Produktbeschreibung

"Acres of Diamonds: Our Every-day Opportunities" is a classic lecture by Russell H. Conwell, founder of Temple University. Initially delivered in 1890, it became one of the most famous speeches in American history. Conwell's message is clear: wealth and opportunities are not found in distant lands but under one's own feet, in their immediate surroundings. He illustrates this concept through a parable about a Persian farmer who, after selling his land to search for diamonds elsewhere, learns that the new owner discovered a rich diamond mine on that very property. This story becomes a metaphor for recognizing the value and potential in one's own community and personal field of work. Conwell's work encourages the listener to seek and recognize the wealth in their own "backyard" by applying hard work, observation, and perseverance. It's a motivational call to action, emphasizing that success doesn't necessarily come from chasing distant prospects but often from exploiting the opportunities that exist where one already is.
