake ones who imitate, recycle his thoughts)
When I listened to his voice presenting his pure original Ideas that included the wisdom of the great people that he met in his life; plus his personality that search openly to reach what it seeks, regardless how much effort (if needed) or how much what he was looking for, seamed way bigger than the circumstances and the conditions that he started with. I observed this original, genuine mind speaking and teaching others to move and achieve what they want without the traditional handicaps of fear or worries, just with trust and courage instead. I believe that he will be the only man who initiated and presented this philosophy to the public and no matter how many books or courses are available nowadays, his work is the main source for all of those who are willing to recycle and rephrase his thoughts. And also for some one like myself who like to review and relive the moments that this man opened his mind and spoke sincerely to help others. I wish any of his books or Audio products will affect you positively as they influenced me.

I listened to this 3 times in a row. Absolutely wonderful. I learned more from him than other books I have read or listened to in the last 30 years. Wish I had come across it sooner.
