Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill is considered by many to be one of the most influential business and personal development books ever written. Being the self-development junkie I am, I of course got myself a copy!

The first time I read it, however, I didn’t really get much from it. It was a few years ago and while I made my way through the book I did so without really engaging with it. While I felt inspired at some level, I didn’t put any of Napoleon Hill’s advice into practice, I quickly forgot everything I’d learned and was left believing that perhaps this book had been overhyped.

But a couple of months ago, I saw this book on my shelf when I was packing for a holiday and decided to take it with me. Mainly because I’d been learning a lot about the law of attraction and this book comes up a lot in that context too.

Long story short, it felt like I was reading a completely different book to the one I was the first time (even though it was the exact same copy) and took so many lessons away from it - many of which I’ve put into practice.

This book is challenging to summarise, as the magic of this book can really only by discovered by reading it cover-to-cover. So instead, I’m sharing the biggest lessons I learned from this book and how I’ve been applying them to my life. I hope you enjoy it!
