In reading the lives of great men, I found that the first victory they won was over themselves. Self-discipline with all of them came first."

-- Harry Truman, 33rd US President

Hi Bogdan,

When I read this quote by Harry Truman, I realized it
he summarized Chapter 15 of Napoleon Hill's, Think and Grow
Rich.

These great men achieved their first great victory by controlling
their minds. To control your mind is to conquer self. Controlling the mind is
done through self-discipline and habit.

By conquering self and having that burning desire, you will receive
rewards of stupendous proportions because you have have forced Life
to pay whatever you have asked.

Those who dream by day are cognizant of many things which escape those who dream only by night. Edgar Allan Poe (1809 - 1849), "Eleonora"
