Napoleon Hill
The seventh factor of the basic ingredients of genius, as determined from an extensive analysis of the lives of outstanding men of this nation, is *the habit of going the extra mile.* You will never be a genius unless you make it a habit to do more and better than you are paid to do, every single day of your life.
Napoleon Hill
Until you have learned to be tolerant with those who do not always agree with you, you will be neither successful nor happy.
Napoleon Hill

Napoleon Hill
No two minds ever come together without thereby creating a third, invisible, intangible force which may be likened to a third mind
Napoleon Hill
Fear is a habit, so is self pity, defeat, anxiety, despair, hopelessness and resignation. You can eliminate all of these negative habits with two simple resolves: I can and I will.
Napoleon Hill
Most great people have attained their greatest success just one step beyond their greatest failure.
Napoleon Hill
Whatever you think today becomes what you are tomorrow.
Napoleon Hill
Whatever the mind of man can conceive and believe, it can achieve. Thoughts are things! And powerful things at that, when mixed with definiteness of purpose, and burning desire, can be translated into riches. Use auto-suggestion, have faith, imagination and overcome fear and time is your opposite player as in checkerboard.
Napoleon Hill
If your environment is not to your liking, change it!
Napoleon Hill
Your world will change whether or not you choose to change, but you have the power to choose it's direction.
Napoleon Hill
Practice being grateful for everything that life has blessed you with.
Napoleon Hill
Understand this law and you will then know, beyond room for the slightest doubt, that you are constantly punishing yourself for every wrong you commit and rewarding yourself for every act of constructive conduct in which you indulge.
Napoleon Hill
A BURNING DESIRE TO BE, AND TO DO is the starting point from which the dreamer must take off. Dreams are not born of indifference, laziness, or lack of ambition.
