Dear subscriber,
Fun fact:
The popular self-development book Think And Grow Rich was nearly called this:
Use Your Noodle And Get The Boodle
Here’s the story:
Napoleon Hill was taking his sweet time coming up with a title for his book.
This greatly displeased Hill’s zealous publisher who was focused on the book’s publishing deadline.
Well, days turned into weeks and Hill still didn’t have a book title he liked.
His publisher – who was now about as impatient as Judge Judy listening to a knuckleheaded litigant – marches up to Napolean Hill and says, “Hill, this is dragging like a seal’s arse! If you don’t settle on a book title by this time tomorrow, we are publishing the book as ‘Use Your Noodle to Get The Boodle’, okay?
That book title really stuck in Hill’s craw because he thought it was embarrassing and would bring him ridicule.
Determined not to have that as his book title, legend has it that Hill went home that night and put his teachings to work. Right before beddy-byes, Hill sat on the end of his bed and said, “Subconscious mind, I command you to come up with a book title while I sleep tonight.”
At around 3 AM, Hill leaps out of bed with Think And Grow Rich vividly emblazoned on his mind.
And the rest is known history.
Now, like anything that becomes hugely successful, Think And Grow Rich has critics aplenty. The most common criticism is this:
“Oh, that book’s misleading – you can’t just ‘think’ and expect money to fall out of the sky!”
That knee-jerk criticism is mostly from nitwits who have never read the book.
Of course the book title’s misleading – it’s a book title! They are supposed to be misleading. A book title has one job, and one job only: to get people to buy the book!
Now, if the contents of the book only taught that thinking would get you rich, then yes, the book is misleading and all copies should be tossed. But the book doesn’t teach that. The book talks about taking action and being persistent.
However… the brilliant book does overlook, I believe, a crucial element to the success equation.
What is this missing ingredient to the success formula?
It’s something that Einstein did regularly, it’s something the ancient Jews practiced, it’s something one of history’s most astute finance and business strategist perfected, and… I reveal this powerful success secret (in great depth) in the August issue.
Once you add this missing ingredient to the success formula (assuming you’re doing everything else Napoleon Hill teaches), you’ll wonder why you never thought to do it before.
Yup, it’ll give you one helluva advantage in business and in life.
Operating with this success secret and without it is the difference between a flamethrower and a matchstick.
Actually, it’s more akin to playing the game of life with a cheat code.
Yeah, it’s more like that.
