Napoleon Hill (1883–1970) was an influential American self-help author. His most famous work, “Think and Grow Rich” (1937), distilled principles of success and wealth accumulation. Born in poverty, Hill studied successful individuals, including Andrew Carnegie, and developed the concept of “mastermind” groups. His philosophy emphasized the power of positive thinking, goal setting, and perseverance. Hill’s writings have inspired generations to overcome challenges and cultivate a success-oriented mindset. Despite some controversy surrounding his research methods, his ideas remain influential in personal development, motivating millions to pursue their ambitions and achieve their goals.
