NAPOLEON HILL'S SUCCESS - THE REST OF THE STORY

And now, as Paul Harvey would say, “here is the rest of the story”.

What sent Napoleon Hill, a journalist, in the early 1900‘s, on his path to becoming an American Icon in success, motivation, inspiration, etc.?

In 1908, Andrew Carnegie commissioned, at no pay, Napoleon Hill, to interview more than 500 high achievers and wealthy individuals. Carnegie could help Hill gain access to these individuals because of his contacts and circle of friends. Carnegie wanted Hill to find out the common threads of their success. Hill devoted the next 20 years of his life finding those common denominators.

Hill and Carnegie finally completed that work and it was published 20 years after it had begun, in 1928, after Carnegie's death, in Hill's book, Law of Success, and in 1937, Think and Grow Rich. Think and Grow Rich has not been out of print since it was first published. It has sold more than 30 million copies worldwide.

And now, “you know the rest of the story”.

So, if you haven't read one or either of these books, let's get going.

The Single Most Important Thing in Your Life in Obtaining SUCCESS

"I could do anything in life, if only I knew what it was." - Barbara Scher

Unfortunately, I was 62 before I found my professional work PASSION. You need not wait that long. I love Barbara Sher. Her books and her live performances and DVDs are awesome to say the least. If you can find your passion at work, it will follow you home. Now, wouldn't that be wonderful, personal happiness and fulfillment at work and at home.

I have been self-employed since I was 32 years old. Okay, I made a lot of money, owned a motor yacht, 3 beautiful homes in Kirkland, Washington, San Diego, California and Scottsdale, Arizona. Sounds like a dream come true. Well it is not. Especially, if you are doing something that you do not enjoy and do not have a passion. Trust me on this, if there is one thing in life that you absolutely positively have to get right, it is finding your true passion.

The best source that I have found, so far, is Barbara Sher. Don't put this off until tomorrow, because the next thing you know your life will have zipped by and you will have been miserable. Do it now.

Law of Success is 1072 pages long and worth every page.

If you haven't read this book and are interested in success in life and in money, you have to read all 1072 pages of this classic. With my direction, my son had read it 3 times by the time he was 18. Now, he is a multi-millionaire several times over at 46 years old. I could write a book on all of the advantages of reading this book. Instead, why not read it yourself. I am in a state of shock by the low number of reviews on this classic.
