<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>When Andrew Carnegie laid out his principles of success to young Napoleon Hill, he inspired Hill to expand on that philosophy, leading to the bestselling <i>Think and Grow Rich</i> and a series of motivational pamphlets. Now, the Napoleon Hill Foundation has selected three principles from those booklets for elaboration: Self-Discipline, Learning from Defeat, and the Golden Rule. Each chapter draws upon Carnegie's advice as inspiration, explaining why they are <i>essential</i> for prospering.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Based on a series of booklets written by bestselling motivational writer Napoleon Hill, </b><i><b>Andrew Carnegie's Mental Dynamite</b></i><b> outlines the importance of three essential principles of success: self-discipline, learning from defeat, and the Golden Rule applied. </b> <p/> In 1908, Napoleon Hill met industrialist Andrew Carnegie for what he believed would be a short interview for an article. Instead, Carnegie spent hours detailing his principles of success to the young magazine reporter. He then challenged Hill to devote 20 years to collating a proven formula that would propel people of all backgrounds to happiness, harmony, and prosperity. Hill accepted the challenge, which he distilled in the perennial bestseller <i>Think and Grow Rich</i>. <p/> Now, more than a century later, the Napoleon Hill Foundation is releasing this epic conversation to remind people that there are simple solutions to the problems troubling us most, everything from relationships and education to homelessness and even democracy. This is revealed in three major principles: <i>self-discipline</i>, which shows how the six departments of the mind may be organized and directed to any end; <i>learning from defea</i>t, which describes how defeat can be made to yield "the seed of an equivalent benefit" and how to turn it into a stepping-stone to greater achievement; and <i>the </i><i>Golden Rule applied</i> for developing rewarding relationships, peace of mind, and a strengthened consciousness. <p/> Each chapter draws on Carnegie's words and advice as inspiration, with annotations by Napoleon Hill scholar James Whittaker explaining why they are <i>essential</i> for reaching your goals and prospering--for you, your family, and your community.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"<i>Mental Dynamite</i> takes us straight to the source in one of the most fascinating conversations ever.

This book is for anyone who is looking for the next level in any area of their life." <br> - Kerwin Rae (business strategist and high-performance expert) <p/> "<i>Mental Dynamite</i> arrives at the perfect time, because it explodes with the lesson that our finest teachers are the failures that defy us to dig deeper than we ever have, to uncover treasures inside us we never knew we had. The best thing that ever happened to me was being rejected 11 times by eight NFL teams before making it with the Kansas City Chiefs, and going on to be the most accurate and prolific kicker in NFL History when I retired. <i>Mental Dynamite</i> helps us to NEVER GIVE UP (how I sign every autograph!) because Failure and Defeat are our finest mentors." <br> - Nick Lowery, Kansas City Chiefs All-Time Leading Scorer and Hall of Fame. <br><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Napoleon Hill was an American author and entrepreneur best known for <i>Think and Grow Rich</i>, published in 1937, which has become one of the bestselling books of all time.
