If you had read Napolean Hill’s Think & Grow Rich, you’ll remember that Hill wrote that most successful people become successful after 40. For those born before 1969: rejoice! I guess there’s some logic to that because at that age, you’ll probably done your 10,000 hours already.
If you haven’t read Think & Grow Rich, then I highly recommend you to do so. It’s basically the original The Secret. I think it’s better than The Secret because it offers some practical exercises to attain wealth—monetary and in other forms (but mainly money wealth).
I think Think & Grow Rich should be mandatory reading for those starting a business or going into sales. In fact, I’d pass it to my kids when they turned 18. It’d be sort of a trust fund release when they become a major.
