THINK and GROW RICH _NAPOLEON HILL

생각하라 그리고 부자가 되어라. 한국어로 번역하면 이렇다. 이미 너무 유명한 나폴레온 힐의 저서로 꼭 부를 이루고 싶은 사람뿐 아니라 평범하면서도 다사다난한 삶을 조금은 덜 고되게 헤쳐 나가고 싶은 사람에게도 많은 도움이 될 책이다.  두고두고 여러 번 볼 책이 될 것 같다. 

 특히 마지막 장에서 언급한 이 책의 철학으로는 용납할 수 없는 55가지 변명에 대해서는 너무나도 공감이 된다.

 ✿ 기억에 남는 문장들  

➽ One of the most common causes of failure is the habit of quitting when one is overtaken by temporary defeat.
➽ When faced with defeat, the easiest and most logical thing to do is to quit. That is exactly what the majority of people do.
➽ There is a difference between wishing for a thing and being ready to receive it. 
➽ The person who stops studying merely because they have finished school is forever hopelessly doomed to mediocrity, no matter what their calling.
➽ All the world loves a winner and has no time for a loser.
➽ Those who reach decisions promptly and definitely know what they want, and generally get it.
➽ Poverty is attracted to the one whose mind is favorable to it, as money is attracted to one whose mind has been deliberately prepared to attract it, and through the same laws. 
이 말은 한국어로 하면 더 와닿는 것 같다. '돈은 그것을 얻기위해 준비된 사람에게 이끌리듯, 가난은 이를 생각하는 사람에게 들러붙는다.'
➽ The few who take the punishment of defeat as an urge to greater effort. These, fortunately, never learn to accept life's reverse gear.
➽ Merely reading and passing judgment on it, either one way or another, will in no way benefit you.
➽ Anybody can wish for riches, and most people do, but only a few know that a definite plan plus a burning desire for wealth are the only dependable means of accumulating it.
