Publisher Description
Napoleon Hill, born into poverty in 1883, began writing as a reporter for small town newspapers while just a teenager. When industrialist Andrew Carnegie commissioned him in 1908 to interview over 500 hundred successful men and women to help prove his theory that success could be distilled down to a clear-cut formula, Hill met with hundreds of the richest and most famous people of the time, including Thomas Edison, George Eastman, Henry Ford, Joseph Stalin, Theodore Roosevelt, F.W. Woolworth, Alexander Graham Bell, John D. Rockefeller, William H. Taft and Woodrow Wilson. Twenty years later, in 1928, Hill’s Philosophy of Achievement was offered as a formula for rags to riches success and was published as The Law of Success. This life changing guide of 16 lessons has sold millions of copies for nearly three quarters of a century and was his first master work before Think and Grow Rich, one of the best-selling books of all time. Now you can hear 24 hours of the incredible philosophy upon which personal success is built, including: • The Master Mind…who can profit most by the law of success philosophy and your six most dangerous enemies • A Definite Chief Aim…instructions for applying its principles • Self-Confidence… heredity, the self-confidence formula, and the power of habit and discontentment • The Habit of Saving…walls of limitation, the slavery of debt, mastering the fear of poverty, “I have made a million dollars but I haven’t got a cent,” and opportunities that come to those who save • Initiative and Leadership…the penalty of leadership and intolerance • Imagination… how it relates to success • Enthusiasm…how it affects you and others, the psychology of good clothes and the seven deadly horsemen • Self-Control…why poverty is the richest experience that can come to a child • The Habit of Doing More Than Paid For…The Law of Increasing Returns! • Pleasing Personality… 3 different plans • Accurate Thought…the principles involved in accurate thinking and a chief aim • Concentration…persuasion vs. force • Co-Operation…power through co-operation and your standing army • Failure…the turning points to opportunity • Tolerance…the plan • The Golden Rule…the power of prayer As America’s most beloved motivational author, Hill’s timeless philosophy has created more millionaires than any other book or success theory combined. What took Mr. Hill over twenty years and hundreds of interviews to gather, can be the foundation for your success. Open your mind to new ideas as you go back to the original unabridged source published now in audio to learn the secret to becoming wealthy

"This book was written over 80 years ago, but still holds up well. I will issue a warning that much of the content is considered New Age, even by todays standards. I imagine back in the 1920s they must have thought that Napoleon Hill was a lunatic. The book is far superior to its sequel, Think and Grow Rich. The book is divided into 15 easy to digest lessons. Hill tends to meander within the lessons (e.g. he sometimes does not get to the actual topic of each lesson until about half-way through) and sometimes leaves you wondering why he titled the lessons the way he did, but the material is very useful. The lessons on Self-Control and Doing More Than What You Are Paid For are worth the price of the book. Recommended for anyone that wants to put together a personal plan for success."

Quotes
-
“Allow me to express my appreciation of the compliment you have paid me in sending me the original manuscript of Law of Success. I can see you have spent a great deal of time and thought in its preparation. Your philosophy is sound and you are to be congratulated for sticking to your work over so long a period of years. Your students…will be amply rewarded for their labor.”
— Thomas A. Edison -
“May I congratulate you on your persistence. Any man who devotes that much time…must of necessity make discoveries of great value to others. I am deeply impressed by your interpretation of the ‘Master Mind’ principles which you have so clearly described.”
— Woodrow Wilson -
“My dear Mr. Hill: I have now had an opportunity to finish reading your Law of Success textbooks, and I wish to express my appreciation of the splendid work you have done in this philosophy. It would be helpful if every politician in the country would assimilate and apply the sixteen principles upon which the Law of Success is based. It contains some very fine material which every leader in every walk of life should understand.”
— William H. Taft -
“By applying many of the sixteen fundamentals of the Law of Success philosophy we have built a great chain of successful stores. I presume it would be no exaggeration of fact if I said that the Woolworth Building might properly be called a monument to the soundness of these principles.”
— F. W. Woolworth
