    Thoughts on Success - Part III

    This is the 3rd (and final) installment in a short series highlighting success literature I think everyone should read. Part I was a short review of Jack Canfield’s and Janet Switzer’s book, The Success Principles. Yesterday’s installment (Part II) focused on Success Is Not an Accident: Change Your Choices; Change Your Life, by Tommy Newberry.

    Today I’m going to recommend The Law of Success in Sixteen Lessons by Napoleon Hill.  Yes, this is the same guy who gave us Think and Grow Rich, the all-time best seller in the field of success books.

    In The Law of Success, Hill gives us a much meatier version of the success principles taught in Think and Grow Rich. It’s a longer read, but the principles are reinforced with more examples, so there are more “sticking points” that help you remember (and therefore apply) the concepts.

    Fans of The Secret (by Rhonda Byrne) will find Hill’s book to have a very practical approach to the same basic material (pretty cool, considering Hill wrote this book in 1917).

    Like I said up front in Part I, the material in these three books is not exhaustive, but I think together they give you 97 percent of what you need to know to achieve success.

    I imagine if you got copies of these books and passed them around at work, you would see some amazing things start to happen. In fact, that’s my challenge to you.  Let me know how it goes.

    By the way, feel free to add your comments about any of the books I’ve mentioned — or recommend another!
