Review

...During our ten-year association, I learned the missing number to my combination for worldwide successful achievement. The Master Mind Principle: two or more persons working together in complete harmony toward a mutual goal or goals...Napoleon Hill's philosophy teaches you what you were never taught. Specifically: How to Recognize, Relate, Assimilate and Apply principles whereby you can achieve any goal whatsoever that doesn't violate Universal Law - the Law of God and the rights of your fellowman... -- W. Clement Stone Chairman, Combined International Corporation President, The Napoleon Hill Foundation

During the past twenty-five years I have been blessed with more good fortune than any individual deserves but I shudder to think where I'd be today, or what I'd be doing if I had not been exposed to Napoleon Hill's philosophy. It changed my life. -- Og Mandino Author and Lecturer

I knew Napoleon Hill in 1922 when I was a student in Salem College in the town of my birth. Mr. Hill came to our campus as the commencement speaker in that year. As I listened to him, I heard something other than just the words he spoke, I felt the substance - the wisdom - and the spirit of a man and his philosophy. Mr. Hill said "the most powerful instrument we have in our hand is the power of our mind." Napoleon Hill compiled this philosophy of American achievement for the benefit of all people. I strongly commend this philosophy to you for achievement and service in your chosen field. -- Senator Jennings Randolph West Virginia --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

From the Author

A Word From the Author Throughout this program, mention has been made of the money-making secret which has made fortunes for hundreds of exceedingly wealthy men whom I have carefully analyzed over a long period of years.

The secret was brought to my attention by Andrew Carnegie, more than half a century ago. The canny, lovable old Scotsman carelessly tossed it into my mind, when I was but a boy. Then he sat back in his chair, with a merry twinkle in his eyes, and watched carefully to see if I had brains enough to understand the full significance of what he had said to me.

When he saw that I had grasped the idea, he asked if I would be willing to spend twenty years or more preparing myself to take it to the world, to men and women who, without the secret, might go through life as failures. I said I would, and with Mr. Carnegie's cooperation, I have kept my promise.

5.0 out of 5 stars Twelve hours of pure inspiration. The 17 principles of success explained, February 12, 2006

This review is from: Your Right To Be Rich (Audio CD)

This is a 9 CD collection of live lectures that Hill conducted in Chicago in 1954. It covers the 17 Principles of Personal Achievement (also known as the 17 Keys to Success) over 12 hours. It amazes me that something so wonderful exists and is so inexpensive. I am more amazed by the fact that so few people are aware of it. It is a joy to hear the principles explained in Hill's own voice. I was not fortunate enough to take his classes, but this is the next best thing. This is the best way to get to know this great man. He was wise, humble and funny.
There are thousands of self-help books out in the market and hundreds of self proclaimed "gurus" who have made a living by copying the wisdom in Napoleon Hill's books. As I went through some of those books I realized that there was not much in them that Hill had not already written about. I recommend quality over quantity. Instead of reading through many books, I recommend that you study the following works of Hill and internalize his wisdom:
1. The Think and Grow Rich Action Pack (1937) - I recommend the Action Pack edition,
2. Napoleon Hill's Keys to Success: The 17 Principles of Personal Achievement - this is an excellent guide to his principles,
3. Your Right To Be Rich [Unabridged] - this item.
By internalizing, I mean studying in depth - analyzing the ideas, making notes and summaries. I own more CDs by Hill, but I believe that these 3 items make the perfect study plan on the Philosophy of Personal Achievement.
This philosophy is the end product of two decades of research conducted by Napoleon Hill. His research started when Andrew Carnegie (the steel tycoon who was then the richest man on earth) gave him the assignment of organizing a Philosophy of Personal Achievement. Hill, who was a poor journalist, armed with just an introductory letter from Carnegie, set out to interview over five hundred successful people including Henry Ford, Thomas Edison, Alexander Graham Bell, John D. Rockefeller, George Eastman, William Wrigley Jr. and Charles M. Schwab. Hill then revealed the priceless wisdom of his research in the form of the thirteen steps to success (in Think and Grow Rich) and the seventeen principles of success (in courses and lectures he conducted).
The concepts taught by Napoleon Hill transformed my life. Some of these include developing a definite purpose, building a Positive Mental Attitude (PMA), channeling the power of the sub-conscious mind and dealing with adversity. Everything he wrote about or talked about is thought provoking. His philosophy is universal; he did not mix it with religion. The riches he referred to were more than money, for the Philosophy of Personal Achievement can be applied to anything in life.
Hill was well ahead of his time. "Think and Grow Rich" has a chapter dedicated to some of today's most important issues - Specialized Knowledge, Decision Making, Imagination and Organized Planning (in which he deals with Leadership). And his principles deal with Teamwork, Creative Vision, Health, etc.
I am greatly indebted to Napoleon Hill. The purpose of my writing this is to spread awareness of his work so that more people can benefit from it. This, I believe is the best way in which Hill would have liked to have been repaid.
If my review was helpful to you, I request you to select "Yes" so that the rating is improved and more readers will get to read it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Really Great and Really Works!, April 6, 2007

This review is from: Your Right To Be Rich (Audio CD)

If you're feeling discouraged or lacking direction, listen to this and other recordings like it. I like this one better than "Think and grow rich." Napoleon Hill has good guidance to keep you on track towards success and words that will lift your spirits and drive away the dark, negative thoughts that try to drag you down into failure. I think this recording should basically replace the bible. This IS my bible.

Lately, I have started asking my subconscious to give me guidance on what to do, to tell me what the best course would be to get to my goals. I recently started out with a certain business plan, but soon after I started, I realized that plan was seriously flawed. It would require too much work for too little profit. So I asked my subconscious to give me a better plan. I did this by visualizing getting the exact success I wanted. Within a day or two, I got a much better business plan from my subconscious. Then I asked for further help with the plan and I got that also. Now all the pieces are falling into place, and NOW, finally, it looks to me like success is imminent and I know exactly what I'm doing. I have recently studied marketing a lot, and I've also studied my particular field of business and thought about it. Then I left it up to my subconscious to process that information and give me the best plan to follow to achieve my goals. It all seems so easy now.

I used to be skeptical about using the power of my subconscious, but if you put yourself in a totally positive frame of mind and free yourself from doubts and fears, and then use the visualization techniques to see your success, then it DOES WORK. You open your mind to your subconscious and allow it to give you the answers you need - the direction and steps you need to proceed to your goals. You cast off your psychological limitations and allow yourself to proceed rapidly towards your goals. NEVER doubt your abilities. Do not worry about anything. But at the same time, act prudently, do your research, and use all the wisdom you've learned. Don't act foolishly or recklessly. Know what you're doing. Don't guess when you're starting a business.

Make sure you have plenty of paper and write down plenty of notes while you listen. You learn FAR better that way. Also it's nice to use pens of many different colors and alternate between them. Your notes stand out much more that way.
