BOOK SUMMARY


Towards Success Consciousness

You are the master of your fate the captain of your soul."

Think And Grow Rich is a state of mind. It exploits the power of thought to manifest strong desires and a definite purpose into reality. Turning your all-consuming obsession (definite purpose) into a reality is not an easy task. However if the desire is strong and you’re willing to raise the stakes you will win. The author projects the following formula:

Desire + Ideas + Plans + Massive Action = Success

Start with your goal. What do you really want? A better job? To succeed in your current career? To work for a business leader who inspires you?

To achieve that goal shifting your thinking from failure consciousness to success consciousness is the key. For this to happen the question ‘how do I get a job?’ needs to change into ‘what can I give to a job?’ and ‘how do I get more dollars per hour?’ into ‘how do I give more energy desire focus?’

To get from where you are to where you want to be the author highlights:

Never quit. Never give up. Focus. Seek help. Make new connections. Take different approaches. Seek additional resources to help you improve your job search skills. Persist and find people who can help you to achieve your goals.
