Napoleon Hill (October 26, 1883–November 8, 1970) was an American author who was one of the earliest producers of the modern genre of personal-success literature. His most famous work, Think and Grow Rich, is one of the best-selling books of all time.

Napoleon Hill has made more millionaires and inspired more successes than any other person in history. Back in the 1960s and 1970s his work was already shaping the minds of modern day business gurus such as Dr. Stephen R. Covey and motivational speakers such as Jim Rohn.

Around 1976, Dr. Stephen R. Covey began an extensive study of the ’success literature’ in America and its evolution. With Mr Napoleon Hill being one of the foremost and first authors of the ‘personal-success’ genre in America, this is when and where Dr. Covey came in contact with his work.

Jim Rohn bought Napoleon Hill’s book, Think and Grow Rich while in his mid-twenties. It along with the Bible and a couple of other key books were major influences in his success.

Not only is Think and Grow Rich my favourite book, but I have set up a discussion group by the same name.
