A lot of people have heard of the book Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill, but very few actually know how to apply it in real life, right now, in the 21st century.

In this episode, I sit down with David Meltzer, the chairman of the Napoleon Hill Institute, to break down how to truly live these principles so you can create real wealth, real impact, and real happiness.

If you don't know David's story, it's powerful. He made over $100 million, ran the iconic sports agency that inspired the movie Jerry Maguire, and then lost it all. Bankruptcy. Starting over from below zero. What changed everything for him was coming back to the timeless philosophies of Napoleon Hill and learning how to engineer wealth instead of just chasing money.

In our conversation, David and I dive into how to move from "I'll be happy when…" to living "for the sake of what." We talk about what it really means to define a definiteness of purpose, why so many people drift without clarity, and how your behaviors what you consistently think, say, do, believe, and feel either move you toward your potential or away from it.

David shares how mentors like Bob Proctor, Sharon Lecter, Greg Reid, Jack Canfield, and even the work of Wayne Dyer helped him reframe his failures, rebuild his life, and apply Hill's principles from books like Think and Grow Rich, Three Feet from Gold, and Outwitting the Devil. We dig into his concept of "a thousand steps" and why 90% of the time it takes to achieve anything meaningful is spent on the first 250 steps right where most people quit.

We also tackle why people struggle to ask for help, and how the fastest way to get where you want to go is to help someone else get where they want to go. David explains why comparison is the thief of joy, how social media has created a generation of "virtual Great Gatsbys," and why chasing an image of success keeps you broke, frustrated, and exhausted.

If you've ever felt like you're three feet from gold, this episode will give you a new way to interpret pain, setbacks, and "failures." David explains how to see them as promotion, protection, love, and perfection, not punishment. That shift alone can completely change the trajectory of your financial life.

We wrap up by talking about David's mission to empower over a billion people to be happy by teaching them to make a lot of money, help a lot of people, and have a lot of fun. He even shares how you can get a free signed copy of his book, straight from him.

If you're serious about passive income, financial freedom, and building a rich life with purpose, this conversation will help you connect the dots between timeless wisdom and modern application. You'll walk away with practical ways to align your mindset, your habits, and your money with the person you're truly meant to become.
