The Law of Success

From the Master Mind to the Golden Rule (in Sixteen Lessons)

By: Napoleon Hill

Narrated by: Grover Gardner

Length: 24 hrs and 19 mins

Publisher's summary

Napoleon Hill, born into poverty in 1883, began writing as a reporter for small town newspapers while just a teenager. Industrialist Andrew Carnegie commissioned him in 1908 to interview over 500 successful men and women to help prove his theory that success could be distilled down to a clear-cut formula. In 1928, Hill's Philosophy of Achievement was published as The Law of Success. This life-changing guide has sold millions of copies and was his first master work before Think and Grow Rich, one of the best-selling books of all time.

Now you can hear 24 hours of the incredible philosophy upon which personal success is built, including:

The Master Mind...who can profit most by the Law of Success philosophy and your six most dangerous enemies

A Definite Chief Aim...instructions for applying its principles

Self-Confidence...heredity, the self-confidence formula, and the power of habit and discontentment

The Habit of Saving...walls of limitation, the slavery of debt, mastering the fear of poverty, "I have made a million dollars but I haven't got a cent," and opportunities that come to those who save

Initiative and Leadership...the penalty of leadership and intolerance

Imagination...how it relates to success

Enthusiasm...how it affects you and others, the psychology of good clothes, and the seven deadly horsemen

Self-Control...why poverty is the richest experience that can come to a child

The Habit of Doing More Than Paid For...The Law of Increasing Returns!

Pleasing Personality...three different plans

Accurate Thought...the principles involved in accurate thinking and a chief aim

Concentration...persuasion vs. force

Co-Operation...power through co-operation and your standing army

Failure...the turning points to opportunity

Tolerance...the plan

The Golden Rule...the power of prayer

Very Inspiring...

Though needs a heavy hand of an editor.

Many hours are passed by blabbering, song reading, sharing us with old world perceptions on the life, etc.
I think that modern women will not appreciate the author’s take on women’s role in her man's life. I also do not believe that Native Americans will appreciate the author’s take on the benefits that the white man brought into their lives, and so on.
Other than that, this course is very inspiring and educating. It's not just about money but will encourage everybody to check their own lives and attitudes.
After reading most of Mr. Hill's "Think and Grow Rich" I assume that the matching audible is much more effective and up to the purpose of whoever has interest in bringing wealth into their lives.

Simply great!

I feel truly enlightened and so instead of repenting about this material having been read 15 years back, which I do so, I take the pledge to repeatedly read it for next 15 years or until the last breath. I also take a pledge to apply all the learnings to make a living better and more purposeful. Thank you.

Great Book!!!!

I definitely learned A lot!!!! I will listen to the book again in the future. This book provides a swift kick to the backside to get moving on your goals!!!!

Excellent!!!

Great book with practical wisdom you can use every day to be successful. I wish I had read it when I was younger.

A classic self help book

I love this book, or textbook; since its so big!
Ive listened to this about 5 times and I learn something new each time. definitely one of the best, if not the best work in self help and personal development. I highly recommend this.

good thorough

A thorough review of principals your parents should have taught that your public education probably didn't. The science behind the ideas is a bit dated but the principles are still sound.

Superb... even after a century.

Hill's book is amazing, not only because of its content but also because of the timeframe in which it was written. Have listened to this book a couple times and will continue to return to it again and again.

inspiration!

listen to it many times and you will soon start to think and see more what is around you.

Very Good (After the First Two Chapters)

The first two chapters were a little odd and were tough to get through. After that though, the book was fantastic! It contains a ton of good info that is very relevant still today.
