Yes...read the book way back when I first got into this whole entrepreneur thing....great book and recommend it to anyone who is looking to develop a success mindset.

It's next on my to-read list, looking forward to it.

Yes, its incredible book! Trying to apply it every single day!

TAGR got me started with the whole personal development thing. Bob Proctor mentioned it on a CD and after the first few pages I was hooked. I like the practical, no-nonsense delivery. The story of his son is perhaps the most inspiring I've ever read. If that's possible ANYthing is possible.

I haven't read it yet, but i've heard that the actual "secret" is just implied all the time. Well, i guess all of us know that there is no real secret, other than hard work

I bought Think and Grow Rich by Napolean Hill about 20 years ago and read it two times. Since then I came across many books about application of mind power to solve problems and how human brain works. The more I became familiar about the working of human brain the more creative I became in application of ideas given in the book.

I'm reading it now. It's very dated in places.

I can see where the authors of "The Answer" got their inspiration from though.

I haven't applied everything I've read in these books, but I've found since reading them that my brain is chugging out brilliant business ideas faster than I can implement them ! I am well on my way to setting up my 20 different $100 a month ideas.

Hi Santosh

This is a fantastic book, I have read it a few times already and probably will many more times in the future. It contains such valuable lessons and is a recommended read for anybody who want to improve their life.

Thanks was just thinking about purchasing it! Watched a TV promo regarding it looks pretty interesting. How has it helped you?

Dear Folks, Thanks for sharing your thoughts about this great book. I am practicing the principles in this book everyday and this book has changed completely how I look at life and business per se.

Best Wishes, Santosh

I have an electronic version of the original book, plus an updated re-written workbook version, a set of 16 videos, 16 audios and a 5 hour online seminar version. I give away an electronic copy of the original for newsletter sign ups.

As yet I haven't had the time to finish it yet allthough I have been through another video version. My favourite phrase which is from it is "What the mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve." If you really believe something the mind will show you the way but yoy have to totally believe it first, any doubt and it won't work. That for me is the essence of the book.

I am in the process of creating similar products for "As a Man Thinketh" and "The Art of Money Getting" ready to go. The websites are nearly ready. My aim is to have about 20 of these within the next year, taking them, updating them and creating a package to promote.

Hello Santosh,

Napoleon Hill's classic is still one of my all time favorite books. I actually forgot how many times I read the book and still, each time I start afresh I pick up some more wisdom.

A must-have arsenal in everyone's PD library.

Yes, Think and Grow Rich is an excellent book.

Thing is though, you can't learn to swim by just reading about it. At some point you have to jump in the water.

Most people never get past the reading stage, which makes the book good entertainment, nothing more.

Having said that, this book is one of those which needs to be read and reread before something 'clicks'. That's when things start to happen.

By the way, has anyone read Wink and Grow Rich? That's a great book too.

Abdul.

it is an amazing book highly recommended

Yes it is a great book and I will read it a few more times when I get round to it. I've noticed that 'The Secret' is a very close version of this book and doesn't really add anything more. This shows what a great book it is - still relevant after all these years.

There's some rare footage of the great Napoleon Hill that helps sum up his ideas and philosophies...

Santosh,
I have read TAGR a couple of times.... amazingly (not really) I have had huge business success while reading it and shortly thereafter.....

Unfortunately, when I am "on top" for a while, I start to think "I don't need to practice this stuff anymore - I've got it" (by practice, I mean the 13 Success Principles in the book).

Well: now I am at an all time business low due to being tied to a number of under-performing rental properties...

What did I do this week - I just brushed off my favorite copy of TAGR.

Started reading it this morning in fact (before finding your thread) and expect to be back on top before the month is through (at least on the way out of this "hole"). It is an amazing book for anyone that hasn't read it. Let me rephrase that - the principles inside the covers are amazing, and they can turn things around in a hurry when put into practice!

Maybe this time I can keep the momentum going - keep working the principles instead of thinking I don't need them anymore (or at least the "work" it takes to practice these principles).

Don't be afraid to challenge me on this one and ask for an update! By July 1st I expect nothing but prosperity in my world.....

Best,
Jeremy

Definitely a gold mine book for every reader like me. On the other note, I just recently bought Tim Ferriss 4-Hour Workweek (Extended) and I'm getting really excited.

I read it a few months ago and it has changed my whole approach in life.

The Thirteen Steps to Riches is described in this book offers the shortest, dependable philosophy of individual achievement ever presented for the benefit of man or woman who is searching for a definite goal in life.

Napoleon Hill talks in depth about step you can take to change your life and he says "Our only limitations are those we set up in our minds." This book will change your life and will teach you things like how to identify your Fears and overcome them, and how to use desire, faith, persistence, decision making, your sixth sense and many more to your advantage.

If you are over 40 or 50 years old and think the time is past for you to make your dreams come true, you are wrong, Napoleon Hill talks about some experiences that many successful men went through after age 40 or 50. This book will teach you simple techniques that you can apply immediately and turn your life around.

Originally read the electronic version of this several years ago and was total a true believer. I have introduced so many people to it and even bought copies and given them away.

Great book and I also like Wallace D. Wattle's books - he was prior to Napolean Hill. Check out his books too.

I actually got that book in a moment of motivation, but have never opened it! After these comments, I deff. will read it...
Hope it helps

Yes the book is absolutely fantastic!! I have read similar ones with the same basic ideas presented in them but Think and Grow Rich really delivers it in a clear and systematic way that is easy to follow and IT WORKS. If you follow what it says it actually works!
This book was my true breakthrough to starting to get ahead in the reaching of my goals, money and life more generally.

So very much of our success is about a mindset with which we approach business and anything in life, and this book gives you all the tools to change a negative mindset to a truly positive one, and that when success starts coming to you.

It is truly amazing -- you work on your mindset and the other things just start coming to you once you are in the right frame of mind.

If anyone is interested in similar books, you can google for free copies of "Thought Vibration" by William Atkinson and "The Science of Getting Rich" (can't remember the author).

Mindset really is everything. It is worth reading as much as you can of the literature that gets you to think positive and take positive ACTION because that is what it's all about!

My Recommendations:

You can find plenty of books for entrepreneurs there. Its an awesome curriculum to follow!

there's no doubt that Think and Grow Rich is an excellent book, that it's the ONE BOOK that most successful people will always rank in their top 5 as being the most important and most influential. But its also one that can be extremely challenging
to understand and absorb. It took me multiple attempts before I was able to get past the first 20 pages or so.

Think and Grow Rich is definitely one of the most practical and influential books for me, and its depth never ceases to surprise me. You can get a tremendous amount of actionable advice from this manual of success with every read-through.

If I were in charge of deciding high school curricula, I would--without a second thought--put Think and Grow Rich at the top of the list of books that students should study. As jeremytfleming said, it is truly a life-changing book, and I would also recommend Hill's other complementary book titled The Master-Key to Riches.

I was at the Magic Bullet Seminar in San Diego a month ago, and Amish and Jay had a bunch of their friends/mastermind members up on stage to answer questions from the audience. One of the questions that was asked was if they would all list either the book or guru that had been most instrumental in their success.

Without a doubt, Think and Grow Rich was mentioned more than any other. (and I think Tony Robbins came in second place, which echoes my feelings exactly)

It is a classic that should not be overlooked. I first read this many years ago as a child, but the principles are timeless and you'll see that upon repeated reading it'll reveal even more insights that may not have occurred to you earlier.

I feel that many of today's popular self-motivation gurus have pulled the basic principles from this book and made it their own...so there really is no need to keep buying all these latest books and tapes when the essential wisdom of Napoleon Hill can be had for free (I believe this book is now public domain, and you can download the PDF from basically any of the numerous public domain websites out there).

Thanks for the video, really good stuff.

I have a love/hate relationship with this book. It's dated and a lot of it is bilge. But on the other hand some of it is so bang on the money it's like it was written yesterday. Some of the stuff so exactly mirrors my own experiences it's unreal.

To take one such example, the stuff about not being distracted by other people is just fantastic advice for the facebook generation. Most of the people I know moan about their boring jobs, yet they just haven't realised they can easily take charge of their own lives.

And not telling other people about your ideas, that is pure gold!

I am about half way through the book and it truly is amazing. Thank you.

Have heard so much about the book and never done anything about it. Guess it's time now to go and download the free copy. Thanks for sharing.

If you interested the ebook or have Amazon kindle, click on my signature link below and get the link to purchase one. Hey, I do not give it for free unfortunately.

[DELETED]

thanks for the ebook I will read it and be back for feedback!

I love this book - and have been digesting it one chapter at a time - as per the instructions in the book.

For me - the most important part of this book is not the wealth creation aspect - but rather the preeminence of the mind.

It's mystical - but at the same time 100% concrete.

There's really nothing mystical about it.

You desire something - you believe in it - you take steps to acquire it.

I am new to posting in the Warrior Forum - and actually I'm looking more for the lifestyle/mindset side of things.

I imagine it to be here in the MindWarriors section.

- Very happy and grateful to be here.

All my best,

IanPrz

Where can I find the workbook? This would interest me. Thanks

I turned my life around after reading think and grow rich. The law of success course is really nice but it takes a really long time to finish the course.
