There is something about truth that makes it easily recognizable by all who are searching for it with open minds.


Cookie mogul Wally Amos is fond of quoting the saying, “The mind is like a parachute. It functions best when opened.” When you open your mind to the possibilities, objectively analyze information, and refuse to allow your personal preferences and biases to influence your judgment, you will be able to perceive great truths that have been overlooked by others. A closed mind, though, will cause you to miss out on some of life’s greatest offerings. If you find yourself disputing the facts, or if you keep attempting to revise them to support your beliefs, ask yourself, “Why am I so unwilling to accept this information? Am I being logical, or am I simply allowing my emotions to cloud my judgment?” The worst mistake you may ever make is trying to persuade yourself to accept a false truth. It is inappropriate to try to fool others, but when you fool yourself, disaster is sure to follow.

Napoleon Hill's Path to Purpose: 7 Steps to Living a Life that Matters


What do you want out of life?

The vast majority of people avoid answering this daunting question. As a result, they spend their days aimlessly drifting or scrambling from one task to the next, never deciding upon a larger goal or plan for their future. However, studying the lives of the world’s highest-achieving individuals quickly reveals an essential truth that success—along with meaning and fulfillment—are found in the pursuit of a Definite Major Purpose, a goal so compelling that it inspires you to take action every day toward its attainment.

Drawing from never-before-published lectures from Napoleon Hill, author of the worldwide bestsellers
Think and Grow Rich and Outwitting the Devil, this book provides a step-by-step guide to identifying your unique purpose in life, creating a plan for its attainment, and cultivating the habits necessary to make your actions and ideas more impactful. The exercises, tips, and techniques included will help you to:
  • Identify and refine your Definite Major Purpose
  • Craft short-term and long-term goals related to your major purpose
  • Strengthen your focus and creativity to achieve greater performance
  • Establish rhythms of thought and action to accelerate your results
Napoleon Hill’s Path to Purpose not only helps you fix a clear North Star for your life—it secures your path by giving you a simple formula for living out your purpose day after day, even when life’s difficulties and distractions threaten to throw you off course. Do not settle for anything less than what you want out of life.

Read this book and empower yourself to move forward confidently with the peace and mental freedom that come from a deep, abiding belief in the significance of your contributions.
