Think and Grow Rich, by Napoleon Hill is the classic tome (little one!)of personal and prosperity development.

I’m not even going to attempt to do a review of this phenomenal book but I’d like to share with you a poem from Page 38 which is the chapter on Faith.

Napoleon talks about the disaster of negative thinking and gives the ‘formula for self-confidence.’ Wow this is something that everyone who is trying to coax the rich person out of them can benefit from reading over and over.

Here’s the poem:

“If you think you are beaten, you are,

If you think you dare not, you don’t.

If you like to win, but you think you can’t,

It is almost certain you won’t.

If you think you’ll lose, you’re lost,

For out in the world we find,

Success begins with a fellow’s will -

It’s all in the state of MIND.

If you think you’re outclassed, you are,

You’ve got to be sure of yourself before

You can ever win a prize.

Life’s battles, don’t always go

To the stronger or faster man

But soon or later the man who wins

Is the man WHO THINKS HE CAN!”

Hug this one close and take it to bed with you every night! Re-visit the book if you’ve read it and brainwash yourself into successful thinking.

If you’re not a big reader (become one?) or just focus on the chapter on Faith for now. A kid can read it.

This is one of my favourite chapters. Here’s another little portion from page 35:

“Thoughts which are mixed with any of the feelings of emotions constitute a ‘magnetic’ force which attracts other similar or related thoughts.”

Amazing hey? Ther’s the Secret and the Law of Attraction for you way back when. All of the new books seem to come from this source (which of course was fueled by other sources)

So are there no new truths?

The GREAT news is that just by investing a few notes to buy this little book you have all the secrets of the prosperity masters at your fingertips.

Reading and studying the whole book over and over is a pleasure. Andrew Carnegie’s rise from poverty to riches is a wonder all of it’s own.

Will you take the time to study, practice and teach? YES I know ‘I’m so LUCKY’ because I love to read. I’ve been reading everything I could get my hands on since I learned how.

Reading is the best free activity and source of inspiration ever invented in my opinion. Anyway give yourself a little heart-warming treat and follow the Self confidence formula and the FAITH code in Chapter 3.

It’s also available on CD so you can turn your car or kitchen into your prosperity university.
