Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill has become the most read how-to book on accumulating money. And that's because it works. If it is riches you seek, you've found the blueprint for its achievement. The only issue with the book is that is fairly long. And because each chapter is in itself a crucial step in the art of amassing wealth and abundance, one cannot afford to overlook any practical detail. That's where this book comes in.

Publisher's Summary
It takes the average person 49.5 minutes to read 7,000 words. For the price of a coffee and a time investment of roughly three-and-a-half percent of your day, I believe the wisdom in this book to be well worth it's value.
Here's my sales pitch: The writing will not be quite up to the same standard, and the formatting is also not done by a professional. If you need a story behind each point to reinforce it, then please, go and buy the original. However, if, like me, you aren't a fan of the "fluff" that comes along with most books and would much rather skip to the nuggets of wisdom and actionable content in a very easily absorbed, enjoyable way including key takeaways - then I believe this is the book for you.
Save yourself time and money. I am only releasing summaries of the books that have made a true positive impact in my life. If you decide to purchase, I truly hope you enjoy and benefit from it. Amplify your knowledge in a simple, efficient manner. Take action, get your copy today!

Chapter summaries
I really like the end of chapter summaries for a quick refresher. I was hoping for a summary of all the summaries at the end. I gave this summary of Grit to my grandson in his now third year of college majoring in Sports Psychology & an aspiring baseball pitcher who pitched in college nationals last year as a 17 year old. Now because of COVID, baseball was canceled & we will see whether he perservers with grit & passion or changes course. I will also give this to a son who is a parent to one gritty successful child & another child who is unmotivated & gives up easily when faced with needed practice. This parent was a psych major so should find it interesting. Your audio summary is helpful for busy people & a good summary of what I read in Duckworth’s book. Thank you.
