"Keys To Success" – by Napoleon Hill
Recently I have been reading “Keys To Success” by Napoleon Hill
and I realized this is valuable information that everyone should
know.
Even though I highly recommend you get the book and
read it in its entirety, I am going to give a brief outline of if here.
This covers “The 17 Principles of Personal Achievement”
as defined by Dr. Napoleon Hill.
1. DEVELOP DEFINITENESS OF PURPOSE
a. The Advantages of Definiteness of Purpose –
Helps develop self-reliance, personal imitative,
Imagination, enthusiasm, self-discipline, and concentrated
effort.
b. Specialization – encourages you to specialize
and specialization leads to perfection.
c. Alertness to Opportunity – makes you aware
Of opportunities related to your major purpose,
And inspires the courage to act on them.
d. Faith – it opens you mind to the quality known
As faith. It makes your mind positive and frees
It from the limitations of doubt, discouragement,
Indecision, and procrastination that leads to
Roadblock.
e. The Power of the Subconscious – Any dominating
Idea, plan, or purpose held in your conscious mind t
hrough repeated effort and emotionalized by a
Burning desire for its realization is taken over the
The subconscious and acted upon through whatever
Natural and logical means available. The subconscious
mind receives and image that is transferred to it by
the conscious mind under strong emotion.
f. Putting Definiteness of Purpose To Work –
Creating a Plan – No one get something for nothing.
People who have money to give will expect to receive
something in return” a product, a service, an
increase in their own capital. You will not be
successful until you have returned to everyone
who has aided you everything he or she is due.
you definite purpose must include provisions
for doing this.
g. Success Is a Worthy Goal –
If you are going to achieve success, you will
do so only by extraordinary effort, effort that
most people are not willing to make. Most people would
not choose to be as dedicated to a definite major
purpose as you must be.
h. Creating Opportunity – There is not scarcity of
Opportunity. There is only shortage of imagination.
Countless people gain new wealth every year, whether the
economy is prospering or ailing.
2. ESTABLISH A MASTERMIND ALLIANCE
A. mastermind alliance is built on two or more
minds working actively together in perfect
harmony toward a common definite object.
a. Forming a Mastermind Alliance –
Step 1 – Determine Your Purpose – You must be
Certain that the purpose of the alliance is either
The same as yours or very closely aligned.
Step 2 – Select the Members of Your Alliance
There are two qualities to keep foremost in your
Mind that will help you avoid too many surprises
When choosing your alliance (1) ability to do the job
(2) ability to work in a spirit of harmony with others.
Step 3 – Determine Your Rewards – Clearly
Determined rewards for participation in your
Mastermind alliance are an important factor
in its harmony. There are 10 basic motives toward
action that can be the basis of these rewards:
Self-preservation, love, fear, sex, desire for life
after death, freedom for mind and body, anger,
hate, desire for recognition and self-expression,
and wealth. Wealth has the greatest appeal for
greatest appeal for members of your enterprise, but
remember that other motives can play an
important role.
Step 4 – Set a Time and Place for Meeting –
Your alliance must be active to do any good.
Establish a definite place and time for regular
meetings to ensure that you are making progress
and dealing with the issues you face.
b. Maintaining Your Alliance –
The harmony of your alliance is built upon
the mutual agreement on your definite purpose.
Your attention should focus on four areas.
(1) Confidence
(2) Understanding
(3) Fairness and Justice
(4) Courage
c. Form a Mastermind Alliance with Yourself –
You will begin to take charge of the efforts of
others only when you take complete charge
of the power of your own mind.
d. Cultivate Mastermind Alliance Wherever You Can-
Once you recognize the benefits of mastermind
alliances you will understand that they can serve
you in many areas. You can – and must – make
progress on many fronts to achieve personal
success.
– In Your Marriage – a mastermind alliance with
the person you love most deeply is of untold
importance.
– In Your Education – No one’s education is
ever complete.
