Think and grow rich

      I chose to read Think And Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill the original 1937 version. Think and grow rich has been one of the most successful books since first published in 1937 and has been remastered a number of times to have relevant examples of how to grow rich even though it is the same key principles. Napoleon Hill's "mission" I guess you can call it is to help as many people realize what truly makes a man successful and how to gain those riches yourself. In favor of his mission, he wrote this book. Napoleon has 13 key principles and during the book, it will give you instructions to follow, don't ignore them you must do exactly what he says or it will not work.
      "Whatever the mind can conceive and believe it can achieve." A quote that comes up a lot during this book. Napoleon Hill uses many examples of people that achieved success and how they did it and explains it. So Hill uses Thomas A. Edison as an example of how Edison conceived the idea of becoming a scientist even with very little education. Napoleon even uses his own son as an example because his story is incredible. Napoleon Hill had a son born without ears and doctors believed that he may never be able to hear. Hill found out that his son did have a very slight degree of hearing so Hill implanted the desire of being able to hear like any normal person in his son's head.  I cannot give you the whole story but if you read the book you can find out for yourself.
