I would recommend this book 100%. “One’s dominant desires can be crystallized into their physical equivalents through definiteness of purpose, with the aim of nature of law of hypnotic rhythm and time!” (Hill, 249)

Can I give this book 100 stars??!?!?

We are living in a time where people are more open minded. States are agreeing to legalize marijuana, same sex marriage isn't taboo and we are entering into the zone of transgender relationships. We even have 2 states that may have a transgender legislator.

This book was blacklisted since 1938 until 2011 because during the time the writer initially wanted to release it, the world simply wasn't ready!!

But we are now and it has provided me with so much insight and has made me reevaluate the way I hold myself back. Although The Alchemist unleashed a part of me I never knew, Outwitting the Devil took it a step further and taught me how to FIGHT.

Every human being NEEDS to read this!!

Във всяко временно поражение, всеки временен неуспех или нещастие се съдържа семето на бъдеща компенсация.

Учете децата, че единствените реални ограничения са тези, които те си поставят или които разрешават другите хора да поставят в умовете им.
Кажете им, че човек може да постигне всичко, което мисли, и всичко, в което вярва!


Пробуждаща съзнанието книга! Живейки в една от многото "независими" държави и заобиколени от огромна бройка развлечения, ние, хората, сме просто едно стадо слепи овце и с всеки изминал ден ставаме по-лесни за манипулиране. Растем, научени как трябва да спазваме правила, да следваме пътя на големите и да стоим на сигурно, като всичко това ни реже крилата още от деца.
Трудността да кажем "Не" само защото ни е втълпено като проява на грубост и егоизъм;
Страхът от новото, от това да поемем риск и евентуално да сгрешим. Като често тези грешки не са фатални, а напротив - дори ни учат на ценен житейски урок;

"Дяволът" показва идеално онази част от света, която остава в сянката, поради невнимание или нарочно (все пак глупав народ се управлява по-лесно).

Бих добавил още няколко прекрасни съждения, представени като "думи на Дявола" (нищо по-малко от чистата и груба истина), но ще оставя интереса да събуди любопитството ви и да се доберете до тази книга възможно най-скоро.

I thought it would be a bit "darker", but I'm glad it wasn't :D
Very important messages! It'll definitely help me in my life.

It's so interesting that this was written in 1938, held back all these years and only published in 2011.
It's thought provoking even now. Try to imagine people reading this back then, they probably would have fainted :D
slow-paced

It seems like it’s going to be trite, but actually it’s pretty thoughtful!

This was recommended to me by someone I trust very much. At first, it felt like the usual self-help claptrap… But I gave it a chance and was glad I did. There is excellent and very clear thinking in here, with truly deep insights. I will say that the device of talking to the devil is compelling and at times really made me feel like I was getting information from a different source, outside of humanity, as bizarre as that sounds.

My favorite Napoleon Hill book of all. His work is wonderful and though provoking. I loved the way the book was set up and was filled with so many truths that I knew already existed deep within.
