Subject of the book: Dr. Russell Conwell
Majority of the book told from point of view of Robert Shackelton
Premise of the book is to highlight the speech by Conwell and bring light to the man behind the speech
Travel guide told him the story of a Persian named Ali Hafed. Very wealthy man
“He was contented because he was wealthy, and wealthy because he was contented” (unpack)
Told by Buddhist priest about the existence of diamonds and how much they were worth
He began to strongly desire diamonds, feeling like a poor man even though he hadn’t lost anything
“He was poor because he was discontented, and discontented because he feared he was poor”
Sold everything in search of diamonds, following the description of the priest who told him where they could be found
Searched his whole life and ended up killing himself after he had grown old, sick and had exhausted his riches
The man who bought the land from Ali took a camel out to drink from a stream on the land and found a diamond. Turns out there were diamonds all over the property
Moral, had Ali stayed and began in his own backyard he would have had what he desired.The majority of rich people are not bad
Find out what the people want and supply it
“..the foundation of godliness and the foundation principle of success in business are both the same precisely.” You’re doing people a kindness
You can start without money. Knowing what people want and need is worth more than the capital
“There is a human need; there is a great fortune”
“Let patience have her perfect work”
Abe Lincoln’s principle of greatness: “Whatsoever he had to do at all, he put his whole mind into it and held it all there until that was all done.”
“This one thing I do.”“..Conwell’s way is to dream of future bigness, but be ready to begin at once, no matter how small or insignificant the beginning may appear to others.”
