Finale Law of success By Napoleon Hill

These four important associated principles are:

1. Cosmic Habit force: The principle through which Nature forces everyone to take on and become a part of the environmental influences that control their thinking.  

2. Drifting: The habit of mental indifference, through which an individual allows chance and circumstance to fasten their environmental influences on them.

3. Time: The factor with which Cosmic Habit-force weaves together an individual's dominating thoughts and the influences of their environment, and transforms them into stumbling blocks or steppingstones according to their nature.  

4. Definiteness of Purpose: The only medium, under the control of an individual, with which Cosmic Habit-force may be controlled. 

LIVES OF GREAT MEN ALL REMIND US WE CAN MAKE OUR LIVES SUBLIME, AND, DEPARTING, LEAVE BEHIND US FOOTPRINTS IN THE SANDS OF TIME. 

-Henry Wadsworth Longfellow 

Millions of people go through life without knowing what it is they want. All have a purpose, but only two out of every hundred have a definite purpose. 

Nothing is impossible to the person who knows what it is that they want and makes up their mind to acquire it!

Opportunity, capital, Cooperation from others, and all other essentials for success gravitate to the person who knows what they want. Vitalize your mind with a definite purpose and immediately your mind becomes a magnet which attracts everything that harmonizes with that purpose. 

Not one of the soldiers in your standing army is powerful enough alone to ensure success. Remove a single one of them and the entire army would be weakened. 

The powerful person is the one who has developed, in their own mind, the entire seventeen qualities represented by the seventeen commanding officers of this standing army. You must watch for every opportunity to apply and empower the law of the Master Mind.  

HERE LIES A MAN WHO KNEW HOW TO ENLIST THE SERVICE OF BETTER MEN THAN HIMSELF. 

-tombstone of Andrew Carnegie 

Before you can have power you must have a Definite Chief Aim -a definite purpose.
You must have Self-Confidence with which to back up your purpose.
You must have Initiative and Leadership with which to exercise your Self-Confidence.
You must have Imagination in creating your definite purpose and in building the plans with which to transform that purpose into reality and put your plans into action.
You must mix Enthusiasm with your action or it will be bland and weak.
You must exercise Self-Control.
You must form the Habit of Doing More Than Paid For. You must cultivate a Pleasing Personality.
You must acquire the Habit of Saving.
You must use Accurate Thinking, remembering, as you develop this quality, that accurate thought is based upon facts and not upon hearsay evidence or mere information.
You must form the habit of Concentration by giving your undivided attention to but one task at a time.
You must acquire the habit of Cooperation and practice it in all your plans.
You must Profit by Failure, your own and that of others.
You must cultivate the habit of Tolerance.
You must make the Golden Rule the foundation of all you do that affects other people.
You must make use of the Universal Law of Cosmic Habit-force, through which all of these principles can be applied to transform not only your thoughts but also your habits.

Each day, one by one, call your seventeen soldiers out of the line and study them. Make sure that the counterpart of each is developed in your own mind.

All efficient armies are well-disciplined. The army that you are building in your own mind must also be disciplined. It must obey your command at every step.

When you call out of the line the fourteenth soldier, Failure, remember that nothing will go as far toward developing discipline as will failure and temporary defeat. While you are comparing yourself with this soldier, determine whether or not you have been profiting by your own failures and temporary defeats.

Failure comes to all at one time or another. Make sure, when it comes your way, that you will learn something of value from its visit. It would not visit you if there was not room for it in your makeup.

To make progress in this world you must rely solely upon the forces within your own mind for your start. After this start has been made you may turn to others for aid, but the first step must be taken without outside aid. It will then surprise you to observe how many willing people you will encounter who will volunteer to assist you.

Success is made up of many facts and factors, chiefly of the seventeen qualities represented by these seventeen soldiers. To enjoy a well rounded success, one must appropriate as many of these seventeen qualities as may be missing in one's own inherited ability.

A definite purpose may be transformed into reality only when one believes it can be done, and that belief must be backed with unqualified faith.Perhaps the inexplicable law that turns prayer based upon faith into reality, also transforms into reality a definite purpose that is founded upon belief. It can do no harm if you make your definite purpose in life the object of your daily prayer.

Develop in your own mind all of the seventeen qualities and you will find that the application of faith is not difficult. Master these seventeen qualities and you will have the power to get whatever you want in life-without violating the rights of others.

REMEMBER THAT YOUR REAL WEALTH CAN BE MEASURED NOT BY WHAT YOU HAVE, BUT BY WHAT YOU ARE.
