Talk and Grow Rich: How to Create Wealth Without Capital

I bought this book while backpacking in Katmandu - Nepal a few years ago. It combines Eastern and Western philosophy in a very simple way and teaches the key to success is in meditation. This is the secret behind Mr. Ron Holland's formula. SILENCE, STILLNESS AND SOLITUDE. In this remarkable book, Ron Holland explains how everyone can tap the unlimited power of their unconscious mind any time they like. He shows us how we can use the three keys - silence, stillness and solitude - to discover ways to achieve any ends we desire, simply by learning to talk to people. Find out: How to persuade people to do what you want, but have them think it was all their idea. How to sell anything to anyone including the most hardened and demanding buyer. How to generate so many foolproof ideas that you will need to carry a pen and paper around with you to write them all down."

I'm surprised no one has written a review about this book before. Bad luck that it's out of print because it's a real gem. It ties together to schools of wealth and business ideas: the Think and Grow Rich line of thinking and the NLP based communication thinking. In other words it's the inner game and the outer game in the one book. Ron Holland articulates his ideas very well and provides the evidence of his concepts from his own life. What makes this a great book is the fact that Holland doesn't claim to have disovered the techniques he uses. He simply says these are the techniques, here's what I have been able to do with them. That makes the book inspirational as well as informative.
