Motivational Literature” and was the first book to address what makes a winner.
In Think and Grow Rich, Napoleon Hill draws on stories of

generation to illustrate his principles.
Napoleon Hill (1883-1970) enjoyed a long and successful

worldwide, that sets the standard for motivational thinking.
The Lean Startup – Eric Reis
Most startups fail. But many of those failures are
preventable. The Lean startup is a new
approach being adopted across the globe, changing the way that companies are
built and new products are launched.
Eric Ries defines a startup as an organization dedicated to
creating something new under conditions of extreme uncertainty. This is just as
true for one person in a garage or a group of seasoned professionals in a
Fortune 500 boardroom. What they have in common is a mission to penetrate that
fog of uncertainty to discover a successful path to a sustainable business.
