Napoleon Hill summarized in his book Think and Grow Rich that there are 13 unique characteristics that every wealthy, successful and powerful man and woman has. He called these characteristics the Thirteen Steps to Riches.
Noone was born with any of these characteristics. All were born the same. These characteristics are learned and developed to be the second nature. What are these characteristics, the Thirteen Steps to Riches?

Think and Grow Rich is a textbook on individual achievement of the experiences of hundreds of America’s most successful men. It must be studied, digested, and meditated upon. You must underline the sentences that impress you the most, and later go back to these marked lines and read them again. You will absorb its contents and make them your own.

Our mind is so powerful that whatever we think can happen will surely happen. We should learn to make use of our mind power so we could utilize it best.

Sound advice, thanks for sharing. Not more than one chapter should be read in one night. Most people miss one important factor: They read it alone instead of reading it together with a mastermind group – even though Mr. Hill’s dedicates an entire chapter to the power of the mastermind.
Take care
