Napoleon Hill, the forefather of the modern personal development movement and author of the motivational classic, Think and Grow Rich, has inspired millions with his words and thoughts on discovering success and abundance within oneself. It is a message that continues to resonate, but few have ever had the opportunity to hear the “success” lecture by the man himself.

At the University of Virginia archives, Don M Green, CEO of the Napoleon Hill Foundation, was doing a routine inventory check when he discovered a box of unedited and undeveloped 16-millimeter film canisters, circa 1960. After working carefully to restore and digitize the filmed content, what was discovered was “pure gold” – Napoleon Hill and his longtime partner W. Clement Stone sharing their inspirational insights on the 13 keys to success.
