Based on a series of booklets written by bestselling motivational writer Napoleon Hill, Andrew Carnegie's Gift outlines the importance of three essential principles of success: self-discipline, learning from defeat, and the Golden Rule. In 1908, Napoleon Hill met industrialist Andrew Carnegie for what he believed would be a short interview for an article. Instead, Carnegie spent hours detailing his principles of success to the young magazine reporter--and challenged Hill to devote 20 years to expanding that philosophy. Hill accepted the challenge, which resulted in his bestselling book, Think and Grow Rich, as well as a series of pamphlets he called Mental Dynamite. Now, the Napoleon Hill Foundation has retrieved those long-forgotten booklets and selected three major principles for elaboration: Self-Discipline, which includes a 13-point psychological formula to use as a daily mantra and to overcome past difficulties, both personal and professional; Learning from Defeat, which helps you find happiness with others, become self-determining, and turn stumbling blocks into stepping stones; and the Golden Rule, for developing a strong character and leading a selfless life. Each chapter draws upon Carnegie's words and advice as inspiration, with annotations by author James Whittaker explaining why they are essential--not just helpful--for reaching your goals and prospering.

Napoleon Hill gilt als der Vater der persönlichen Erfolgsliteratur. Zum ersten Mal in Buchform findet sich hier eine Serie von Artikeln, die Hill zwischen 1919 und 1923 veröffentlicht hat. Napoleon Hill, der selbst in sehr ärmlichen Verhältnissen aufwuchs, beschäftigte sich zeitlebens leidenschaftlich mit dem Rezept für bzw. der Erreichung von persönlichem und finanziellem Erfolg. Dafür studierte und interviewte er im Auftrag des Stahl-Tycoons Andrew Carnegie über 500 der berühmtesten und reichsten Personen seiner Zeit, u. a. Henry Ford, Thomas Edison, Alexander Graham Bell und John D. Rockefeller. Basierend auf diesen Interviews entwickelte Hill seine Erfolgsphilosophie - eine Philosophie, die von ihrer Aktualität und Anwendbarkeit seitdem nichts eingebüßt hat. Sie fand Eingang in seine in diesem Buch veröffentlichten Artikel - kleine aber feine Goldstücke unschlagbarer Weisheit: inspirierend, motivierend und zeitlos. Die goldenen Regeln beschäftigen sich mit Themen wie: Suggestion, Selbstvertrauen und der Kraft des Geistes. Viele seiner Gedanken wurden in den folgenden Jahrzehnten immer wieder von späteren Autoren aufgegriffen und neu verpackt. Das Original ist und bleibt aber das Beste.
