Interesting piece of advice and it is for sure very pragmatic as it can help you become a winner is many situations that your mind just decides not to win and ruin with style.

Boy how can anybody that has at least two normally functioning intelligent brain cells actually beleive that “The Secret” has any validity in making anybody rich, happy, in love with the exact right person, etc, etc be called a human being? This rubbish is so obviously the biggest hoax of the past several years – and people are all excited and when by coincidence they get some kind of improvement they are converts. WAKE UP AND TRASH ANYTHING EXCEPT POSITIVE THINKING> The Universe is inanimate and cannot replace God – God created the Universe !!!

You mean you arent offering it free or some never before uncovered gem. I love motivational books to read the only trouble is a lot of them like diet and diet books wont work unless something in there gets you to get off that cloud and look in the mirror where your problem lies.

Rob the use of you and your is not directed at you, it is used figuratively.
I enjoyed the article.

Thanks for taking the time to reply, Ross. I’m glad you liked the post.

Can you tell my readers how long you worked on the update and why you decided it was necessary? For nearly 50 years the popular abridged version was the standard… what’s the compelling thing that makes the new version a must for people interested in the book?

Thanks!

P.S. Thanks for catching my Dale/Andrew mistake.

I enjoyed reading your excellent piece “Six ways writers can profit from THINK AND GROW RICH” today, and I thought that you might be interested to learn that a new edition of Napoleon Hill’s classic book “Think and Grow Rich” has been published.

(To offer one correction: It was Andrew Carnege, not Dale Carnegie, who encouraged Hill to spend more than 20 years studying the lives of successful people whose doors Carnegie would open for him.)

The book’s title is “Think and Grow Rich!” (subtitled) “The Original Version, Restored and Revised,” and it defintely should be in the hands of everyone who wishes to understand the practical steps — and the hard and dedicated effort — it takes to achieve real success in life. I am the editor/annotator of this new 416-page edition, which is really an homage to Dr. Hill. (For several years I was the editor-in-chief of “Think & Grow Rich Newsletter.”)

What I have done is this: to restore Dr. Hill’s book to its original manuscript content (it was first published in 1937, but was abridged in 1960), annotate it with more than 50 pages of endnotes (most of the persons and events he discusses are generally unknown to readers today), index it thoroughly, add an appendix with a wealth of additional information about Dr. Hill and his work, and revise the book in ways to help remove certain “impediments” to reading the book today (language that today would be considered obsolete, sexist or racist). None of these things had previously been done with TGR.

If you would like to learn a little more about this project, a quick visit to http://www.tgr-restored-revised.com will give you some details. The “Editor’s Foreword” provides more complete information, and the “Testimonials” page will demonstrate how well-received this new book is around the world.

Here is the book’s Amazon.com page.

The book is available on all the Amazon websites and most other online sellers, it can be ordered by any bookstore, and it will start appearing in bookstores soon.

Our edition of TGR! is superior in every way to other versions on the market. It is a trade paperback, not a pocket-size mass market paperback. It is unabridged. It is 416 pages versus 230+ (depending on the edition). It looks better, feels better, reads better than any other version. It is fast becoming the “version of choice” among Napoleon Hill devotees and other students of success and high achievement.

Thank you for your time and attention.

Ross Cornwell, Editor
