Day 30: Think and Grow Rich

Napoleon Hill in Think and Grow Rich says: "Our brains become magnetized with the dominating thoughts which we hold in our minds, and, by means with which no man is familiar, these "magnets" attract to us the forces, the people, the circumstances of life which harmonize with the nature of our dominating thoughts."

In other words, you literally become a magnet for the things you want. If you truly want money, money literally can't say no.

Sometimes, applying this principle helps with money or other issues:

"The best solution to a problem is almost always the simplest solution."

This principle is known as Occam's razor, after William of Occam - a fourteenth-century English scientist and is very much in line with the material in What The Bleep and The Secret.
