Think and Grow Rich

I am reading a revised, updated version of the Napoleon Hill classic “Think and grow rich”, which by the time of Napoleon Hill's death in 1970 had sold over 70 million copies worldwide. It was first published in 1937. The first Chapter is about “Desire” and for those who haven’t read the book I will quote (abridged) a short section that has worked for Beautiful Bracelets, even within the Money Show Challenge.

The method by which desire for riches can be transmuted into its financial equivalent consists of six definite, practical steps:
1.Fix in your mind the exact amount of money you desire
2.Determine exactly what you intend to give in return for the money you desire
3.Establish a definite date when you intend to possess the money you desire
4.Create a definite plan for carrying out your desire, and begin at once whether you are ready or not, to put the plan into action.
5.Write out a clear, concise statement of the money you intend to acquire. Name the time limit for its acquisition. State what you intend to give in return for the money, and clearly describe the plan through which you intend to accumulate it.
6.Read your written statement out loud, twice daily, once just before retiring at night, and once after rising in the morning. AS YOU READ, SEE, FEEL AND BELIEVE YOURSELF ALREADY IN POSSESSION OF THE MONEY.

It works. If you follow the 6 steps exactly. I believe this book should be standard reading for any aspiring entrepreneur.
