The past few days I have been listening to recordings from a Napoleon Hill workshop that I found here: http://archive.org/details/Napoleon_Hill_Rare_Recordings.
What a blast! I love hearing his voice, and those in the audience when they called out the answers. Most importantly, it reaffirmed many beliefs by which I already live my life, formed by personal experience.
In short, that the power of positive belief, a willingness to go above and beyond what is asked of you, and the keeping of a constant, clear image of what you want (and always working toward it) will take you where you want to go.
Many people throughout history have written and spoken of these things, so the message is not new. In short, it boils down to faith backed by action. Imagination, determination, and work. Haven't all things created in this world been brought about by those things?
As I listened to the workshop, I was reminded of so many life experiences that I've had which illustrate the truth of his words, and have been sharing some of those with my daughter to encourage her. And over the next few days and weeks, I want to publicly share some of those experiences in the hope that they will encourage others as well. It has certainly been encouraging to me to reflect on them as I start moving in a new direction with my writing and life.
I'll post the first one on Monday (9/24/12), and hope you'll join in and be encouraged, too. :)
Certainly worth a shot, I should say!
ReplyDeleteI hope you find something helpful in it, Charles!
DeleteAwesome! I'm doing something similar that I've planned for a while. When I start it, I'll email you.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to find out what you're up to, Edie!
