 Lessons from Tycoons on Making Money with Your Mind Juli 17, 2007
Donald Mitchell (Boston)
1 aus 1 fanden die folgende Rezension hilfreich
When Napoleon Hill met Andrew Carnegie, Carnegie challenged Hill to interview the other most successful business leaders to find out what had helped them. Think of this as the equivalent of interviewing all of today's self-made billionaires. Carnegie offered no financial resources, but did help with making the introductions. Napoleon Hill was thus launched on the adventure of a lifetime that led to this intriguing book. In the book, Hill distills what each person had to say into simple concepts for setting goals, staying focused on them, and being persistent.
Napoleon Hill does not lay it all out in the way that modern "get rich now" writers do. He wants to leave room for you to discover what he has learned in the interviews for yourself. You will learn better and remember the lessons longer that way.
Some of the key points involve tales of overwhelming commitment to a goal. He then talks about the ways that people have reinforced these goals. The book deliberately leaves it unclear how much this goal setting and focus succeeds because of your concentration and how much because of human mental powers of some undefined sort. That source of success is beside the point, because if you do what Napoleon Hill suggests, I believe that you will have remarkable success in your life.
More recent research with young people shows that those who accomplish the most in their lives are those who have written goals at a fairly young age, and continue to focus on those goals. The point: Without goals, most people wander around aimlessly and accomplish less than their full potential. This does not mean that you have to work any harder or longer to be successful (although your commitment may encourage that). It does mean that your life will be much more purposeful.
I heartily subscribe to that belief. Whenever I have had firm goals, progress has been rapid. Exceed those goals, and progress stalls until new goals are set and pursued.
Another reason for reading this book is because you will meet many people in your life who will have read and used this process to accomplish a great deal in their own lives. Your ability to form valuable alliances with these people will be increased by your understanding of this book.
Unlike many positive thinking books, Think and Grow Rich is based on actual experiences of people whom many would like to emulate. The experiences that are shared here are all ones that you can follow. For example, if you would really like to have Bill Gates as your business partner without investing any money, you can see how people did this who wanted to have a partnership with Thomas Edison.
If nothing else, you will uncover whether or not you have the dedication it takes to create astonishing wealth through concentrating your mind on your goals. If relaxing on the beach sounds good to you as you think about creating wealth, this methodology is not for you.
If you find that you do not understand Napoleon Hill's message, feel free to read any of his later books. He lays out the key points in great detail in those.
From the title, you may think that this book will give you a very detailed get-rich process. It is just the opposite. You will still have a lot of work ahead of you to learn how to achieve your goals if you use the Think and Grow Rich principles. Your work will go better because it will be purposeful about something that you care passionately about.
May you find a path to progress that stimulates an overwhelming passion in others to work with you!

...the teacher will appear. Napoleon Hill encourages readers to go through this book at least three times. Solid advice, for there is a lot to chew on here.First, you must know what it is that you want. As the publisher notes, "The riches within your grasp cannot always be measured in money." Get a clear picture of your definition of riches. Second, you must keep an eye open for opportunity, and be prepared to apply this material to transform thought into rewards. 20 years of research are crammed into these pages. You will learn six steps to stimulate your subconscious mind to turn desire into gold, a five step self-confidence formula, the 31 major causes of failure, how to train yourself to be persistent, how to multiply your brain power through a Master Mind group, the power of sex transmutation, the secret of effective prayer, and how to identify and conquer fear. Do not aim to understand and apply all of these concepts in one trip through the book. Some of the ideas presented here take a while to absorb. Treat it like a buffet, sampling some of the familiar and comfortable in the first wave, while trying some of the new ideas as well. Look to understand and apply more with each read. As you progress, you will see evidence of the truth behind each chapter. Henry Ford said, "Thinking is the hardest work there is, which is the probable reason so few engage in it." This is not always an easy read. The concepts aren't trendy and easy to apply, so some are likely to dismiss them. But if you take the time to study this book, apply the principles and really start *thinking* right, you will grow rich.
MAKE NO MISTAKE ABOUT IT, THIS IS THE FOUNDATION OF ALL... August 1, 2000

self-help, success strategy, personal growth, and motivational books combined. What you have here, my friends, is a collection of the 13 MOST imperative, fundemental principles to acheiving specifically all that you desire in LIFE. Oh yeah, you think...you've read them all, right? Well, let's get our facts straightened out...These principles are the founding efforts of Tony Robbins, Covey, Rome, etc., etc., The principles depicted in this book can, and will turn ordinary people into extraordinary people--with purpose, drive and inspiration. Written after the Great Depression (not sure what was so great about it, other than what we were able to learn from it), and was used to help thousands of able Americans, down on their luck, to overcome and sustain any adversity...and re-build their fortunes--achieving their every desire. This book should be a piece of literature that all graduating high-schoolers, or graduating undergraduates MUST read. Top 10 list of all books ever read, on my list. You WILL benefit from this book!

I have read over 400 books on personal development. Think and Grow Rich is the best.It's not just positive thinking, but also strategies and techniques to reach your goals.It's great to see Napolean Hills great book has such a high rating here at Amazon and is still one of the best selling books.If you want just one book, this should be it.If you are in business or want to be or in a leadership role, I also suggest Direct From Dell by Michael Dell. If Napoleon Hill were alive today and interiewing the most successful people of the times, surely Michael Dell would be at the top of his list.I am also sure that Mike Dell has read and applying the strategies from Think and Grow Rich.Read and apply the techniques from both books and you can't help but be successful.
Just do it Juli 13, 2000
This is a great book. I have finally read it after numerous recommendations in the past, and my only wish is that I would have read it sooner. As a generally positive minded person, I have found it most useful in reinforcing a positive attitude as I begin a difficult new business venture. Don't let the title fool you, the book will help you to achieve ANYTHING you want. It is a must read for anyone looking for the true secret to success. Oh yes, it is in this book! Forget infomercials and fluff. Spend $5, read 250 pages, change your life forever. See you at the top, friends!
