This is a great book! It's insane how many of the things Hill talked to the Devil about are incredibly resonating today because they're all true.

I recommend reading this one at least once, if not just for a reminder of good moral principles.

An interesting book that certainly has lots of good information and advice. It was difficult for me to get over the author having a conversation with the devil for most of the book and I didn't enjoy that he insists on calling him Your Majesty. The advice also gets repetitive throughout and the book probably could have been shortened.

This was a GREAT book! Real page-turner! Everyone should read this book because it talks about the things holding you back from success and your goals. I'm a slow reader but was able to complete this entire book in a week haha. Gems upon gems in this book! And it STILL is relevant today - decades ahead of its time! The beginning is cool too because it's like an action movie from the author's point of view. One of the best books I've ever read.

It’s the second time I “read” (listen) to this book. First time on YouTube and now I discovered it on Spotify. Napoleon Hill is the father of all motivational writers, there’s no doubt for that, but this book of him is just something else! Leave everything you’re doing and just dedicate three hours and forty minutes to it. It’s a game changer! It will make you run to the sink and actually enjoy doing the dishes and all the house chores after that! In general you will have a new positive attitude for life and it will last for a long time, because you will not be able to forget all the key ideas of this book!

This book completely changes your perspective on life and on the human world we created.
A book 83 years old and it is completely timeless, maybe some of the problems written are even worse nowadays.

I get it that it is a thought-provoking book in general, but if you are not 100% a "drifter" as stated by the author, you should get valuable information to meditate and take action upon while reading this book.

It is certainly a book I will come back to from time to time.
