Think and Grow Rich
Cut along the dashed lines and pass the cards around the table.
Picture yourself reading this book curled up somewhere comfortable. Was there a moment when it gave you a little lift, or made you roll your eyes with affection? What were you doing when it happened?
Hill wrote for readers going through hard times in the 1930s. Did the book remind you of a grandparent, parent or older friend who got through lean years with hope? Tell us about them.
Hill puts a lot of weight on a burning desire. What is one wish, big or small, that has been quietly glowing in you lately, and how did it feel to think about it while you read?
The Master Mind is a circle of people who lift each other up. Who has been part of your own circle over the years, and how did it feel to be believed in?
Persistence comes up again and again. Is there a time you kept going when quitting would have been easier? What kept you warm through it?
Hill suggests saying your goals out loud to yourself every day. Did that idea feel comforting, awkward or a bit of both? Do you have any small rituals that help you feel steady?
The book is full of confidence that belief can change your life. Where did that bring you comfort, and where did it make you feel tender, maybe thinking of struggles that effort alone can't fix?
By the last page, is there one idea from the book you want to keep close, like a note in your coat pocket? Is there one you're happy to leave on the shelf?
