This "secret was extensively used by Resident Woodrow Wilson during World War I. It
was passed on to every soldier who fought in the war, carefully wrapped in the training
received before going to the front. President Wilson told me it was a strong factor in
raising the funds needed for the war.
A peculiar thing about this secret is that those who once acaerie it and use it, find
themselves literally swept on to success. If you doubt this, study the names of those who
have used it, wherever they have been mentioned; check their records for yourself, and be
convinced.
The secret to which I refer cannot be had without a
price, although the price is far less than its value. It cannot be had at any price by those
who are not intentionally searching for it.it cannot be given away, it cannot be purchased
for money, for the reason that it comes in two parts. One part is already in possession of
those who are ready for it.
The secret serves equally well all who are ready for it. Education has nothing to do with it.
Long before I was born, the secret had found its way into the possession of Thomas A.
Edison, and he used it so intelligently that he became the world's leading inventor,
although he had but three months of schooling.
The secret was passed on to Edwin C. Bames, a business associate of Mr. Edison. He
used it so effectively that, although he was then making only $12,OOO a year, he
accumulated a great fortune, and retired from active business while still a young man.
You will find his story at the beginning of the first chapter. It should convince you that
riches are not beyond your reach, that you can still be what yon wish to be, that money,
fame, recognition and happiness can be had by all who are ready and determined to have
these blessings.
Mr.Carnegie's request I analyzed hundreds of well-known men, many of whom admitted
that they had accuntulated their vast fortunes through the aid of the Carnegie secret;
among these men were:
These names represent but a small fraction of the hundreds of well-known Americans
whose achievements, financial and otherwise, prove that those who understand and apply
the Carnegie secret reach high stations in life. I have never known anyone who was
inspired to use the secret who did not achieve noteworthy success in his chosen calling. I
have never known any person to distinguish himself, or to accumulate riches of any
consequence, without possession of the secret. From these two facts I draw the
conclusion that the secret is more important as a part of the knowledge essential for
self-determination, than any which one receives through what is popularly known as
"education." What is education anyway? This has been answered in full detail.
Somewhere, as you read, the secret to which I refer will jump from the page and stand
boldly before you, if you are ready for it! When it appears, you win recognize it. Whether
you receive the sign in the first or the last chapter, stop for a moment when it presents
itself, and turn down a glass, for that occasion will mark the most important turning-point
of your life.
Remember, too, as you go through the book, that it deals with facts and not with fiction
its purpose being to convey a great universal truth through which an who the ready may
learn what to do and how to do it! They will also receive the needed stimulus to make a
start.
