His lifework continues under the direction of the Napoleon Hill Foundation.

Introduction
A Life Change Awaits You
By Mitch Horowitz
Can a book change a life? From experience, I know that it can. The three books condensed into this collection—Think and Grow Rich; The Power of Your Subconscious Mind; and Public Speaking to Win!—have exercised tremendous influence over me as a writer, artist, and businessperson. Collectively, they have dramatically improved my life. In these abridgments, each done with veneration for the author’s vision, I have retained exactly what I learned.
I want to share with you my discoveries—and I think when you are done with Success Secrets of the Great Masters, you will be prepared to add your own.
• I once reduced Napoleon Hill’s Think and Grow Rich to a single sentence: Emotionalized thought directed toward one passionately held aim—aided by organized planning and the Master Mind—is the root of all accomplishment.
I ask you to hold that in mind and return to it as you experience this condensation of Hill’s classic program. No one has done more than Hill to arrange the mental principles of success into one core curriculum.
• Joseph Murphy’s The Power of Your Subconscious Mind is the perfect mystical adjunct to Hill. In a manner that is infectious and persuasive, Murphy contends that your subconscious mind is an engine of causation, and that once you impress the subconscious with an aim or wish it devises methods of progress and unfoldment that, at times, seem astounding. This is a principle with which Hill agreed.
• Finally, this collection contains an abridgment of Dale Carnegie’s original public-speaking course, here titled Public Speaking to Win! Carnegie’s lessons taught me the overarching power of preparation not only in devising a public talk but in every undertaking in life. The genius of Carnegie’s lesson plan is that—like all great ethical and performance-based lessons—it transcends the concerns of its title to become an overall guide to personal effectiveness in every facet of life: work, relationships, and creativity.
If you study these abridgments carefully you will enter into the most powerful inspirational and motivational lessons to emerge from the self-help field. Will they change your life? Begin and find out.

ABOUT THE AUTHORS
INTRODUCTION
The Power of a Single Book
The book you are about to experience has probably touched more lives than any other work of modern self-help. Try a small personal experiment: Carry a copy of Think and Grow Rich with you through an airport, grocery store, shopping mall, or any public place—and see if more than one person doesn’t stop you and say something like, "Now, that’s a great book …"
I have met artists, business people, doctors, teachers, athletes—people from different professions and possessed of seemingly different outer goals—who have attested that Think and Grow Rich made a concrete
