Five principles on Think and Grow Rich.

Hey in this article we're going to talk about a few principles in the book Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill. Now this book is very old-fashioned a lot of the principles in it and a lot of the words just a vocabulary that Napoleon uses are very old-fashioned.
 

If you want to success or make something better in your life than you must read this book. After reading this book you will find a good purpose in life.

Let’s start with the top five principles one by one:

Desire

If you want to get rich you have to have a burning desire in you and it will lead up into the second principle we'll make it very effective and that is you have to use Auto suggestions. Now this is basically whatever environment you place yourself in you're going to be. Your subconscious mind is going to start taking in stuff you need to put yourself in environments that will produce profit now this doesn't necessarily just profit as in money, I mean profit as in profit to your well-being will make you a better person.

I heard once that you are an average of the five people that you spend most of your time around. So you can use this to your advantage take right now and write down a list of the top five people that you spend most of your time around and see are they making you a better person and also Napoleon suggests that you should come up with a written statement usually five or six sentences. That basically sum up your purpose in life and every day you need to read them out loud because they will be driven into your subconscious mind and every day.

It will get stronger and stronger and your subconscious mind will start picking up on things that will lead you to your goals so principle

Autosuggestion

Put yourself in places that you will become profitable and feed your mind with books and knowledge and reading and videos and people that are going to make you stronger and work harder and they're going to push you to Grow Rich .

You should start writing all the things you desire on small placards or any sticky note and read them several times a day in order to remember what you want and place them into your subconscious mind.

Mastermind

This is basically you need to be around people who are going to help you. Basically let's say that there's one human and they meet another human who is the opposite sex they get together and they mate and they have a baby so what What kind of math is this ? Generally this is one human plus one human equals three humans and Napoleon Hill says that the same thing works with ideas if you get one idea and you are around a person who has another idea you're going to produce a third idea and he says that it's actually exponential if you get three ideas three people together you're going to end up with maybe 20 new ideas.

Imagine if you get five or six people together you can end up with hundreds of new ideas and you have to use these ideas to become profitable

Specialized knowledge

There’s a great example on this principle that Henry Ford was in this line of questioning, he was brought in for questioning about the profitability of his company because he was making so much money they thought he was doing dirty stuff so they bring him in for questioning and they started asking him a whole bunch of questions and he starts to get really upset. He said if I should really want to answer the foolish questions you have just asked or any of the other questions you have been asking me let me remind you that I have a row of electric push buttons on my desk and by pushing the right button I can summon to my aid any man who can answer any question I desire to ask concerning the business to which I am devoting most of my efforts and this is a part I really stood at me now will you kindly tell me why I should clutter my mind with general knowledge for the purpose of being able to answer questions and this is the basic fourth principle that I got from this book which is specialized knowledge. Napoleon says in the book knowledge has no value except that which can be gained from its application so just knowing something doesn't make it profitable you have to be able to apply it and he basically goes into saying that this is why college degrees are going down in value because anyone can get a college degree but you have to be able to learn how to apply it correctly and this goes with the statement that the more you learn the more you earn it's okay to have a lot of general knowledge but if you're going to be an entrepreneur or if you are wanting to Grow Rich you need to have little field of specialized knowledge that you know a lot in or be in the position to get the general knowledge from someone else like Google or a friend

Persistence

I have found this one to become extremely helpful in my situation. For example, this Blog channel has been up for about one months and I'm sticking with it I'm trying to write at least six articles per week with good quality adding value to other people's lives and I have to stick with it I know right now I'm only getting a couple hundred views per week but I know in a couple months I'm going to be dominating if I keep up with this persistence.

Many people fail in their first attempt. But that’s not end of the world. Nowadays, fear of failure has become the most scariest than someone from dying. They might fail even on their 100^th attempt. But this proves their dedication and there strength of desire. This will ensure their success at some point in the future. We should never forget that Thomas Edison had failed 999 times before inventing the first bulb. Many people give up at their first attempt, claiming that the challenge is too tough for them and as a result, these people barely ever succeed.

There are actually 13 principles in this book and these are the top five principles.
