About the author

... Show More
Oliver Napoleon Hill was an American self-help author and conman. He is best known for his book Think and Grow Rich (1937), which is among the best-selling self-help books of all time. Hill's works insisted that fervid expectations are essential to improving one's life. Most of his books were promoted as expounding principles to achieve "success".
Hill is a controversial figure. Accused of fraud, modern historians also doubt many of his claims, such as that he met Andrew Carnegie and that he was an attorney.

I have no DESIRE to finish this book. The way this is written makes me want to throw it down every time I pick it up. I gave up at page 112. Not only is the book FILLED with annoying all-capital words and italicization's, there's a ton of New Age-y HOKUM to boot. This book seems to be the blueprint for self help books. It is so absurdly cliche by this point in time. If wealth is your particular self help interest, you're better off reading about some practical ways to accumulate wealth, rather than some dude who made HIS millions telling you there's some miraculous secret that can only be fulfilled by your DESIRE. Give me a break. It is quite literally impossible for each of the millions of people who believe the crap in this book to make even half the amount of money that the people Hill's referring to in this book had made. Regarding the New Age aspects of this book, as soon as I see words like "vibrations" and "ether," I want to light the pages on fire. A self help book about wealth which includes New Age terms, no practical or logical steps to accumulate wealth, no quantifiable data, nay, ANY scientific rigor whatsoever, is completely disingenuous about being for your benefit. By the way, this amazing SECRET that's mentioned in the first page of the book, is still not revealed by page 112. I'm sure it'll magically reveal itself to you when you make your first billion. This book was a total waste of time.

كتاب نابليون هيل " فكر تصبح غنياً "
وسُمى بعد التعديل " فكر وازداد ثراء "
أرى أنه كتابٌ يحوى ضفتين من الحديث، ضقة روحانية، وضفة عملية علمية ..

الضفه الروحانيه يتحدث كما لو أنه تقمس كتاب السر " the secret "، حيث يتحدث عن تجريد الأفكار من فقّعاتها لتسقط وتتحق على أرض الواقع، ولابد من الإيمان والإيحاء الإيجابى الدائم، وهذا الجزء أحترمه، ولكن لا أحبذه بدرجة كبيرة، اعرف أنه لابد من الثقة بالنفس وعدم التزعزع فى تحقيق الأهداف، وإذا فعلت هذا بشغف وأهتمام كامل، فسيتحقق بالتأكيد ..

ولكن أكره فكرة التعبير والذبذبات الأثيرية الذى يتم التحدث عنها، وبطبيعة البشر التى تحبذ معرفة كل الأسباب لكل شيئ، فهذا التفسير لا أقتنع به كثيراً.
...
الضفة العلميه والعمليه تحوى على جانب جيد ومفيد جداً، يتحدث عن التركيز والاهتمام بهدف واحد وعدم تشتيت العقل ..
وضع خطط منظمة للوصول لما تريده..
إحاطة نفسك بالأشخاص التى تسعفك وتخلق معك أفكار جديدة ..
عدم السماح لأى شخص بالتأثير عليك..
عدم التردد فى اتخاذ القرارات ..
تجنب الخوف والقلق والتوتر فهم من مسببات الخيال والابداع.. وهكذا


وأخيرا أختم كلامى بجملة مقتبسة من الكتاب
ان الحياة هى لوحة شطرنج ، واللاعب المنافس هو الوقت، واذا ماترددت قبل القيام بحركتك او اهملت القيام بحركتك سريعا
ستزاح أحجارك من فوق اللوحة بمرور الوقت، فانت تلعب أمام منافس لا يتحمل التردد

No more alibis

I am now ready to use the master key and enjoy the abundance in life, control my mind, create burning passion, consistently think about what I wanted to achieve and its purpose, establish harmony with life and people around me, have a concrete plan, consistently implement and strategize without any fear. Thank you, Napoleon!

I read 138 pages of what is basically filler nonsense. Look, believing in yourself is a good thing but economics are more complicated than simply that. Hill makes making millions of dollars into the same process as something more simple like talking to a women you like or losing weight. It’s really not the same thing. Maybe I’m wrong, but it all seems too simple to me.

What can I say about this book that hasn't been said by millions of people who read it in the decades since it was published? It was praised by so many, generation after generation. All I can add is what this book meant for me.
Every once in awhile comes a book that feels like it changes ones DNA. That while you are reading it you physically change. That your ideas about what life is, and what you want from it change. This is what this book did to me.
It made me question basic assumptions I made about myself that I didn't even know where assumptions! I thought they were - "My character" or "What's given". I took my time reading this one. I let things sink before I moved on and I know that I will re-read this book in the future.
The main areas that this book changed for me are - new definition of what is "possible" for one person to achieve and a new level of ambition to go and achieve it, it also gives the tools of how one can start doing the "impossible".
This book that has been written almost a century ago is still very relevant today. Napoleons writing is smooth and easy. I highly recommend this book to anyone who has dreams and wants to keep pushing himself and keep developing.

The riches begin with a state of mind, with definiteness of purpose and with little or no hard work. We should have faith within ourselves, our ideas and work. Faith is basically a state of mind which may be induced or created by affirmation or repeated instructions to the subconscious mind through the principle of auto-suggestion.

Auto suggestion applies to all suggestions and are self-administered stimuli which reaches one’s mind through our senses.

The initial few chapters were really good and then the author decided to go all pro-capitalism and America out of no where which for me was a downside as it broke the tempo.

Knowledge is only potential power, however it becomes power only when and if it’s organised into definite plans of actions and directed towards a definite end.

Probably the first ever book which actually makes sense about plans and their fulfillments. It takes a lot of courage to not give up and keep going when things are tough but that’s the only key to success - always move one step ahead in your journey even if you can’t take it anymore.

A good Self help book which shows that thinking and what you think in your mind can change everything. This book shows that having desires can only help you achieve your goals. Thinking fiercely that you want to Be rich is the only way to become rich. If u don't think about it then its not gonna happen. I got this classic book for free on Kindle store (on 29 JAN 2020)

My 200th book! And proudly so.

I have to admit, I picked this book with an attitude of it being maximum three stars, and expecting just regular I-heard-it-before piece of motivational phrases and stories. Ha. My silliness continues to astonish me.

Unexpectedly, the book impacted me. Greatly. I started reading it as a very confused person, but now I have defined goals for my career and personal life. It has changed me, gave me a guidance that I really needed. And I am surprised a book can do that. But, maybe, I’ve just read it at the right time and place in my life.

First I must point out and compliment book’s structure. If you, just like me, adore lists — this is the book. As an example, there are lists of “symptoms of lack of persistance”, “thirty major causes of failure”, “the major attributes of leadership” and so many more. The information is organised, thighly summed up and is perfect for learning.

The book is also practical, it gives you useful steps you should take and even has advice on CV. But, mostly, it is about your mindset, attitude and limiting beliefs that may be holding you back from having better things in life. And, if you ask me, mindset is more important than your CV.

Overall, unexpectedly great, as stingy as I felt to give it 5 stars, the last chapters just made me do it. I recommend. Wholeheartedly.
