What I miss in the ideas of Napoleon Hill and similar principles of success is something like ‘common mindset’ or ‘group mindset’, even though he mentions what Gandhi accomplished.
As of the moment I experience the ‘mood’ or ‘mindset‘ in the world as very negative, which I also believe(?!) as affecting chances to financial success for individuals. I know there are still many, many people doing very well and maybe my own lack in achieving the success I am looking for is part of my thinking, but still, somehow i believe that world economy or world mindset is somehow important and should be influenced in a positive way.
It is still some kind of quest in my mind to do something about the current state of the world economy, the ‘world state of mind’ that I consider quite negative, especially in Europe and i think the Middle East. And somehow I also disagree with Napoleon Hill that somehow people ‘choose’ for poverty. Next that i believe in his ideas, I also believe that more people should benefit from all the riches in the world. That not only the successful should benefit from the achievements of human kind in all kinds of things. Not only material things, but also medical care, having holidays, etc., etc.
And in a way of course everybody does benefit, because as far as i know everyone has access to t.v. and practically everybody has a cellphone. But with current technology and efficiency everybody could have so much more.
If only we could find a better way of distribution, maybe more communist like.
