The Hideout

A kind, blundering Czech engineer is pressured by the Nazi government to hand over his invention, which could be key to their military operations. He flees to Paris, hoping to sell his invention to the French government instead; yet when the Germans invade France, he is forced into hiding, and spends months in a dark, damp cellar. Alone, he dwells on his memories - of his troubled marriage, and his decision to leave his wife behind in Czechoslovakia. When he is given the unexpected chance to redeem himself, both to his wife and history, he seizes it with utter determination - even though this heroic act will be his last.

Napoleon Hill's Outwitting the Devil: The Secret to Freedom and Success

Napoleon Hill's Outwitting the Devil: The Secret to Freedom and Success [Audio+PDF]

Napoleon Hill's Outwitting the Devil: The Secret to Freedom and Success [Audio+PDF]
Author(s):     Napoleon Hill
Publisher:     
Date:     2011-06-07     Format: mp3 +pdf /241MB+4 MB      ISBN10/ISBN13 : 1455810169/9781455810161    
    

In 1938, just after publication of his all-time best-seller Think and Grow Rich, Napoleon Hill reveals that he broke the Devil’s Code, forcing him to confess his secrets. The resulting manuscript — Outwitting the Devil — proved so controversial, it was hidden for more than seventy years. Now Sharon Lechter brings us this important book, annotating and editing it for a contemporary audience. Using his legendary ability to get to the root of human potential, Hill digs deep to identify the greatest obstacles we face in reaching our personal goals — including fear, procrastination, anger, and jealousy — as tools orchestrated by the Devil himself. 

 These hidden methods of control can lead us to ruin, and Hill reveals the seven principles of good that will allow us to finally triumph over them and succeed. Fascinating, provocative, and empowering, Outwitting the Devil shows how to create your own path to success, harmony, and fulfillment in an age of uncertainty and fear. “My simple faith is this: If we are created in God’s image, then we were born to create, and to create is to prosper. [This] previously unpublished Napoleon Hill manuscript... I’ve read it and recommend it.” – Rich Karlgaard, Publisher of Forbes magazine
