Around 1976, Dr. Stephen R. Covey began an extensive study of the ’success literature’ in America and its evolution. With Mr Napoleon Hill being one of the foremost and first authors of the ‘personal-success’ genre in America, this is when and where Dr. Covey came in contact with his work.
Jim Rohn bought Napoleon Hill’s book, Think and Grow Rich while in his mid-twenties. It along with the Bible and a couple of other key books were major influences in his success.
Not only is Think and Grow Rich my favourite book, but I have set up a discussion group by the same name.
