Using his legendary ability to get to the root of human potential, Napoleon Hill digs deep to reveal how fear, procrastination, anger, and jealousy prevent us from realizing our personal goals. This long-suppressed parable, once considered too controversial to publish, was written by Hill in 1938 following the publication of his classic bestseller, Think and Grow Rich. Annotated and edited for a contemporary audience by Rich Dad, Poor Dad and Three Feet from Gold coauthor Sharon Lechter, this book is profound, powerful, resonant, and rich with insight.

In Million Dollar Habits, Tracy teaches listeners how to develop the habits of successful men and women so they too can think more effectively, make better decisions, and ultimately double or triple their income. Listeners will learn how to organize their finances, increase health and vitality, sustain loving relationships, build financial independence, and take a leadership role to turn visions into reality.

The original 1937 manuscript was written and edited with the assistance of Napoleon’s wife. In later years, the existing document was again edited by Dr. Hill. For example, the Foundation owns a 1958 edition that Hill edited personally. This did not lessen the book’s value in Hill’s judgment. Hill made the editing remarks in his own handwriting and the resulting 1960 edited edition has sold over 100 million copies making it the most read self-help book of all time.

本書の主旨は、みなさんが正しい目的に向かって力いっぱい努力すること―、苦労や苦しみ、屈辱から逃れることも、他者からの支援や保護に頼りきることもなく、自分自身で活路を切り開けるように導くことだ。自分自身を助けることは、突き詰めて考えれば、周囲の人を助けることにつながる。本書で取り上げたさまざまな実例――文学者や科学者、芸術家、発明家、教育家、慈善家、宣教師、殉教者たちの生き様―を見れば、それが分かるはずである。優れた人物が、自らの理想を追求するなかで失敗することはもちろんある。しかし、失敗しようと思って失敗したわけでもなければ、失敗してよかったと考えているわけでもない。よからぬことを追求して成功するのは恥ずべきことだが、理想を追求して失敗するのは名誉なことである。しかし、理想を追求して成功するほうがそれよりもっといい。どんな場合でも一番大事なのは結果ではなく、その目的であり、価値ある目的の実現に向けて注ぐ努力と忍耐、勇気、不屈の闘志である。(目次)第5章 支援と機会―科学の探究――SCIENTIFIC PURSUITS...
