- Satish Verma (President/CEO of the Think and Grow Rich Institute)
"In every field of endeavor, there is a critical moment,
intersection, or connection when the state-of-the-art takes a
quantum leap. This happened in the field of personal development
when Andrew Carnegie and Napoleon Hill got together. The world has
never been the same, and you will not be the same once you
experience Andrew Carnegie's Mental Dynamite. Read and grow
rich."
- Jim Stovall (President of the Narrative Television Network)
"Motivational, inspirational, and highly actionable. Mental
Dynamite is THE blueprint for massive success in business and
life."
- Dr Steve Sudell (Creator of The Neck Hammock(TM) and Co-founder
of Stretch Lab) "Many of us dream of being a fly on the wall for
some of the most important conversations in history. Mental
Dynamite gives us the rarest of opportunities, as we witness
how two of the greats discuss and deconstruct high performance.
It's masterful. The nuances that are vital to getting traction in
your life are extracted brilliantly by Napoleon Hill. In addition,
James Whittaker brings it together beautifully, essentially turning
a transcript into a powerful playbook for individual greatness. It
truly proves that the outer chief is a reflection of the inner
chief."
- Greg Layton (Founder of Chief Maker) "A lot has changed since the
earliest conversations between Andrew Carnegie and Napoleon Hill in
1908. But even more hasn't changed. Mental Dynamite comes as
a beacon from the past, reminding us of timeless wisdom that is
used by the most influential predecessors of Carnegie and Hill in
the present, and should be your guide to a successful future."
- Joshua Ellis (Editor-in-Chief of Success Magazine) "The lessons
that Hill and Carnegie share in this book will help anyone turn
perceived failure to triumph. It is a must read for anyone who
wants to achieve at the highest level."
- David Meltzer (Co-founder of Sports 1 Marketing, bestselling
author, and award-winning business coach) "Mental Dynamite
uncovers the depths of our own limitless potential by giving us the
exact actions used by the legends of our time."
- Ronsley S. Vaz (Founder / Chief Energy Officer of Amplify)
"Though we all face defining moments, only a small minority of us
are shaped by them. This is a story that explains how visionaries
became giants in their chosen field. There is so much to learn from
their example. And if it worked for them, it can work for you
too."
- Dennis Kimbro (bestselling author of Think and Grow Rich: A Black
Choice) "James Whittaker is a forward-thinking leader with a wealth
of experience across a whole range of different modalities. In
Mental Dynamite, he draws on his diverse background to
extract and highlight the most powerful skills and tactics from two
of the greats in Carnegie and Hill. This book is for anyone who is
looking for the next level in any area of their life."
- Kerwin Rae (business strategist and high-performance expert)
"Mental Dynamite arrives at the perfect time, because it
explodes with the lesson that our finest teachers are the failures
that defy us to dig deeper than we ever have, to uncover treasures
inside us we never knew we had. The best thing that ever happened
to me was being rejected 11 times by eight NFL teams before making
it with the Kansas City Chiefs, and going on to be the most
accurate and prolific kicker in NFL History when I retired.
Mental Dynamite helps us to NEVER GIVE UP (how I sign every
autograph!) because Failure and Defeat are our finest mentors."
- Nick Lowery, Kansas City Chiefs All-Time Leading Scorer and Hall
of Fame.
