The Napoleon Hill Foundation
Making the world a better place in which to live.

Dear Readers,Financial independence begins with realizing that part of all you earn is yours to keep. Once you decide that you will pay yourself first, setting aside a portion of your paycheck for savings before spending money on anything else, you have planted yourself firmly on the road to wealth. Saving one-tenth of your income forms a good habit that enables you to continue the practice throughout your income-earning life.

Think back to the example of the farmer: the earnings you save can be compared to the seeds that are planted, and the sooner you plant the seeds, the sooner your wealth will grow. As Algamish tells Arkad, “Wealth, like a tree, grows from a tiny seed. The first copper you save is the seed from which your tree of wealth shall grow.

The sooner you plant that seed the sooner shall the tree grow. And the more faithfully you nourish and water that tree with consistent savings, the sooner you may bask in contentment beneath its shade.” It is never too late to develop the habit of saving, but every day that you put it off is another day that you are preventing your money from working for you.

I wish you the best,

Don Green
Executive Director

“When I read Think and Grow Rich for the second time so long ago, I realized that I held the recipe for success in my hands. It was the key to everything — financial security, personal relationships, happiness … it could be used to achieve anything of value. It could be done by anybody and it could be done by me. There was just one catch. It’s up to me.”
Dr. J.B. Hill

“I remember the first time we received email correspondence from Dr. JB Hill. We could not believe it was Napoleon Hill’s grandson! He was sincerely interested in going through his Grandfather’s PMA: Science of Success course. He signed up and that began a correspondence that eventually led to him being placed on the board for the Napoleon Hill Foundation. He found great value in the material and he knew that if he was to benefit from it he had to actually go through the process. I know that you will find great value in this pinnacle of Napoleon Hill’s philosophy of success.”

Remember the acorn and the handful of earth. Locked up within that acorn is the germ of life, the nucleus which is capable of drawing from its surrounding elements of soil, air, water, and sunlight, the materials to build an oak tree.

Take a seed of corn or wheat; plant it in the ground and it will create a center of activity which attracts from its environment the precise balance of chemical constituents which will produce a cornstalk, or a stalk of wheat, and bring forth a reproduction of itself, according to the law of growth and increased returns.

These analogies help us to get a true picture of the power of the mind through self-suggestion. You can see how it is possible to sow a seed of desire with the subconscious mind through conscious expressed repetition of this desire . . . to feed and nourish this seed by the stimulus of high emotion . . . to germinate it by the sunshine of faith, and thus to attract to yourself from the bounteous supply of life energy in Infinite Intelligence the practical plans whereby that original seed of desire may be developed into its physical counterpart.

The law of attraction is based upon the principle of growth from the vitality which is inherent in the seed (idea or desire) itself. Every seed has a potentially perfect plant. Every worthy desire has in it the potential power for its perfect fulfillment. If a seed is to germinate and produce a crop after its own kind, it must be planted in fertile soil, it must have nourishment, and it must have sunshine to ripen it for harvest.

Your subconscious mind can be compared to a fertile garden spot wherein may be planted the seed of your definite purpose, by means of a burning desire which imparts the initial energy into the nucleus of your definite purpose, and causes it to enlarge and grow. Now we have explained how the seed may be nourished and cultivated by persistent action according to your plans and through repeated instructions to your subconscious. Also how you may attract the vitalizing influence of Infinite Intelligence and focus it on the object of your desire. Here you have the whole process laid before you. It is a process which is going on all around you in countless forms of life. It is not a matter of theory. It is a demonstrated fact. You have only to adapt it to your own definite purpose.

Behind Prison Walls

A light can shine the brightest in the darkest places. It’s hard for me to think of anywhere more helpless and hopeless than a prison cell, but even within that environment, Robert Miller became transformed through the power of the message from Napoleon Hill.

Dear Mr. Napoleon Hill,

My name is Robert Miller and I am writing you today to share how much your books have had a positive influence on my otherwise wasted life. You see, I have spent most of my adult life in and
out of jails and prisons. Drugs, alcohol, and a criminal lifestyle were a way of life for me. I was tired, I wanted out, but I didn’t know how to make the changes I needed to be able to become a more productive and valued member of society.

Mind you, despite my destructive and dangerous lifestyle, I have always believed in the Lord, and He has saved me from myself many times over the years. During my last “set,” which was very lengthy, I longed for guidance. I went to church services, joined self-help groups, and went to AA/NA. But I never found what I needed to make the changes I sought in myself.

One day I saw a listing on the board for an upcoming seminar on Personal Finance and Small Business Ownership, presented by Steve Coplon and the Right Thinking Foundation. I immediately signed up and was later glad I did.

Steve, who was later to become my good friend and mentor, introduced the Napoleon Hill Foundation to the prison and myself through the many books he left with us such as: Think and Grow Rich, Outwitting the Devil, How to Own Your Own Mind, Road to Success, and many others. I not only found hope for a future but the guidance and roadmap for the path I am now taking that has kept me on the straight and narrow.

Napoleon, I am very grateful to our Lord Jesus for the wonderful insights and inspiration I have found by reading your books and for the hope in a future your wisdom has given me—well spent in His name.

Very Sincerely Yours,

Robert Miller

A Millionaire Vision
by Don Green

In A Millionaire Vision, Don Green takes readers on an inspiring journey from humble beginnings to achieving a vision of wealth, not just in material terms, but in richness of life. Raised in a small house without modern conveniences, Green’s story is a testament to the power of vision, goal-setting, and relentless effort. Working for minimal wages, he set his sights high, aiming for no less than a millionaire’s life filled with success symbols like a black Mercedes and a gold Presidential Rolex watch.

Through vivid narratives, Green shares how his early fascination with the biographies of great men and personal development leaders like Napoleon Hill and Brian Tracy laid the foundation for his own path to success. His practical use of a vision board, setting clear and tangible goals, and the profound realization that true success encompasses helping others, frames a blueprint for anyone aspiring to achieve their own dreams.

With contributions from Dr. J.B. Hill, who provides an esoteric perspective on the subconscious mind’s role in creating our reality, the book delves into the historical and psychological underpinnings of success. It explores the power of visualization and positive thinking, backed by stories that affirm the human potential to manifest desires into reality.
