SIX STEPS THAT TURN DESIRES INTO GOLD
from Napoleon Hill's book, "Think and Grow Rich"
Desiring riches with a state of mind that becomes an obsession, planning definite ways and means to acquire riches, and backing those plans with persistence that does not recognize failure, will bring you riches.
Step #1 — Fix in your mind the exact amount of money you desire. It is not sufficient merely to
say, "I want plenty of money." Be definite as to the amount.
Step #2 — Determine exactly what you intend to give in return for the money you desire. There is
no such reality as "something for nothing."
|
Describe what business or service you will provide. Or describe what you will do to deserve the riches you want. Make sure the value of what you will give is equal or greater than the riches you wish to receive.
|
Step #3 — Establish a definite date when you intend to possess the money you desire.
Step #4 — Create a definite plan for carrying out your desire, and begin at once, whether you are
ready or not, to put this plan into action.

Step #5 — Write out a clear, concise statement of the amount of money you intend to acquire,
name the time limit for its acquisition, state what you intend to give in return for the
money, and describe clearly the plan thorough which you intend to accumulate it.
Step #6 — Read your written statement aloud twice daily, once before retiring at night, and once
after rising in the morning. As you read -- see and feel and believe yourself already in
possession of the money.
