Among the people Hill researched were :-
Henry Ford John D Rockefeller Thomas Edison Theodore Roosevelt George Eastman Wilbur Wright

F W Woolworth William Wrigley jr Alexander Graham Bell

The full list reads like the “Who’s who” of the United States in the early part on the twentieth century.
So what traits-in-common did all these remarkable people possess that contributed to each of their success? Well, the full answer to that can be seen in Hills’
bestseller, “Think and Grow Rich” (which incidentally has very little to do with riches).
For the purposes of this project, and in particular this chapter, the most significant trait that each of them disclosed, was a belief in the existence of a super-
conscious mind, a sixth sense. That is, acceptance of the existence of a higher self, a source of intelligent inspiration and communication beyond the constraints
of our current traditional thinking.
The worlds’ greatest thinkers and most creative people have acknowledged the infinite power and wonder of the super-conscious mind. Ralph Waldo
Emerson, the philosopher and poet called it the “over soul” saying “we lie in the lap of an immense intelligence that answers our every need”, saying
that when we receive insights from this source, we recognise them as coming from a place far beyond ourselves and our own limited minds.
Napoleon Hill referred to it as “infinite intelligence,” the universal storehouse of all imagination and creativity. He proposed that the ability to access this
storehouse was the significant trait that contributed to the success of the hundreds of people he interviewed through his years of research.

Carl Jung, the Swiss psychoanalyst, rival of the famous Sigmund Freud, called it the supra-conscious mind, declaring that it contained all the wisdom of the
human race, past, present and future. Many labels have been attributed to it, the “universal subconscious mind,” “universal mind,” “God-Mind” and the
“creative subconscious”.
Whatever it is called, its existence provides the potential for limitless accomplishment.

Understanding of the super-conscious mind is in its infancy, much as the sub conscious mind was one hundred years ago.
Famous examples of practical use of the super-conscious

There are famous examples of the super-conscious mind being the source of true creativity in man.
• Ralph Waldo Emerson confessed that his best works seemed to flow through him as if “writing themselves”. His works remain among the most beautiful
and inspirational in the English language.

• Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart could see and hear the music “appear” in his mind and was able to write it down, note perfect, the first time.

• Many of the famous composers, including Beethoven, Bach and Brahms accessed the super-conscious mind when composing their greatest pieces that have
since become timeless.
