Earl Nightingale Reads Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill (Excerpt)

By: Napoleon Hill

Narrated by: Earl Nightingale

Earl Nightingale said that he came to his “aha” moment at the age of 29 while reading Napoleon Hill’s Think and Grow Rich - specifically the words “we become what we think about”. Shortly thereafter he recorded The Strangest Secret which went on to earn a gold record and became the largest selling non-entertainment recording in record industry history.

Think and Grow Rich is the standard against which all motivational books are measured. The book (and audiobook) has helped millions of people create their own success and realize their dreams. This audio condensation brings those two worlds together again - an audio lecture by famed broadcaster Earl Nightingale that clearly and quickly reviews Napoleon Hill’s classic success principles.

If you’ve never read or listened to Think and Grow Rich before, this audio condensation may serve as your own personal “aha” moment. And if you have read or listened before, then this 42-minute motivational gem maybe the best refresher course ever to set you back on the road to riches.

Excellent summary of the original.

It is an excellent recap of the original. Great if you want to hit the main points frequently. I found the narrators voice to be a bit rough, but that is just personal taste.

Not a real reading of the book

I purchased this thinking it was an audible of the book... It is not. It is an overview...kind of like cliff notes. While it is informative, i now need to actually go and purchase the book and start at the beginning. Many times in the recording, Earl Nightingale says thing like... "In the book, it is written that." Or, there are many examples provided in the book... Title is deceiving as this is NOT a reading.

Nice condensed principles of book

Talks about key points of book in short time which is very nice and efficient.

I enjoy listening to Earl Nightingale.

This condenced version of think and grow rich, read by Earl Nightingale is the best one can find. you'll never get bored of listening to him. The more you listen the better it gets.
