Towards the end of his classic book on self-help, Think and Grow Rich, Napoleon Hill devoted a whole page to two short sentences:
The “depression” was a blessing in disguise. It reduced the whole world to a new starting point that gives everyone a new opportunity.
On Monday December 1st the National Bureau of Economic Research announced that the current recession began in December 2007, so with that in mind let’s take another look at what’s Napoleon Hill wrote.
The first thing to notice is that Napoleon Hill plays the word “depression” in inverted commas. This was to show that he himself was not prepared to take other people’s definitions of a situation as his reality. Instead he focused on seeking out the hidden benefit, the “blessing in disguise” and proclaimed in capital letters that “every failure brings with it the seed of an equivalent advantage”.
