Napoleon Hill Laws Of Success – Learn The Secrets of How To Think Rich

Napoleon Hill's Laws Of SuccessNapoleon Hill spent over 25 years studying over 500 rich and successful people. These included Henry Ford, Thomas Edison, and Rockefeller.  

Here is what he learned, boiled down, to create Napoleon Hill’s Laws Of Success. There is also a video of Napoleon himself explaining his principals, later in this article. This is life changing stuff – enjoy…

Napoleon Hill was one of the pioneers of the idea that you can change your mindset with autosuggestion and other techniques, in order to think like someone who is rich.

(There are some details at the end of this article about a hypnotherapy session I made using many of Napoleon Hill’s principals)

Hill believed that 98% of people had no firm beliefs, which places true success out of reach. He felt that without a definite purpose, you wander through life achieving very little.

Before him, most success literature focused on changing circumstances by working harder and saving money. Napoleon Hill showed that you should change yourself in order to be successful and wealthy.

How it all began…

Young Napoleon Hill Met Andrew Carnegie Whilst A Journalist

Hill was one of the first writers of modern genre personal success literature. In 1908, when still a journalist, he met Billionaire Andrew Carnegie to interview him.

According to Hill in his book ‘Think And Grow Rich’, Carnegie revealed to him the secrets of how to think rich. Hill described how the “canny, lovable old Scotsman carelessly tossed it into my mind, when I was but a boy. Then he sat back in his chair, with a merry twinkle in his eyes, and watched carefully to see if I had brains enough to understand the full significance of what he said to me.”

Carnegie seemed suitably impressed and asked Hill to spend 20 years, without pay, studying the minds of rich and successful people. Instead of pay, Carnegie provided him with the contacts and the means to approach all these successful people.

Hill accepted the challenge and spent 25 years studying more than 500 rich and successful people. These people included legends like Henry Ford, Thomas Edison, Theodore Roosevelt and Alexander Bell. Hill didn’t observe these people from afar – he spent hours over many years right by their side, watching, learning, and asking questions.

After closely studying over 500 successful people for 25 years, you can bet that Napoleon Hill knew his stuff. A major part of Napoleon Hill law of success was that you must have the desire to attain money. If you really desire it, then your unconscious mind is able to make the choices to make it happen. Here are Napoleon Hill’s laws of success…

Hill’s 6 steps to help manifest a desire for money…

1) Fix in your mind the exact amount of money you desire. It is not sufficient to say “I want plenty of money.” Be definite with the amount.

2) Determine exactly what you intend to give in return for the money you desire. (There is no such reality as “something for nothing”.)

3) Establish a definite date when you intend to possess the money you desire.

4) Create a definite plan for carrying out your desire, and begin at once. Whether you are ready or not, put this plan into action.

5) Write a clear concise statement of the amount of money you intend to acquire, the time limit for its acquisition. State what you intend to give in return, and describe clearly the plan which you intend to accumulate it.

6) Read your written statement aloud, twice daily, once before bed, and once after waking in the morning.

AS YOU READ–SEE AND FEEL AND BELIEVE YOURSELF ALREADY IN POSSESSION OF THE MONEY.

These 6 steps illustrate the power of the mind and how it can be used to attract what you want. They also illustrate how hypnosis can help bring massive changes to your life. Hypnosis is a good tool for changing your mind set, and it is essential to have the correct mind set to attain success.

According to Hill, these 6 steps ‘were carefully scrutinized by the late Thomas A. Edison, who placed his stamp of approval upon them as being, not only the steps essential for the accumulation of money, but necessary for the attainment of any definite goal.’

Napoleon Hill’s use of self hypnosis…

Napoleon Hill also talks more specifically about ‘suggestion’, which is essentially hypnosis.

“It is a well known fact that one comes, finally, to BELIEVE whatever one repeats to one’s self, whether the statement be true or false. If a man repeats a lie over and over, he will eventually accept the lie as truth. Moreover, he will BELIEVE it to be the truth. Every man is what he is, because of the DOMINATING THOUGHTS which he permits to occupy his mind.”

Thinking positively is a must, as is thinking about what you want. Repeatedly telling yourself positive things is a form of self hypnosis, and can make a difference to your mindset.

Napoleon Hill also discusses ‘autosuggestion’, which is the same as self hypnosis. All those years back, he realised that you can use certain techniques on yourself in order to help your unconscious mind think in a more successful way.

Hill’s self suggestion instructions to help you accumulate wealth…

1) Find a quiet spot (preferably in bed at night) where you will not be disturbed. Close your eyes, and repeat aloud, (so you may hear your own words) the written statement of the amount of money you intend to accumulate, the time limit for its accumulation, and a description of the service or merchandise you intend to give in return for the money. As you carry out these instructions, SEE YOURSELF ALREADY IN POSSESSION OF THE MONEY.

2) Repeat this program night and morning until you can see, (in your imagination) the money you intend to accumulate.

3) Place a written copy of your statement where you can see it night and morning, and read it just before retiring, and upon arising until it has been memorized.

When I discovered these writings, I was amazed that this knowledge existed so long ago. I find it amazing that these formulas for success are not more widely known. We spend so many years educating ourselves in the hope of money and success, yet we are not taught how to accumulate wealth. Thomas Edison achieved his amazing success with only 3 months of schooling.

“Whatever the mind of man can conceive and believe, it can achieve.”

All you need to do is find a way of convincing your unconscious mind that you are rich, you are successful, and you are capable. You must be specific in what you want. You must also desire this success and then go all out to make it happen. If you want it badly enough you will find a way.

“The best rose bush, after all, is not that which has the fewest thorns, but that which bears the finest roses.” Henry van Dyke

You MUST put the work in

To get the good things in life isn’t always easy. Napoleon Hill taught that you must work long and hard before enjoying the fruits of your labour. Anything worth having is worth working for. None of us have a divine right to have something for nothing.

Often I see people in business spend more time and energy in the pursuit of attaining something for nothing, rather than spend it providing something useful. That is why I always go that extra mile with every hypnosis product that I make. I know that the more effective and useful the product is for others, the more will eventually come my way. And I can tell you that it does work!

Hypnotherapy has borrowed many of Napoleon Hills teachings and it recognizes the need for the right mental state in order to be successful. Most modern self help books on success and wealth also owe a large debt to Napoleon Hill. This ‘new’ craze of the law of attraction is not new at all…

“…merely desiring an automobile will not cause that automobile to come rolling in, but, if there is a burning desire for an automobile, that desire will lead to the appropriate action through which an automobile may be paid for.” Napoleon Hill

Final thoughts

If you read his books you will tap into the fountain of his immense knowledge, regardless of how long ago they were written. He was so close to so many successful people for so long, that he had a unique knowledge that perhaps only he can express.

Many modern books are recycled versions of Hill’s work. Don’t miss out on his wisdom. Although he gives a lot of guidance, Hill does not specifically reveal the ultimate ‘secret’ of money and success, but gives many subtle hints throughout his writings. He felt that you must read his literature several times and discover “the secret” for yourself in order to get the full emotional and motivating impact.
