    I have read it and keep reading it over and over. I also have it in ebook or Amazon Kindle version, see my signature link below if interested.

    It is an awesome book and everyone should read it, at least once.

    That book and the 7 habits of highly successful people are IMO must read books for marketers

    I've read it before and actually just started rereading it again recently. There is a lot to be learned from this book and like others have said I learn something new every time.

    All of them.

    Or at least, near enough to all of them that it's within epsilon of being true.

    I've read "The Law of Success" by Napoleon Hill, which is pretty good. "Do You! 12 Laws to Access the Powers in You and Achieve Happiness" by Russell Simmons is good too.

    What I find, however, is that a lot of these books reiterate the same information from the perspective of their authors. For example, Napoleon Hill and W. Clement Stone have ideas that are quite similar to those of Charles F. Hannel, who wrote "The Master Key System".

    Anyways to get back on point, anything by Napoleon Hill is good. I have yet to read all of "Think and Grow Rich", but, from what I have read, it pretty good. It doesn't go into as much detail as "The Law of Success", but it does do a good job of explaining Hills ideas.

      I have the 21st edition on audio and love it. A current affirmation that I say aloud daily is as follows:
      I am successful

      Everything I do turns into success.

      I am filled with success.

      Success comes effortlessly to my direction.

      My success is contagious, other people like it, seek it and respect it.

      I attract positive-minded people to me; I draw all things positive to myself.

      I am very fortunate to work at what I love to do.

      I make powerful and enjoyable business relationships and many of my business contacts are now my friends.

      Try it out!

    I have Napoleon Hill's "Think and Grow Rich" on a CD in audiobook format.
    I listen to it every time I'm driving my old 2003 Jeep.

    That may sound silly... -but that old Jeep only has a cassette player.
    I had to buy a cassette to CD converter from Radio Shack in order to listen to it -a huge investment for me at that time.

    I truly believe that CD is the reason I now drive a 2010 Lincoln Navigator...

    I'm not 'Big-Stuff'n' or showing off either.

    I just believed everything that ole' 'Nap' had to say -Implemented it -and it worked.

    'Think and Grow Rich' is timeless if you ask me....
    Well worth the read -or the 'listen'

    I have.

    I think a lot of people in Internet marketing have read that book and similar ones, but the vast majority still aren't rich - or making any money - because they don't really apply the lessons.

    Reading a book is one thing. Learning from it and implementing what it teaches is another thing entirely.

    I remember watching the DVD recordings of a IM seminar not so long ago. One of the speakers asked the audience to raise their hand if they had read that book. Practically the whole audience did.

    Yet, the majority of the audience was still broke as when they were asked who was making any money, most of the hands stayed down.

    Conclusion: actually USE what you learn.

      I think that "learning" is best done in the field of battle so to speak. If one tries to force-feed their thinking (a head-based domain) and forgets their passion (a gut-based domain) their results could be spotty at best.

      I'm not saying that we shouldn't read books - we certainly should - just don't get all motivated by the info in them. That's what causes burnout. Look for connections instead.

      Great replies. Keep 'em coming.

    It's a great book. But if you're too busy taking massive action, then I can some the book up in one word - persistence.

    Looks like a lot of you have read this book more than one time. That represents quite a hefty time investment though. Today, unlike it was back in Dr. Hill's era, we're a lot more time stressed.

    I think I might have a powerful solution to that problem but you gotta wait a little bit longer yet. (Keep an eye on my sig file)

    I've read it and I think it's one of the best inspirational book ever. I even have an audio version ( Think and Grow Rich Audio Version by Napoleon Hill ) because it's so tiring to read the entire book in one sitting.

    I've read it over and over, listened to it on cd... and you can actually see Napolean Hill on youtube...

    Thing is, later in life he was... BROKE! (According to Dan Kennedy) but people gave him speaking engagements and helped him out.

    Such is life.

    Good book. Dan Kennedy says however a lot of people miss the point and read the title to mean "Just Think and Grow Rich" which won't get you anywhere except in a happy state of mind.
