Key Takeaway
You were born with everything you need to be rich. The only thing standing between you and wealth is your paradigm — the collection of habits and beliefs programmed into your subconscious. Change the paradigm through conscious repetition and you change your results.
The Review
Bob Proctor's You Were Born Rich takes Napoleon Hill's principles and adds a deeper exploration of the mental laws that govern wealth creation. Proctor, who was mentored by Earl Nightingale and studied Think and Grow Rich obsessively, argues that you already possess everything you need to be rich — the problem is the paradigms (subconscious programs) that keep you operating below your potential. The book covers the Law of Vibration, the importance of a definite purpose, and the specific mental exercises Proctor used to transform himself from a high school dropout earning $4,000 a year to a multi-millionaire.
