Napoleon Hill's Top Deca-Money Wisdom: 5 Quotes to Fuel Your Wealth!

Updated: Oct 30, 2023


Whatever the mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve with positive mental attitude

"You have the power to shape your own destiny. You hold the ability to influence, guide, and manage your surroundings. Your life can be crafted into what you aspire it to be." Hill empowers us, emphasizing our control over our lives. We are the architects of our fate, responsible for shaping our own destiny.


The man who does more than he is paid for will soon be paid for more than he does

Here, Hill urges us to exceed expectations and to over deliver and push past limits. This relentless determination and effort often leads to greater and bigger rewards in the future.


If you do not see great riches in your imagination, you will never see them in your bank balance

In this quote, Hill highlights the significance of visualization. If we can't imagine success, wealth, or happiness, we're unlikely to achieve it. It's about developing a way of thinking that sees a lot of good stuff around.


Opportunity often comes disguised in the form of misfortune, or temporary defeat

As per Napoleon Hill, Before success comes in any man’s life, he’s sure to meet with much temporary defeat and perhaps some failures. When defeat overtakes a man, the easiest and the most logical thing to do is to quit. That’s exactly what the majority of men do.

Hill is encouraging us to see beyond immediate setbacks. Oftentimes, what may seem like misfortune can actually be a chance for growth and prosperity. It can be an opportunity for growth and wealth. It's about maintaining a positive mindset, especially during challenging times.

No man can become a permanent success without taking others along with him

The mastermind principle is when two or more people work together in perfect harmony to achieve a common goal. Success usually involves the help of others. When a group of minds works together in a great way, it encourages each person to be more courageous than they would be alone, and it helps create a positive mental state known as faith.

Your big opportunity may be right where you are now

This serves as a reminder to stay attentive and receptive to opportunities. Often, significant opportunities exist right in front of us. It's simply a matter of acknowledging and seizing them.

Wealth, like happiness, is never attained when sought after directly. It comes as a by-product of providing a useful service

Hill says it's better to focus on helping and serving others rather than just trying to get rich. If you're useful and helpful, being wealthy might happen naturally.

It takes half your life before you discover life is a do-it-yourself project.

Hill says that getting wealth needs work. It doesn't just happen by itself; we have to make it. This shows how important to take initiative and effort in wealth creation.

Hand of Destiny

A man who cannot reach a decision promptly cannot be depended on to carry through any decision he may make.

Napoleon Hill recounts the story of his encounter with steel magnate Andrew Carnegie in his book "Lessons on Success."

That young man was Napoleon Hill, a young reporter from Virginia. That meeting in the fall of 1908 was, as he described it, when “the hand of destiny reached out. Hill had been granted an interview with Andrew Carnegie, the steel magnate who has then the world’s richest man. Hill dove into questioning, asking, “Mr. Carnegie, to what do you attribute your phenomenal success?”

The industrialist, then seventy-three, opened up quickly and, with wit and his unrivaled gift for anecdote, began to relate the stories of his achievement. Hill could hardly keep up his shorthand notes when Carnegie then began to expound on his and others theories of personal achievement.


Carnegie lamented, “it’s a shame that each new generation must find the way to success by trial and error when the principles really are clear-cut.”


On the third day of the interview, Carnegie offered him the opportunity to organize the world’s first practical philosophy of individual achievement. “I will introduce you to men who can collaborate with you in its organization. Do you want the opportunity, and will you follow through it if it is given to you?”


Hill blurted out with characteristic enthusiasm, “Yes! I’ll undertake the job, and I’ll finish it.”


Carnegie withdrew a stopwatch and told Hill it had taken him exactly twenty-nine seconds to respond. Carnegie told him, “The offer would have been withdrawn after sixty seconds. It has been my experience that a man who cannot reach a decision promptly cannot be depended on to carry through any decision he may make. I have also discovered that most who reach decisions promptly usually have the capacity to move with definite mess of purpose in other circumstances. Act Fast!
