Positive Mental Attitude:
A System of Success
Sign up today!
Dear Student of Napoleon Hill,
This online distance learning course presents and examines the principles of success researched and developed by Dr. Napoleon Hill and others. It provides a framework for students to better understand life’s opportunities and the need for definiteness of purpose.
The class is based on and structured around Hill’s 17 Principles of Success. Each lesson focuses on one principle and contains online reading assignments, points to ponder, chapter quizzes, Napoleon Hill vintage audio and just released video, articles from the Think and Grow Rich and PMA Adviser newsletters, class discussion questions, journal writing assignments and, other activities that help reinforce the principle being studied. Each student in the class has a personalized relationship with a fully accredited and approved instructor for Napoleon Hill Distance Learning Courses. The class concludes with an assignment dealing with an individualized plan for personal success.
It is because we sincerely feel that every reader of Think and Grow Rich should go on into this post graduate course, that we take the liberty here of giving a few brief side lights upon this brilliant work. Napoleon Hill’s Course presents the true Philosophy upon which all lasting success is built. Ideas, when translated into intelligent plans of action, are the beginning of all successful achievement. So this course proceeds to show you how to create practical ideas for every human need. It does it in easy-to-understand lessons. Napoleon Hill spent the better part of twenty-five years in perfecting this Philosophy of Success.
During the long years he has worked on it, some parts or the whole of it, have been reviewed and praised by many of the greatest Americans of our times. Among them are included four Presidents of the United States, Theodore Roosevelt, Woodrow Wilson, Warren G. Harding, Wm. H. Taft; Thomas Edison, Luther Burbank, Wm. J. Wrigley, Alexander Graham Bell, Judge E. H. Gary, Cyrus H. K. Curtis, Edward Bok, E.M. Statler — dozens of glowing names in Politics, Finance, Education, Invention.
Don’t waste your own precious years blindly searching for the hidden road to the heights. Profit by the dearly brought experience of America’s leaders. Over 500 great and prominent men of America were minutely analyzed — their methods, motives, strategy — to find out the secrets that put them on top. No matter whether you are rich or poor — you have one asset as great as the richest man living — and that is TIME. But with each setting sun you become one day older, and have one day less in which to attain the success and wealth you desire. Thousands of progressive people throughout the North American continent have realized this mighty truth, and have sought the help so clearly and inspiringly taught in Napoleon Hill. You cannot afford to let day after day slip into eternity, without getting possession of this course. You will profit greatly from the lessons in Think and Grow Rich. You will take even more brilliant and gratifying rewards from this course. The cost is trifling; the benefits are tremendous.

“Any business whose management has the foresight to adopt a policy which consolidates management, employees and the public it serves in a spirit of team work, provides itself with an insurance policy against failure.” ~Napoleon Hill

“I am a graduate of my Grandfather’s philosophy. I studied Napoleon Hill for years, reading Think and Grow Rich now eight times. I even used his philosophy to change my life —twice! In spite of this, the course pulled the philosophy all together for me and gave me a deeper understanding!”
~ Dr. J.B. Hill
(Napoleon Hill’s Grandson)

Dear Readers,
I have learned that so-called hunches or ideas are similar to intentions. Ideas and intentions are worthless unless they are acted on and brought to fruition. Let me give you a recent example: As noted before, I spent 38 years in finance and banking, 36 of which were in management—including nearly two decades as CEO. The bank had been on the list to be closed because it had lost all its capital and was insolvent until I was hired. Newspaper and magazine articles were written about its performance; one magazine called the bank “a diamond in the rough.” This is another story that has been told elsewhere, but it is only natural that the banking business is still in me.
More than three years ago, as of this writing, I saw that the real estate market was getting into trouble.
I picked up the phone and called James Oleson, a stockbroker with A. G. Edwards (now a part of Wells Fargo), and told him to sell every share of stock I owned. Jim asked, “What’s going on? Don’t you know that with all the profits you have, you will owe a lot of taxes?” I said, “Jim, I know that, but the stocks have been very profitable and capital gains taxes are only 15 percent, which I will be happy to pay because I think the whole economy is going to be in trouble with the mortgage industry in trouble.”
When I saw the economy going downhill, I got the idea of doing a book on persistence. Recalling one of W. Clement Stone’s personal books in my library, Cycles by Edward Dewey, my thinking came together. This book, which Mr. Stone had read, studied, and made numerous annotations in, told me that the economy does not always move in one direction. With the financial future threatened, it was a time to be persistent and not be defeated. I had the idea of teaching the timely need of persistence.
In Think and Grow Rich!, Hill told the story of R. U. Darby, a gold prospector who quit three feet from a rich vein of gold. I wanted to interview people and ask them why they did not quit when they were faced with obstacles. Knowing that this was a formidable job, and as I was the executive director of the Napoleon Hill Foundation, I obtained the assistance of authors Greg S. Reid and Sharon L. Lechter, and the result was Three Feet from Gold, published by Sterling Publishing (owned by Barnes & Noble).
The book became a bestseller on Amazon, Barnes & Noble Online, and the Wall Street Journal within three weeks of going on sale. The book, which is being licensed all over the world, started with a simple idea that was acted on.
I wish you the best,
Don Green
Executive Director

THE “thirteenth” principle is known as the SIXTH SENSE, through which Infinite Intelligence may, and will communicate voluntarily, without any effort from, or demands by, the individual.
This principle is the apex of the philosophy. It can be assimilated, understood, and applied ONLY by first mastering the other twelve principles.
The SIXTH SENSE is that portion of the subconscious mind which has been referred to as the Creative Imagination. It has also been referred to as the “receiving set” through which ideas, plans, and thoughts flash into the mind. The “flashes” are sometimes called “hunches” or “inspirations.”
The sixth sense defies description! It cannot be described to a person who has not mastered the other principles of this philosophy, because such a person has no knowledge, and no experience with which the sixth sense may be compared. Understanding of the sixth sense comes only by meditation through mind development from within. The sixth sense probably is the medium of contact between the finite mind of man and Infinite Intelligence, and for this reason, it is a mixture of both the mental and the spiritual. It is believed to be the point at which the mind of man contacts the Universal Mind.
After you have mastered the principles described in this book, you will be prepared to accept as truth a statement which may, otherwise, be incredible to you, namely:
Through the aid of the sixth sense, you will be warned of impending dangers in time to avoid them, and notified of opportunities in time to embrace them.
There comes to your aid, and to do your bidding, with the development of the sixth sense, a “guardian angel” who will open to you at all times the door to the Temple of Wisdom.
Whether or not this is a statement of truth, you will never know, except by following the instructions described in the pages of this book, or some similar method of procedure.
The author is not a believer in, nor an advocate of “miracles,” for the reason that he has enough knowledge of Nature to understand that Nature never deviates from her established laws. Some of her laws are so incomprehensible that they produce what appears to be “miracles.” The sixth sense comes as near to being a miracle as anything I have ever experienced, and it appears so, only because I do not understand the method by which this principle is operated.
This much the author does know—that there is a power, or a First Cause, or an Intelligence, which permeates every atom of matter, and embraces every unit of energy perceptible to man—that this Infinite Intelligence converts acorns into oak trees, causes water to flow down hill in response to the law of gravity, follows night with day, and winter with summer, each maintaining its proper place and relationship to the other. This Intelligence may, through the principles of this philosophy, be induced to aid in transmuting DESIRES into concrete, or material form. The author has this knowledge, because he has experimented with it—and has EXPERIENCED IT.
Step by step, through the preceding chapters, you have been led to this, the last principle. If you have mastered each of the preceding principles, you are now prepared to accept, without being skeptical, the stupendous claims made here. If you have not mastered the other principles, you must do so before you may determine, definitely, whether or not the claims made in this chapter are fact or fiction.
The sixth sense is not something that one can take off and put on at will. Ability to use this great power comes slowly, through application of the other principles outlined in this book. Seldom does any individual come into workable knowledge of the sixth sense before the age of forty. More often the knowledge is not available until one is well past fifty, and this, for the reason that the spiritual forces, with which the sixth sense is so closely related, do not mature and become usable except through years of meditation, self-examination, and serious thought.
No matter who you are, or what may have been your purpose in reading this book, you can profit by it without understanding the principle described in this chapter. This is especially true if your major purpose is that of accumulation of money or other material things.
The chapter on the sixth sense was included, because the book is designed for the purpose of presenting a complete philosophy by which individuals may unerringly guide themselves in attaining whatever they ask of life. The starting point of all achievement is DESIRE. The finishing point is that brand of KNOWLEDGE which leads to understanding— understanding of self, understanding of others, understanding of the laws of Nature, recognition and understanding of HAPPINESS.

Expanding the Horizon
Jim Stovall
I have just finished a fascinating book about the life and voyages of Ferdinand Magellan. Between 1519 and 1521, he led the first voyage that sailed completely around the globe. Although he was killed before the voyage ended, it was his vision and leadership that made this unparalleled feat possible.
You are probably asking yourself, “What does this have to do with me, here in the 21st century?” Always a good question to ask. I believe that history has a lot to teach us about humanity, both good and bad. Good things from history can save us time as we move toward our goals in life. Bad things from history can help us to avoid the pitfalls. Lessons not learned from the past are certain to be learned in the future as history
repeats itself.
Magellan, in a small 50-foot boat, launched out into uncharted waters on a voyage the scope of which has never been duplicated before or since. At a time when there was still debate as to whether or not the world was round—and even if it were round, were there navigable routes to circle the world—Magellan began his epic trip.
The only current analogy to Magellan’s trip would be to launch you into space at the speed of light to an unknown galaxy where you would have to find food and fuel in order to stay alive and make your way back to earth. While none of us are prepared to take on an adventure of that magnitude, we must constantly expand horizons in our own mind, body, and spirit.
We should all commit to an ongoing expedition within our own personal and professional development. What things are you going to know, master, create, or achieve in the coming months and years that are beyond your known horizon today? Before we are able to expand the things we plan to do in the future, we must first open our minds to expanding the possibilities that exist before us. Just because you haven’t gone somewhere before in your life doesn’t mean that place or achievement or goal does not exist.
We must constantly expand horizons in
our own mind, body, and spirit.
As you go through your day, seek to expand the horizons or the realm of possibility in your life.
Today’s the day!

Self-Confidence Formula
by Napoleon Hill
Your formula to build a strong sense of self-worth so that you can better recognize opportunity, take action on your dreams, and enhance your resilience.
A lack of self-confidence is one of the greatest maladies of today’s world, one that is responsible for the rampant helplessness, lack of self-control, aimlessness, procrastination, and despair that characterize modern society. But as the venerable steel magnate Andrew Carnegie emphasized to Hill, “Confidence is a state of mind, necessary to succeed, and the starting point of developing self-confidence is definiteness of purpose.”
The time for self-doubt and self-criticism is over. Your faith in yourself and your abilities determines whether you fail or succeed. Napoleon Hill’s Self-Confidence Formula enables you to boost your self-confidence through the application of Hill’s strategies for controlling your thoughts. By implementing these principles, you will not only be able to operate at a higher plane of thought and action—attracting more opportunities, gaining influence, and strengthening relationships—but you will also be able to instill this critical quality in others.
Napoleon Hill’s Self-Confidence Formula gives you the keys to success and fulfillment by equipping you to:
• unlearn fears, insecurities, and limitations acquired in childhood and adolescence
• condition your mind to believe in the certainty of your success
• take bold, confident action on your definite chief aim
• conquer your inferiority complex through the mastermind principle
• build the self-reliance and self-esteem of today’s youth
You are now on the journey to confident, purposeful living. As you implement Hill’s principles, you will cultivate a state of mind primed to accept the abundance reserved for you.
