Auf der Treppe zum Erfolg

Anyone can lead a successful life! Spiegel bestselling author Napoleon Hill, who was born and raised in poverty in the southern United States at the end of the 19th century, demonstrates that success is not tied to external factors like background. Without education and a persistent pursuit of success and power, he too would likely have faced a life of lasting poverty. However, with the help of his stepmother, he faced challenges and achieved worldwide fame with his bestseller "Think and Grow Rich."

Specific principles are of fundamental importance, according to Hill, and one should orient themselves by these on the path to success. He argues that successful people are not born; rather, they are shaped by remarkably similar, simple, and dynamic habits. From defining a concrete main goal to the willingness to live frugally and always do more than what is required – in this book, he explains for the first time the 17 most important principles and habits of success that paved his way from the bottom of the staircase to the very top.
