Summary

In today’s episode, I break down how the timeless principles of Napoleon Hill’s Think and Grow Rich translate into a modern playbook for building real wealth. I share why wealth is created twice, first in your mind and then in the marketplace, and how definiteness of purpose, faith, and specialized knowledge shape that journey. I walk through my ten lessons of wealth, from imagination and organized planning to masterminds, decisive action, and persistent behavior that carries you through resistance and fear. Finally, I explain why money without meaning is malnutrition and how true wealth is the freedom to do what you want, when you want, with who you want.
