#002 - In this episode, we're reading Chapter 1 of Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill. (This is the 1937 version of the book in the public domain.) These pages focus on success mindset lessons including having desire (knowing what you want) and being persistent enough to reach your goals.

You'll hear the story of Edwin C. Barnes who had the desire and persistence to make his dream of becoming the partner of Thomas A. Edison a reality. You'll also listen to the tale of R.U. Darby and his uncle who stopped just 3 feet from their particular goal. Darby later went on to become a success because of this experience.

By the way, I set up a Think and Grow Rich page where you can find the related episodes and resources in one spot for your convenience:

If you struggle with putting temporary defeat into context and understanding what failure really is, then you'll definitely want to listen to this chapter.  (And, as entrepreneurs, obstacles are commonplace so this essential information will help keep you in the right headspace.)

Napoleon Hill writes:
"We foolishly believe that our own limitations are the proper measure of limitations."

Whether this is your first introduction to the book or you're listening to it again, you're sure to pick up many valuable gems. Enjoy!
