Think and Grow Rich

Napoleon Hill

Recommended by 1 person on the record.

The bar next to each date shows how long ago it was said: 6d is days, 4yr is years.

Jason Evanish liked it affiliate
What if someone devoted their life to understanding why some people become hugely successful above all others? Napoleon Hill was challenged by steel magnate Andrew Carnegie to do just that, and this book is the product of his 20 year journey to uncover those secrets. The book reads a little self-help cheesy at times, but it speaks a lot of truths. It's also fascinating to see how his writings about the average person's outlook in the Great Depression isn't that different than today's Great Recession.

That little bar

It says how long ago something was said, so you can tell last month from 2014 without doing the arithmetic. Full and green is recent; it drains and cools as the date gets older, and empties completely at about 6 years.

A striped bar means the date itself is an estimate — the source did not carry an exact one. An entry with no date at all gets no bar.
