Napoleon Hill
About this listen
In 1952, Napoleon Hill spoke at a dental convention. He was introduced by insurance tycoon W. Clement Stone. Stone had been given a copy of Hill's best-selling book, Think and Grow Rich, and was so impressed that he gave away thousands of copies.
Hill and Stone jointly wrote Success Through a Positive Mental Attitude in 1960, and it became an immediate best-seller. Over 50 years later, the book still sells well in the United States and all over the world.
Maker of Miracle Men is the result of Hill's work with Stone. Prefacing the speech is the excellent introduction that Stone gave Hill.

The subconscious mind doesn't know the difference between a penny and a million dollars. It does not know the difference between success and failure, and it'll work just as hard to make a failure out of you as it will to make a success out of you if you don't condition your mind to keep the subconscious mind working with and for the things you want and away from the things you don't want.

Story
His good friend Mark Twain dubbed him "St. Andrew." British Prime Minister William Gladstone called him an "example" for the wealthy. Such terms seldom apply to multimillionaires. But Andrew Carnegie was no run-of-the-mill steel magnate. At age 13 and full of dreams, he sailed from his native Dunfermline, Scotland, to America. Here, in one volume, are two impressive works by Andrew Carnegie himself: his autobiography and The Gospel of Wealth, a groundbreaking manifesto on the duty of the wealthy to give back to society all of their fortunes.

Story
Arthur is a chauffeur who is intellectually gifted. Jonathan is no less bright than Arthur, equally hard-working, yet a billionaire. So why is Jonathan in the back seat of the limousine and Arthur in the front? What explains the difference between success and failure? Joachim de Posada found the answer in a Stanford University study of children who were able to delay gratification by not eating a marshmallow with the promise of receiving another one if they resisted eating the first for 15 minutes.

Story
His father conceived of the Brooklyn Bridge, but after John Roebling's sudden death, Washington Roebling built what has become one of American's most iconic structures - as much a part of New York as the Statue of Liberty or the Empire State Building. Yet, as recognizable as the bridge is, its builder is too often forgotten - and his life is of interest far beyond his chosen field. It is the story of immigrants, of the frontier, of the greatest crisis in American history, and of the making of the modern world.
