NAPOLEON HILL'S 17 PRINCIPLES OF SUCCESS
1. DEFINITENESS OF PURPOSE
The starting point of all achievement.
Before you can accomplish anything of significance, you must first adopt a definite major purpose and specific plan to make it happen. Every day, focus on your most important goals to reach them rapidly and confidently.
2. THE MASTERMIND ALLIANCE
Only through the cooperation of others will you find success.
More than a team or partnership, a mastermind alliance is a group of two or more people who combine their experience, specialized knowledge and ideas to reach a shared goal exponentially faster and with greater results than acting alone.
3. APPLIED FAITH
Action is the first requirement of all faith.
Faith is an active state of mind. When a plan comes through to your conscious mind, accept it with appreciation and gratitude and act upon it at once. Don't hesitate, argue, worry or challenge that it is right. Simply act in good faith.
4. GOING THE EXTRA MILE
To expect more, you must first do more.
This dynamic principle is more than a motivational mantra; it's based on the Law of Compensation. The more value you bring to your career and family, the more you are rewarded with pay, appreciation and love.
5. PLEASING PERSONALITY
Your greatest asset or liability.
Your personality is the combination of your mental, spiritual and physical traits and habits that make you unique. With every personal and business engagement, you should display sincerity and courtesy as well as a pleasing tone of voice and a welcoming smile.
6. PERSONAL INITIATIVE
The power that starts all action.
Personal initiative is the underlying foundation of everyone who achieves significance. The minute you have the drive and passion to think and act on your own, there's no limit to what you can accomplish.
7. POSITIVE MENTAL ATTITUDE
Success attracts more success.
Always keep your mind positively focused on what you want most. Think about failure, you attract failure. Think about success, you attract success. Before you can reap the results of the other sixteen principles, you must accurately adopt this one.
8. ENTHUSIASM
Turn thoughts into actions.
Make a daily habit of displaying your burning desires as it radiates outwards and affects everyone around you. Enthusiasm is the instrument by which advertises and temporary defeats are changed into action and accomplishment.
9. SELF-DISCIPLINE
The bottle neck through which your personal power must flow.
Before you can control your needs, you must first control your thoughts. Self-discipline calls for balancing the emotions of your heart with the reasoning of your mind.
10. ACCURATE THINKING
Your most beneficial power available.
You have complete control over your thoughts. The accurate thinker separates facts into two classes; important and unimportant. Spend your time focusing on the most important and reap extraordinary results.
11. CONTROLLED ATTENTION
Great achievements are the results of the focused mind.
Controlled attention leads to mastery in any type of human endeavor. As you concentrate on your major purpose, you project a clear picture of that purpose upon the conscious mind. Next, the subconscious mind takes over until you take action.
12. TEAMWORK
Cooperation always pays high dividends.
Teamwork is harmonious cooperation that is willing, voluntary and free. When teamwork is applied to any problem or opportunity, success is inevitable. Generosity, fair treatment, courtesy and a willingness to serve are qualities of teamwork.
13. LEARNING FROM ADVERSITY AND DEFEAT
Each setback is a seed of opportunity.
Most so-called problems and temporary defeats may prove to be a blessing in disguise. Because what grows from adversity are powerful life lessons that form the steps to success. Defeat is never "failure" until you believe it is so.
14. CREATIVE VISION
Unleash your imagination upon the world.
You are far more creative, imaginative and inventive than you may give yourself credit. Learn how to tap into your most creative abilities. The resulting ideas, solutions and results will literally astound you.
15. MAINTENANCE OF SOUND HEALTH
Your most valuable asset.
You have nothing without your health. Your sound health begins in your mind - your health consciousness. Just as the right foods and exercises can prevent disease and increase your lifespan, so can the right healthy thoughts.
16. BUDGETING TIME AND MONEY
Maximize these valuable, finite resources.
Where will you be in five, ten, twenty years? You already know. Simply consider how you spend your spare time and how you spend your money. If your time and money are spent on your family, on improving yourself and by helping others, you will achieve greatness.
17. COSMIC HABITFORCE
Fulfill your dreams... automatically.
Napoleon Hill's final and perhaps most potent principle. Beyond mere habits, Cosmic Habitforce engages universal laws where you automatically do what's right. Developing positive habits leads to peace of mind, health and financial security.
