This book is a classic.
Napolean Hill spent 25 years writing this book after being persuaded to do so by Andrew Carnegie-the richest man in the world at the time. The book turned out wonderful. There is no denying that this book is a winner. Although it truly a very high concentrated book, what it says is still pertinent today. The book can be discouraging since it presents many examples of success. You need to be ready for this book since it tells you of extra ordinary winners. It tells many stories of successful people and unless you are prepared to be a success yourself, you may not understand what is being said. The book puts plainly before you many reasons that people become successful. You do not have to be obsessed. In order to be rich, you need to obtain what you need, and this book will help. This book will help you form a foundation in which to build your riches upon. You may write your notes in it and keep it as an aid in your outline while getting richer. You do need persistence and will power and focus-all of which is analyzed in this great book. This book also presents you with many secret riches right under your nose. Those riches that make a difference in life: love, happiness, good health. The good and free foundation of riches. It even states that the riches of the heart are more worthy than mere representations of wealth like paper money. It says most of all be happy. I think this book will make you happy. Yet this book also clearly defines the true ingredients which go into acquiring material riches-it contains moral support on your road to riches. This book may not give you what you expect-because, the secret of this book is.. it'll give you what you need: riches of the heart and mind~self respect.

Think of Riches
Successful people, according to the author, have harnessed the power of thought. This book gives several examples of outstanding people making their thoughts a reality, including the example of the author's son who, being born deaf, learns to hear because of his great desire to do so. It was not an easy journey for the boy, but his father helped instill in him this desire and he wouldn't stop until he realized it. Probabably most of you have strongly desired something and someone told you it was impossible, yet you achieved what you were told you couldn't. This book is about that, but about more, besides. There are parts of this book that seemed geared more for men than for women, however, and I also found that this book was not as clear to me as The Power of Your Subconscious Mind by Dr. Joseph Murphy (try to get the unrevised edition, if you're interested.) Still, this book is worth reading. Just don't read it and stop there. Get some other books as well to help you understand how to apply the principals of faith. (Every religion always tells you to have it, but in practical layman's terms, many religions do not explain how.)
