Acres of Diamonds
ByPublisher Description
What is success?
How to achieve success?
These questions have bothered the human soul and mind since inception— even more so in the present times. Russell Herman Conwell, an American Baptist minister, philanthropist, and writer, in the early 20th century, gave us a way to fulfil this long sought-after desire.
Success is a spiritual idea— the result of one’s spiritual principles. And you can find success or a fortune only if you know where to look. So where should you look? Just "dig in your own backyard!" The central idea of the book is that one need not look elsewhere for opportunity, achievement, or fortune; the resources to achieve all good things are present in one's own community. The book shows how being honest and helping others helps us achieve great fortunes, even monetarily.
The key to success:
1. Prosper where you are (there is a veritable gold mine where you are NOW, find it).
2. Great men are often plain men. Greatness does not come by gaining some "important" office.
3. Figure out what people want and then give it to them.
