3. The Share Guide: Napoleon Hill, the author of Think and Grow Rich, was like a grandfather to the human potential movement. His motto was: “Whatever your mind can conceive and believe you can achieve.” What are your thoughts on that?

Brian: It’s absolutely true, as long as you take the next step. If you look at Napoleon Hill’s teachings, they are very rigorous. It requires that you have organized plans of action, that you have specialized knowledge, that you have a positive personality, that you take an enormous amount of time to get along well with everybody in your world, and that you have a burning desire, definite goals, use your time well, and so forth. Napoleon Hill doesn’t say that it’s quick and easy. You can conceive it and believe it, but he said that’s just a starting point. But here’s an interesting point that holds people back: Most of the things you try won’t work. They turn out to be partial failures or total failures. You’ll embark on something and you’ll visualize it and you’ll write it down, you’ll set it as a goal, you’ll make a plan, and it won’t work. And you’ll end up with nothing. And what people don’t realize is that life is a series of false starts. Nobody just goes onward and upward with no failures. What you’ve got to do is pull yourself back every single time that you miss the target. Ask yourself “What did I learn from that,” and then clearly isolate the lesson and then take the next step.
