Outwitting the Devil Original Manuscript

De: Napoleon Hill

Narrado por: Graham Dunlop

Following the success of his 1937 landmark best seller, Think and Grow Rich, Napoleon Hill wrote Outwitting the Devil, an exposé on the methods the Devil uses to ensnare and control the minds of human beings. Exploring the innermost depths of the psychology of motivation to understand why so many individuals, including himself, cannot find the initiative and courage they need to consistently implement the philosophy of individual achievement, Hill went so far as to interview the Devil himself.

In this original manuscript is laid out the exact nature of the power by which the Devil disarms human beings with fear, procrastination, anger, and jealousy so that they do not reach their full potential. This is the same power that paralyzed millions of individuals with fear and despondency during the Great Depression and continues to hold people back from their dreams. Complacency and mediocrity are not the root issue; they are symptoms of deeper ills that we are conditioned by society to accept. But you must open your mind to acquire knowledge and consider facts that might not harmonize with your personal beliefs in order to access a greater truth that will, as Hill said in his original preface, “bring harmony out of chaos in this age of frustration and fear.”

Read

Yes this is a really good book. I recommend everyone read it if you are struggling with purpose in life this will help you find it.

Excellent narration, thought provoking

Appreciate how articulate the voiceover was. It was relatively quick to get through and I got a lot out of it. I also like how the narrator had a different voice for the devil during the interview portion.

On the contents of the book, I thought it was important to hear. It seems that no matter what there will always be things to distract us meager humans, and the problem will only get worse in the Information Age. Best to arm yourself with the knowledge now about how this manifests to eat away at our precious time — as well as our hopes and dreams — so you can keep it in check and wake up each day with a definitive purpose.

The content is entertaining at the least and thought provoking at it's best this title has not disappointed

The only thing I can say I did not like is not hearing his voice

🚀

Napoleon hill is my favorite author I will read his books over and over again and gain better insight everytime

Interesting topic. The psychology intrigues.

I liked the psychological aspect and spiritual aspect of the interview content. I wasn’t a huge fan of the voices but didn’t bother me much. Good book. Very helpful.

The recounts are profound

I love the tense but thought provoking banter between the protagonist and the devil. Tells a compelling story of how we wander and stifle our own progress that is in the works on a plane we can't physically see.

Great listen

Loved the simplicity of the key points. Highly recommend the audible version as the voice of the devil makes listen worthwhile.

Amazing

This is by far one of his best works I’m glad I was able to experience it

Perfect. To the point. No distractions

Enjoyed this unadulterated text. Prefer it much more than the annotated version. Was a perfect listen.

Truly Enjoyable

This was a truly enjoyable listen. I appreciated the different tonalities as it made it easy to follow and kept it very intriguing!
