The Magic Ladder To Success

Napoleon Hill’s Law of Success is a monument of a publication and at the time was expensive (Law of Success was originally published in 1928 as a set of 8 books with two lessons in each book).

With the onset of the Great Depression Napoleon Hill decided on editing down the Law Of Success and making it more accessible to people. This edited and rewritten version was published in 1930 and titled: The Magic Ladder To Success.

The book is hard to track down so I’ve ordered a reprint copy (available from highroads media ).

Interesting though is a quote from the book that states:

“Leaders are not born, they are molded by a remarkably similar, simple, and dynamic set of habits.”

I will let you know what my thoughts are about the book when I read it.
