Publisher's summary

“Napoleon Hill was one of America’s great, influential thinkers who continues to have an enormous impact today.” - Steve Forbes, editor-in-chief of Forbes magazine

Bestselling author Napoleon Hill reveals the seven principles of good that allow us to triumph over obstacles...and find success.

Using his legendary ability to get to the root of human potential, Napoleon Hill digs deep to reveal how fear, procrastination, anger, and jealousy prevent us from realizing our personal goals. This long-suppressed parable, once considered too controversial to publish, was written by Hill in 1938 following the publication of his classic bestseller, Think and Grow Rich. Annotated and edited for a contemporary audience by Rich Dad, Poor Dad and Three Feet from Gold coauthor Sharon Lechter, this book is profound, powerful, resonant, and rich with insight.

Critic reviews

"My simple faith is this: If we are created in God’s image, then we were born to create, and to create is to prosper. [This] previously unpublished Napoleon Hill manuscript.... I’ve read it and recommend it." (Rich Karlgaard, Publisher of Forbes magazine)

Great!

I could do without the commentary but this is a great book. I love the two voices. There’s so much valuable/relatable info here. Golden.

Game Changer

Only when you are ready will this book be bestowed upon you. The timing of this read was critical for me as a transition. I gained so much insight from it causing me to reflect on my life and my decisions. I approached this book differently and listened to the audio while reading along with the physical copy. It was so necessary for me to digest it this way.

The audio performance was riveting because of the added a beautiful component with the difference in voices adding color and an enjoyable experience.

On a whole, that process provided concrete focus and put me in a position to now execute accordingly. I highly recommend this book to anyone who desires change. Shout out to a life of non drifting.

a new spin

this book was amazing!!! He presented a different perspective if his work of self improvement. it was very interesting that the devil would be the one to tell us how to escape his crip. But although supernatural it logically made so much sense! I actually have so many take aways to apply to my life.

Requires self reflection. Promotes personal growth!

Extremely pertinent topic throughout anyone’s life wherever they are! Will require self reflection and honest self critique. Narration is fantastic and interjection by Sharon Lecter encourages thinking and application. Great book! Even better in audio version!

It’s what we all needed but never wanted

The classic tale of how we never know what we need until we see it for ourselves.

This book should have changed the world a long time ago yet here it is now.

And it’s hair raising to see how accurate it speaks of the world.

did not expect an interview style

provided a huge insight and for an 80yr old book it seems to be especially fit for these times

Must read in my opinion

Rubric for how to truly succeed in this life experience. One of the most concise and poignant books I've ever read. Bought the physical copy as well to refer back and really drill in this info.
