It’s a little known fact that Napoleon Hill, the author of “Think and Grow Rich”, a person who’s considered the father of the self-improvement industry, ended up broke and was supported financially by W. Clement Stone throughout the last years of his life.
But let me assure you that it doesn’t mean that Hill lied when he wrote “Think and Grow Rich” as well as other bestselling self-help success and achievement oriented best sellers.
The reason why Hill ended up “on welfare” is because he either never practiced what he preached, was too busy researching success principles to find time to actually apply them or because he didn’t entirely understand abundance.
Abundance
Abundance is the opposite of scarcity. Abundance is when you have no such feeling as guilt or sense of insecurity regarding money and finance. But to better understand abundance we first need to learn to “ask for the doe” for our services.
Feeling guilty about charging money the less fortunate then ourselves for what we do is the number one reason why 90% of those who preach prosperity aren’t prosperous.
