Have you heard of Napolean Hill??? If not, google him. He wrote many famous books, one of them being, "Think and Grow Rich." Even though many self help and personal development gurus regard this book as the bible of self help, I learned an interesting thing about Napolean Hill. He died broke! This fact seems to completely contradict the concepts he talked about in his books. Does that mean his concepts weren't as valid as some may believe? Or does it mean that Napolean Hill died broke simply because he didn't apply these concepts?
