The Thirteen Steps to Riches described in this book offer the shortest dependable philosophy
of individual achievement ever presented for the benefit of the man or woman who is
searching for a definite goal in life.
Before beginning the book you will profit greatly if you recognize the fact that the book was
not written to entertain. You cannot digest the contents properly in a week or a month. After
reading the book thoroughly, Dr. Miller Reese Hutchison, nationally known Consulting
Engineer and long-time associate of Thomas A. Edison, said— “This is not a novel. It is a
textbook on individual achievement that came directly from the experiences of hundreds of
America’s most successful men. It should be studied, digested, and meditated upon. No more
than one chapter should be read in a single night. The reader should underline the sentences
which impress him most. Later, he should go back to these marked lines and read them again.
A real student will not merely read this book, he will absorb its contents and make them his
own. This book should be adopted by all high schools and no boy or girl should be permitted
to graduate without having satisfactorily passed an examination on it. This philosophy will
not take the place of the subjects taught in schools, but it will enable one to organize and
apply the knowledge acquired, and convert it into useful service and adequate compensation
without waste of time. Dr. John R. Turner, Dean of the College of The City of New York,
after having read the book, said— “The very best example of the soundness of this philosophy
is your own son, Blair, whose dramatic story you have outlined in the chapter on Desire.” Dr.
Turner had reference to the author’s son, who, born without normal hearing capacity, not only
avoided becoming a deaf mute, but actually converted his handicap into a priceless asset by
applying the philosophy here described. After reading the story (starting on page 52), you will
realize that you are about to come into possession of a philosophy which can be transmuted
into material wealth, or serve as readily to bring you peace of mind, understanding, spiritual
harmony, and in some instances, as in the case of the author’s son, it can. help you master
physical affliction. The author discovered, through personally analyzing hundreds of
successful men, that all of them followed the habit of exchanging ideas, through what is
commonly called conferences. When they had problems to be solved they sat down together
and talked freely until they discovered, from their joint contribution of ideas, a plan that
would serve their purpose. You, who read this book, will get most out of it by putting into
practice the Master Mind principle described in the book. This you can do (as others are doing
so successfully) by forming a study club, consisting of any desired number of people who are
friendly and harmonious. The club should have a meeting at regular periods, as often as once
each week. The procedure should consist of reading one chapter of the book at each meeting,
after which the contents of the chapter should be freely discussed by all members. Each
member should make notes, putting down ALL IDEAS OF HIS OWN inspired by the
discussion. Each member should carefully read and analyze each chapter several days prior to
its open reading and joint discussion in the club. The reading at the club should be done by
someone who reads well and understands how to put color and feeling into the lines. By
following this plan every reader will get from its pages, not only the sum total of the best
knowledge organized from the experiences of hundreds of successful men, but more
important by far, he will tap new sources of knowledge in his own mind as well as acquire
knowledge of priceless value FROM EVERY OTHER PERSON PRESENT. If you follow
this plan persistently you will be almost certain to uncover and appropriate the secret formula
by which Andrew Carnegie acquired his huge fortune, as referred to in the author’s
introduction.
