Notes from "Outwitting the devil"

"Fear is the tool of a man made devil. Self-confident faith in one's self is both man-made weapon which defeats this devil and the man made tool which builds a triumphant life. And is more than that. It is link to irresistible forces of the universe which stand behind a man who does not believe in failure and defeat as being anything but temporary experiences

-Napoleon Hill

"Most real failures are due to limitations which men setup in their own minds."

A negative mindset and self doubt can be the primary obstacle to success.

"Again I became 'fidgety' inside. I was not happy. It became more obvious everyday that no amount of money would ever make me happy."

Can you think of a time in your life when you made a difficult decision.. but knew it was the right one even when others questioned you?

"The worst of all human ailments: Indecision." Have you ever felt paralyzed by indecision?

Loss is painful, guilt can be devastating. Worse than losing one's dream is the knowledge that the loss was self-inflicted. Problems are solutions that have outlived their usefulness. Problems are pattern that were learned in emotional circumstances during one period of life and that now have taken an existence of their own.

It is this problem focus that prevents them from appreciating what they are doing right, that blinds them to solutions alrea...

Three Choices

When we are unhappy and our Life Conditions do not match our Blueprint, we have three choices as to how we’re going to handle the challenge: First Choice: Blame The first choice people have is to assign blame, and there are three things you can blame: a) Event . There’s a story, something that happened, behind why things are the way they are. However accurate the story may be, blaming an event is convenient because it helps preserve an identity designed to shield us from our true fears: fear of failure and fear of not being loved or accepted. b) Others . “I’m in this situation because this person …” Similarly, the story may be true, but it’s convenient and gives you comfort in the moment. “There’s nothing wrong with me. It’s this other person. There’s nothing I need to change.” c) Yourself . Most people think that this is being responsible, but blaming yourself will not make it better. There’s a difference between responsibility and beating yourself up—between “Here’s a pattern th...

Wealth File #15 Rich people have their money work hard for them. Poor people work hard for their money

Working hard is important, but working hard alone will never make you rich. Rich people can spend their days playing and relaxing because they work smart. They understand and use leverage. They employ other people to work for them and their money to work for them. You do have to work hard for money. For rich people, however, this is a temporary situation. For poor people, it's permanent.. Rich people understand that "you" have to work hard until your "money" works hard enough to take your place they understand the more your money works, the less you will have to work.

Rich people think long-term. They balance their spending on enjoyment today with investing for freedom tomorrow. Poor people think short-term. They run their lives based on immediate gratifications.
