Have you heard of Napoleon Hill?  He was an author and lecturer in the early part of the 20thNapoleon Hill century, influenced by such business leaders as Andrew Carnegie.

He wrote about his philosophy of achievement in a book called “Think and Grow Rich,” in 1937. Remarkably – or perhaps not – there are lessons in his observations still valid today.

Think and Grow Rich” is available in PDF format – if you want a copy of it, drop me an email (NAPOLEON@CSuiteAdvisors.org) and I’ll send you a link to download it at no cost.

How to Innovate in a Downturn – WSJ.com

What do nylon, Hewlett-Packard and the iPod have in common? Would you believe they all launched during a major financial downturn?

Excellent article by Harvard B School Prof and McKinsey partner Bhaskar Chakravorti from the Wall Street Journal, chastening entrepreneurs that this is NOT the time to hunker down. Rather, “There is considerable anecdotal evidence that crises can be catalysts for creativity.”

Need help “making lemonade”? Chakravorti’s article will do it!
