Summary

In 1908, an unknown writer was chosen by Andrew Carnegie, the richest man in the world, to undertake a very special project - interview the most influential and wealthy leaders to determine the common denominator among them for attaining success. That young man was Napoleon Hill, and the book that grew from those interviews was Think and Grow Rich, the bible of personal development and the 20th best-selling book in the history of the world.

Exactly 100 years later the Napoleon Hill Foundation selected two gifted individuals to follow in Hill's historic footsteps and modernize his classic work by interviewing the most celebrated and gifted minds of our modern era. Sharon Lechter and Greg Reid focused their query on a core component of the Think and Grow Rich philosophy by asking one simple question: What inspired you despite overwhelming challenges, dismal odds and discouraging setback to persevere on your quest?

Now, more than ever, we need a reminder that in order to achieve greatness our determination must be more powerful that any obstacles confronted. Great pains are prerequisites to great gains. There are no shortcuts. First there is a dream, and then there is struggle followed by victory. The admonition is to not be a footnote in history like R. U. Darby. Who was he? He was a miner during the California Gold Rush who threw in the towel and sold his claim for a hundred dollars. The man who bought the claim dug only 'three feet' before striking one of the richest gold veins in history.

A great read. Took many notes and looking forward to journaling my own revelations on how I can in turn use this valuable information.

Awesome Read

I hadn’t come across this book before, and bought it of the back of reading Outwitiing The Devil Napoleon Hill/Sharon Lechter .. what a purchase though - one of the best and most inspirational books I have ever read .. my new firm favourite.

Relatable stories in the book

You felt the struggles others have gone through to get where they are and lessons learned interwoven with the principles written by Napoleon Hill's book "Think and Grow Rich" was well done. A good book on never giving up, staying resilient and making your life journey the best one possible.

Written for a child

This book is ideal if you want to let your children start their self development journey.

I forced myself to read 2/3 of it and then gave up and I always finish a book.

Zzzzzzzzzzzzz, are we there yet?

I felt like this book was constantly preparing to take off, a build to a beautiful crescendo, a spark to the fuel to get the fire raging. Really... It just dragged and failed to launch at any point. Very basic and slow pace and narrative. If you're new to personal development, this might be like a PG soft start. If you've some energy or gusto about you, I'd recommend think and grow rich and how to win friends and Influence people as more suitable starting points.
