Think and Grow Rich vs. Unstoppable, Book Review

In 1937, Napoleon Hill published his landmark book, Think and Grow Rich, based on interviews of over 500 of the most successful people of the early 20 century.  In it he listed thirteen steps to achieve riches or whatever you saw as success.

1n 1998, Cynthia Kersey published her book, Unstoppable, based on her research about people who overcame “impossible odds” and went on to achieve greatness.  In it she listed seven characteristics to achieve your goal.

Both books are full of stories of successful people organized in a manner to support the thirteen or seven points.  This writer found Think and Grow Rich to be a deep book to be studied and read many times, while Unstoppable is very emotional.

But what struck this writer was the similarity of the points.

	Think and Grow Rich	Unstoppable
1	Desire	Devote themselves to their true purpose; Follow their heart’s passion
2	Faith	Believe in themselves and their desire
3	Autosuggestion
4	Specialized Knowledge	Prepare for the Challenges
5	Imagination
6	Organized Planning/Leadership
7	Decision
8	Persistence	Persevere, no matter what the challenges
9	Power of the Master Mind	Ask for help and build a support team
10	The Mystery of Sex Transmutation
11	The Subconscious Mind
12	The Brain
13	The Sixth Sense

These two books, taken together give you a depth of understanding and the power of emotion to achieve whatever you dream.  Where the one does not move you the other will.  Get the pair and study them together.
