¡Napoleon Hill en las noticias! Es una publicación de trabajos no recopilados previamente, que fueron publicados a lo largo de la vida del Dr. Hill en periódicos y revistas de números especiales. Estos artículos publicados por reporteros y el Dr. Hill nos dan una idea de la popularidad del autor y su atractivo estilo como escritor y orador motivacional. Me parece que se puede encontrar un verdadero tesoro en la serie Science of Success, que incluye 35 artículos del Miami Herald y 18 ensayos adicionales en profundidad que detallan los principios del éxito, un concepto a la vez. Como estudiante, instructor y director del Centro Mundial de Enseñanza de Napoleon Hill, que difunde la filosofía del éxito del Dr. Hill, siempre tengo el deseo de encontrar escritos adicionales que el Doctor haya escrito. Al leer estas columnas de periódicos, el Dr. Hill usa los mismos conceptos pero con diferentes ilustraciones para transmitir sus conceptos al lector y hacerlos comprensibles para cualquiera. > Judith Williamson Director, Centro de Educación Mundial de Napleon Hill

With his signature wit and wisdom, Nightingale shares enduring principles that are the bedrock of success in a world that is continuously in flux.

Reading these messages takes us on what Nightingale calls the most profound and interesting journey of our lives--that of self-discovery. As you encounter their truths, you can access untapped reservoirs of power deep within yourself and cultivate resilience and lasting fulfillment in your changing world. Known as the "Dean of Personal Development," Earl Nightingale broadcast his radio programs for more than three decades on over 1,000 radio stations in twelve countries around the world, making him one of the most listened-to broadcasters in history. An inductee into both the Radio Hall of Fame and the International Speakers Hall of Fame and a winner of the prestigious Golden Gavel Award, he dedicated his life to helping others achieve personal success, co-founding Nightingale-Conant, a world leader in personal development. Combining his personal insight with wisdom from the greatest minds in history--from the ancient Greek philosophers to contemporary thought leaders--he provides original and creative commentaries on life and the ways of successful living.

Habiendo crecido durante la Gran Depresión, a Earl Nightingale le fascinaba la diferencia entre aquellos que alcanzan altos niveles de éxito personal, profesional y financiero y los que no. Dedicó su vida a buscar una receta para el éxito, un medio para predecir el éxito en cualquier área de la vida. Mientras leía la línea en Piense y Hágase Rico de Napoleon Hill que "nos convertimos en lo que pensamos", Nightingale experimentó un momento decisivo de auto-descubrimiento, y como resultado, llegó a experimentar la independencia financiera a la joven edad de treinta cinco años. Permite que este libro sea el catalizador de la transformación que buscas.

"Through this book, we at Nightingale-Conant invite you to join Zig to learn, from the master himself, the secrets of cultivating a successful self-image. As he puts it, "The elements usually conducive to high self-esteem are good family relationships, good moral standards, religion, close friends, financial well-being, hobbies, and status. "It all begins when you start believing in you and having faith in your abilities. It culminates when you realize that you can have anything you want if you help enough people get what they want. Motivation and positive thinking won't work for the individual who does not believe that they themselves are capable of doing anything"--

We struggle making decisions and most times we just wish someone would make them for us. What if that could all change and you could master the decisions you face in your life? The average person makes hundreds of decisions each day. They range from the ordinary and mundane to life-altering events. Many decisions we are faced with have little effect on our lives. They deal with the simple problems and require simple choices. However, there are those decisions which impact our lives and the lives of those around us in very significant and consequential ways. In Making Accountable Decisions, Sam Silverstein presents ways to approach our life's decisions and how we interact with and affect others. He does this by focusing on the most substantial decisions in our lives, considering how they impact us and what decisions we can make to add value and meaning. Sam is the founder of The Accountability Movement(TM) and works with companies, government agencies and people around the world helping them build accountable cultures and live accountable lives. Building an accountable world is his life's mission. Some people choose to let life happen. Some people make it happen. What's your decision?
