Produktbeschreibung
The lives of great businessmen and magnates carry valuable lessons; this set of biographies directly quotes the subjects, so that the reader may learn the habits and principles that helped their success. We find a variety of life stories here, from household names such as John D. Rockefeller and Thomas Edison, to those in commerce less remembered in the modern era. All have lessons and advice to impart, whether it is their daily routine, working habits, or means of seeking out and achieving opportunities in the world of commerce. The author does not restrict his narrative to the world of business - singers, songwriters, authors and academics also feature, explaining how they attained success and recognition. Several women feature in this biographical collection, their stories showing that ability and success can be achieved by anyone. The author is also careful to present multiple kinds of success, rather than focus solely on financial gain; the power to educate and enlighten people through science, or lift their spirits through music and the creative arts, also feature. This collection may thus be considered a well-rounded guide to those who expressed the highest human virtues, and changed humanity for the better.

Orison Swett Marden was an influential American author and founder of Success magazine, which he established in 1897. Born in New Hampshire on June 11, 1848, Marden dedicated his life to teaching others how to achieve success through personal development and self-mastery. His writings emphasized practical, common-sense principles that focused on virtues such as perseverance, hard work, and positive thinking, which he believed were key to living a successful and fulfilling life. Marden was strongly influenced by the New Thought philosophy, which underscores the power of the mind in shaping an individual's reality. Throughout his career, he wrote numerous books and articles that inspired countless individuals to reach for greater achievements and transform their lives. Marden attended several prestigious institutions, including Harvard University and Harvard Medical School, and was deeply committed to education and self-improvement. He passed away on March 10, 1924, in Los Angeles at the age of 75. Marden s son, Orison S. Marden, carried on his father s legacy. His works continue to resonate today, encouraging readers to take control of their destinies through self-belief and disciplined effort.
