Napoleon Hill’s well-known book Think and Grow Rich sought to address issues like success and wealth are merely matters of fortune or if there exist specific rules behind them.

Andrew Carnegie, an American business magnate, gave Napoleon Hill a special task, interviewing the most successful people on earth and revealing the secrets of their accomplishments.
Over 25 years, he investigated nearly a million successes and failures, met more than 500 millionaires—among them, Thomas Edison, Henry Ford, and Alexander Graham Bell—and analyzed thousands of people.
When applied diligently, he separated general basic success ideas that could lead any person to the brink of success.
Success starts with a clear goal. Failure to define one’s goal will prevent him from attaining greatness. Belief in one tends to produce success.
Repeating good thought results in decisions, deeds, and habits that in turn shape reality. Certainly not. Expertise in any sector is what will propel a person to the top; general knowledge is not so.
Dreams become reality with creativity and activity. Success results more from a well-organized effort than from effort alone. Ultimately, success follows resolution as well as willpower more than failure.
In the grand scheme of things, success follows determination and willpower more than failure.
According to Napoleon Hill, a person attracts riches and success by positively controlling and focusing their thoughts.
The direction in which an individual thinks will affect his life, and embracing a success-oriented attitude will help him define a successful future.
