I'm a big fan of Napoleon Hill's book ... awesome collection of anecdotes (even if you ignore some of his techniques).

Hi artistinhk and knowitAll,

What a nice threat !! And what a pity that it seems not so many ppl replied.

KnowItAll, I also like Nopolleon Hill's book. I keep several books fm his collection. And I tried to practise some of his rules. May I asked did you try to practise his rules ?

I'm not much of a rules person. Gets too complicated as situations change, people change and in many situations all you can do is fall back on your core philosophies.

I like to learn from anecdotes .. and what could be more powerful than reading about folks like Edison, Carnegie etc....

"Think and grow rich" is one of my all time favorite.

I have the book somewhere I am just not sure where.

Napoleon Hill is a legend!

But then how about - Chasing Cool -by Noah Kerner or "Its not how good you are, its how good you want to be" by Paul Arden... or dare I say it... not specifically business however it is based on ideas taken from Napoleon Hill..."The Secret"

Whats the verdict - it seems as though Asia is just catching up to this wave of "The Secret" followers DVD/book/website, has anyone else read it?
