Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill

Think and Grow Rich was an instant success when it was first published in 1937 in the midst of the Great Depression.

Having since sold more than 100 million copies, it is still considered the first and finest book ever written about the "secrets" to achieving wealth. In coming up with this book, Napoleon Hill distilled the wisdom from Andrew Carnegie, a great legend of the Industrial Age; as well as many others'.

This book should be in everyone’s success library. But know and remember this challenge before you - what you begin by reading, you must finish by doing - DECISIVELY, FAITHFULLY and PERSISTENTLY.

I like the part about transmutation of sexual energy. Ahead of his times.

We cannot be hoping to hit 2 targets with 1 bullet, can we? ;-)

Positive? Of course, I am! Wasn't that what Hill meant when he said that from 40-60, man is at the most productive age? Before that, ah ... their energy is spent elsewhere. ;-)
