Rick's Comments
In 1954
I started reading all of Napoleon Hill's books and since then read each
one over thirty-five times each (I stopped counting): Law of Success,
Think and Grow Rich, The Master Key to Riches, Grow Rich With Peace of
Mind, Success Through a Positive Mental Attitude, You Can Work Your Own
Miracles, and Succeed and Grow Rich Through Persuasion.
In 1970 I bought a distributorship to market Napoleon Hill's
"Philosophy of Success" program and started teaching his Success Course. I
created The Master Mind Alliance Success Club to help my students
follow through and put the principles into practice. In addition to
teaching the course in hotels, meeting rooms, and in-house in many large
and small corporations, I also taught the course in San Quentin Prison and
at the Delancy Street Foundation for many ex-cons, pimps, prostitutes,
drug and alcohol addicts.
In 1974, I got a phone call from a Mr. John Haid who was the president
of the Napoleon Hill Academy. He said that he heard quite a bit
about my classes and me and that he wanted to fly out to San Francisco to
meet with me. When we got together, he told me he was going to set up a
Napoleon Hill Academy Franchise in Northern California and wanted to
find the best-qualified person to run it. He was here for about a week and
interviewed several eager people who wanted that privilege. Many of them
were very successful and had lots of money to gladly pay for the
franchise. After many meetings with each one of us, John decided that I
was the most knowledgeable on Napoleon Hill's Success principles and gave
the franchise to me. I am still sharing these principles in my Science of
Success Achievement Course that you my students are studying today.
As a result of all of these years of studying and going the extra mile
teaching Napoleon Hill's success principles I have been able to pluck
out the very best of the best success ideas, principles, and method of
putting them into practice. That is what I am sharing with you in our
Science Of Success Achievement course, through our Success
Academy.
