The Causes of Failure

Which are holding you back…

Week 6: 2013

Life's greatest tragedy consists of men and women who earnestly try, and fail! The tragedy lies in the overwhelmingly large majority of people who fail, as compared to the few who succeed.

Week 6: 2013

I have had the privilege of analyzing several thousand men and women, 98% of whom were classed as "failures."

Week 6: 2013

There is something radically wrong with a civilization, and a system of education, which permit 98% of the people to go through life as failures.

Week 6: 2013

But I did not write this book for the purpose of moralizing on the rights and wrongs of the world; that would require a book a hundred times the size of this one.

Week 6: 2013

My analysis work proved that there are thirty major reasons for failure, and thirteen major principles through which people accumulate fortunes.

Week 6: 2013

In this chapter, a description of the thirty major causes of failure will be given. As you go over the list, check yourself by it, point by point, for the purpose of discovering how many of these causes-of-failure stand between you and success.
