Napoleon Hill, the author of Think and Grow Rich, believes that a person does not have to be a genius to become rich. Any person can become wealthy if they think positively and have a deep desire to achieve their goals.
You must see your financial dreams and know that you will be able to attain them.
Don’t forget, to successful people, there is no such thing as “defeat.”
What looks like defeat is no more than a great opportunity. Start creating opportunities out of failures and be successful today!
Positive Thinking
- Don’t rationalize to yourself why you can’t succeed.
- Discipline your body and mind to think positive thoughts.
- Teach yourself that negative thought patterns are unacceptable.
- You can obtain greatness, even if you are not the smartest, most talented, or best looking person in the world.
- Success is yours if you will just allow it to come into your life.
- Don’t underestimate the power of your thoughts.
