5.0 out of 5 stars Basic Principles, outstanding succe$$ March 4, 2000

By Theresa & Mike Brennan

Format:Mass Market Paperback

I have been a fan of Hill's since reading Think and Grow Rich over 15 years ago.When I ask successful people the books that shaped their life, Think & Grow Rich is always mentioned first. Success through a positive Mental Attitude is also mentioned.The mind books definitely enhance your success and SUCCESS THROUGH A POSITIVE MENTAL ATTITUDE IS ONE OF THE VERY BEST.I also recommend Financial Self Defense and More Wealth without Risk. These books are to personal finance what Hill's books are to personal development.

By Randy Gilbert

Format:Mass Market Paperback

This book shows the absolute validity of Napoleon Hill's classic success book "Think and Grow Rich." W. Clement Stone seems to have put all of what Hill wrote about, which made him successful beyond belief.

Napoleon Hill's books have been a treasured part of my library. I've recommended this one to others countless times. I consider Napoleon Hill to be one of the earliest "proactive thinkers" in the world. As the father of the science of personal achievement, he has been one of my success mentors.

If you haven't read this book before, get ready for profound wisdom. Napoleon Hill makes it easy to understand that our thoughts are things and have God given powers, far beyond what is commonly taught by others. I can tell you from my own astonishing situations experiences that, your success really is most definitely determined by what and how you think and having a positive mental attitude is key.

You will find that this exciting book becomes a part of you. Don't hold back - let it happen. In fact, you should spend 10 to 15 minutes every morning focusing your thoughts on the truths of this book, thereby allowing them to seep deep into your subconscious mind. If you do this I guarantee this wisdom will most assuredly bring you the success and abundance you deserve.

Enjoy the book and your new proactive success life!

5.0 out of 5 stars Don't READ This Book, USE This Book January 16, 2000

By Raymond A. Mardo

Format:Audio Cassette

PMA stands for "positive mental attitude." This is the foundation that best selling author, Napoleon Hill based his teachings of motivation to millions of people who have transformed their lives for the better.

Hill went from living in a log cabin to the life of a millionaire and influence as the author of internationally acclaimed best sellers and adviser to heads of state. This was all made possible by living what he taught.

"What the mind can conceive and beleive, it can acheive," preaches Hill in his incredible "Success Through A Positive Mental Attitude". There is an audio version that you can listen to in your car, or there is a paperback available also.

Napoleon Hill also authored, "Think And Grow Rich", arguably the greatest motivational book of all time.

All of Hills' writings are incredible, however just remember to use them as blueprints and not as entertainment.

In other words, if you simply read "Succes Through A Positive Mental Attitude", you will have some enjoyment for a few evenings. If you employ what you read, you will enjoy a more fulfilled life.

You can start that more fulfilled life with this book. Good luck.

5.0 out of 5 stars I had to buy it twice because my first copy fell apart! February 2, 1999

By Sheri O. Zampelli VINE™ VOICE

Format:Mass Market Paperback

I read this book in the beginning of my college career. I carried it around with me until it started to fall apart. I was in a remedial reading course at community college. I am now studying for a master's degree at making all A's. I am authoring my own book to be released in the fall. The principles from books like these made all the difference.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book in addition to Think & Grow Rich June 16, 2004

By CyberMan

Format:Mass Market Paperback

I have a library of many of Napolean Hill's books. Think & Grow Rich is my favorite. Law of Success is my second favorite and this one is next.

What I liked about this book is the addition of comments by Clement Stone along with Hill's prowess. Interesting, Stone credits Napolean Hill's philosophy for helping him amass his huge fortune.

At first glance, Success Through a PMA may appear to be just another version of Think & Grow Rich. There are some similiarities, but plenty of differences to make this book a worthwhile read.

When I first got into network marketing in the 70's, I met a guy who made over $2 million in 18 months (in 1970 $$$!!!) and credits this book along with the right opportunity as being his secret to success.

Since following Hill's advice in this and Think and Grow Rich, I have achieved success far greater than I could have otherwise.

Great book in addition to Think & Grow Rich.
