Where Did My Journey Into Self Development Begin?
Over twenty years ago I was passed a cassette tape and a book by a colleague of mine in the Life Assurance industry, in which I was working at the time. The cassette tape was of Earl Nightingale's radio broadcast "The Strangest Secret," recorded before I was born and the book was Napoleon Hill's "Think and Grow Rich," also in existence before I was born. Since that time I have listened to that cassette and many others like it many times, the book I now know to be a classic and my copy is beginning to fall apart with fare wear and tear.I consider myself to be well educated in Personal Development now, but often the theory whilst inspirational and exciting, without the subsequent actions that these Self Development teachers encourage us to take, is like having a car but never taking it out for a drive! One man who did take the information "out for a drive" is Bob Proctor., when as a young man back in 1960 both Earl Nightingale and Napoleon Hill's work became known to him.
Bob was a fireman earning what was then a respectable $4,000 a year, but was himself $6,000 in debt and desperate to improve his situation in life. He not only read Napoleon Hill's "Think and Grow Rich" which was based on the research Hill had done interview 504 of the wealthiest people in the United States, but Bob started to implement the strategies that the book taught.
Within a year he had personal income of of $100,000 and within a short period of time, he secured work with Earl Nightingale who became his personal mentor. Bob is now 74 years of age a multi-millionaire who has gone on to mentor and teach many other people who are now millionaires or multi-millionaires themselves. Bob has an amazing way of communicating the information he has personally put into practice for almost fifty years.
When I'm 74, I'd love to have not only the same passion, the same ability to inspire and challenge people to create the life they long for, but also something that mesmerizes me when I see Bob the amazing twinkle in his eye!
Below please find a link to a video that Bob has recently recorded, which I believe could be the inspiration that turns the current economic downturn on it's head. When you've watched it please let me know what you think about it, email me at "andrew@gistli.co.uk" and I'll personally send you a pdf copy of Napoleon Hill's "Think and Grow Rich."
