![]() Napoleon states that “ All achievement, all earned riches, have their beginning in an idea”. ![]() Ideas play an important role in achieving wealth. In fact, he feels that your financial situation, either way, is a result of thought – “poverty and riches are the offspring of thought”. However, he is clear that you wealth begins in your mind – “ If you do not see great riches in your imagination you will never see them in your bank balance”. He clearly says that “ wishing will not bring riches”. Some people mistakenly read the title and imagine that they can just think riches into their life. Think and Grow Rich suggests that “riches are not beyond your reach” and that by following the steps in the book anyone can accumulate wealth.Īs the title suggests Napoleon put an emphasis thinking and one’s mind. The idea originated from a discussion with Andrew Carnegie who believed that “ the magic formula, which gave him a stupendous fortune, ought to be placed within reach of people who do not have time to investigate how men make money”. I originally read the book because it is THE most recommended money making book by millionaires. Napoleon wrote the book after analysing over five hundred exceedingly wealthy men. I would say that makes it either a great book or just shows that there are a lot of people interested in making money. Originally written in 1937, this book has sold over 100 million copies worldwide. In the spirit of re-reading books, a book that was top of the list for a re-read was Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill.
