Napoleon Hill, the author of the world-famous “Think & Grow Rich”.
I literally stumbled upon it by accident…and boy, am I certainly glad that I
did!
If you have never read “Think & Grow Rich”…then you will be amazed at
how Napoleon Hill manages to write so clearly, and with such obvious
enthusiasm, that you cannot help yourself from getting caught up in how you
CAN make more of your life.
If you have already read “Think & Grow Rich”…then you will understand
what makes Napoleon Hill’s writing so special. “The Law of Success” has
for many years been hidden behind “Think & Grow Rich”, yet almost every
successful person I have ever spoken to has a copy of it somewhere on their
bookshelf.
Because I had to go through the entire 1,170 page book at least ten times…I
can honestly say that “The Law of Success” is THE most important book
that you have probably never read!

Excerpts from the first
Four Lessons of the
LAW OF SUCCESS
COURSE
By Napoleon Hill

A PERSONAL STATEMENT BY THE
AUTHOR
Some thirty years ago a young clergyman by the
name of Gunsaulus announced in the newspapers of
Chicago that he would preach a sermon the
following Sunday morning entitled:
"WHAT I WOULD DO IF I HAD A MILLION
DOLLARS!"
The announcement caught the eye of Philip D.
Armour, the wealthy packing-house king, who
decided to hear the sermon.
In his sermon Dr. Gunsaulus pictured a great
school of technology where young men and young
women could be taught how to succeed in life by
developing the ability to THINK in practical rather
than in theoretical terms; where they would be
taught to "learn by doing." "If I had a million
dollars," said the young preacher, "I would start
such a school."
After the sermon was over Mr. Armour walked
down the aisle to the pulpit, introduced himself, and
said, "Young man, I believe you could do all you
said you could, and if you will come down to my
office tomorrow morning I will give you the million
dollars you need."
There is always plenty of capital for those who
can create practical plans for using it.
That was the beginning of the Armour Institute of
Technology, one of the very practical schools of the
country. The school was born in the "imagination"
of a young man who never would have been heard of
outside of the community in which he preached had
it not been for the "imagination," plus the capital, of
Philip D. Armour.
Every great railroad, and every outstanding
financial institution and every mammoth business

enterprise, and every great invention, began in the
imagination of some one person.
F. W. Woolworth created the Five and Ten Cent
Store Plan in his "imagination" before it became a
reality and made him a multimillionaire.
Thomas A. Edison created the talking machine
and the moving picture machine and the
incandescent electric light bulb and scores of other
useful inventions, in his own "imagination," before
they became a reality.
During the Chicago fire scores of merchants
whose stores went up in smoke stood near the
smoldering embers of their former places of
business, grieving over their loss. Many of them
decided to go away into other cities and start over
again. In the group was Marshall Field, who saw, in
his own "imagination," the world's greatest retail
store, standing on the selfsame spot where his
former store had stood, which was then but a ruined
mass of smoking timbers. That store became a
reality.
Fortunate is the young man or young woman who
learns, early in life, to use imagination, and doubly
so in this age of greater opportunity.
Imagination is a faculty of the mind which can be
cultivated, developed, extended and broadened by
use. If this were not true, this course on the Fifteen
Laws of Success never would have been created,
because it was first conceived in the author's
"imagination," from the mere seed of an idea which
was sown by a chance remark of the late Andrew
Carnegie.
Wherever you are, whoever you are, whatever you
may be following as an occupation, there is room
for you to make yourself more useful, and in that
manner more productive, by developing and using
your "imagination."
Success in this world is always a matter of
individual effort, yet you will only be deceiving
yourself if you believe that you can succeed without
