The majority of us humans want to become rich, probably like 99 %. However, the hardest part of becoming successful is where to start and to actually sustain that mindset which successful people has.
Think And Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill is the ultimate book if you want to be successful. The book has sold over 15 million copies worldwide and many successful people have this book to thank for their success. Two of the most influential people that come to my mind is Bruce Lee and Tony Robbins who have greatly used Think And Grow Rich as their guide to success.
What this book is about, without going into too much in detail, is what mindset you must have and how to behave in any given situation. Your mind shall always think of what is possible, not of the things which are not. This is because everything is hard and tough in the beginning. If you have a mindset which focuses on that nothing is possible for poor me, nothing will ever happen and you will stay poor.
Second is how you behave. What I mean by this is that our habits have to be consciously implemented. If we don't know what we are doing, it's hard to know when we are going to get that large pile of cash.
Napoleon Hill emphasizes greatly what the impact of the mindset you have has. This is my own analogy, but if you think about it, every rapper raps about money and in the end, they get it.
However, even though success for most people is to have a lot of money, Napoleon disagree with this on one point, heritage. You are not successful only because you are rich, success is the journey to becoming someone you want to become. To someone, 1 000 000 dollars is nothing but to you it is everything.
Read this lines carefully and think about it:
Success is the journey itself to becoming successful. It's because success starts with the mindset, an idea, a dream. When you have the mindset of success, you will eventually become successful.
