Book Review - Dream Big: Overcoming Fear and Achieving Success by Napoleon Hill

 

Dream Big: Overcoming Fear and Achieving Success by Napoleon Hill is a compilation of speeches and articles that inspire and encourage success. Napoleon Hill is a renowned inspirational thinker and writer. He wrote many books to help people conquer their fears and, as a result, help to achieve their dreams and goals. 

The pocket size book contains advice that is helpful to readers who need inspiration or guidance about life in general. Some of the advice was outdated but it can still be applied to modern times. The book was organized by short chapters dedicated to specific topics.  It is a collection of pieces that were previously written by the author in the 1930s and does not include any new articles.

 

I found the book to be inspirational and informative. I like the chapters were short enough to be educational but also allowed the reader to continue reading the book or to take a few minutes to process what was learned. I found most of the advice to be helpful and encouraging. There were some bits that were from another era or not applicable to modern times, such as working hard and longer than you should be, working to the point of exhaustion, and giving up sleep to work. Overall, I was able to gleam a few helpful tidbits. I would recommend this book to anyone who feels stuck or needs an extra boost in life.
