Napoleon Hill
There can never be success without happiness, and no man can be happy without dispensing happiness to others.
Napoleon Hill
There is a difference between WISHING for a thing and being READY to receive it. No one is ready for a thing, until he believes he can acquire it. The state of mind must be BELIEF, not mere hope or wish. Open-mindedness is essential for belief.
Napoleon Hill
A positive mind finds a way it can be done a negative mind looks for all the ways it can't be done.
