Never-before-published wisdom from famed self-help author Napoleon Hill
Napoleon Hill, the legendary author of the classic best seller Think and Grow Rich, has been immortalized for his contributions to the self-help genre. In this never-before-published work Hill shares his principles of success, key habits that provide the basis for life-changing success. Success Habits explains the fundamental rules that lead to a prosperous life. From the importance of having Definiteness of Purpose to the inexorable influence of the Cosmic Habit Force, Hill’s principles offer a new way of thinking about intention, self-discipline, and the way we lead our lives.
Originally a series of radio talks delivered in Paris, Missouri, Success Habits is filled with personal anecdotes and stories and is written in an approachable, conversational style. Hill’s insights apply to every facet of life, inspiring readers to leverage his principles to achieve their own aspirations and create the successful lives they have always dreamed of.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
This appealing guide to success marks the latest installment in the Napoleon Hill Is On the Air series, which presents writings from Hill (1883 1970), best known for the 1937 bestseller Think and Grow Rich. Don Green, executive director of the Napoleon Hill Foundation, discovered the forgotten tapes of Hill's radio and TV lecture programs, and has since been transcribing and publishing them for fans of "success philosophy." This entry derives from weekly radio broadcasts from a 1952 series in which Hill, in a folksy tone, discusses ways to build habits in order to capitalize on his success principles: mastering one's definite purpose and developing a pleasing personality. Some of it sounds like magical thinking the "law of cosmic habit force" and similarly named concepts will raise some initially skeptical eyebrows but at heart the advice is eminently practical and solid, as when he warns businesspeople against reading their contracts carelessly, stating that "taking the path of least resistance makes all rivers and some men crooked." Though some may find this quiet and very much a product of its different time, Hill's large and devoted fan base will be glad to have this good-natured addition to his library of success literature.
