Napoleon Hill called the thirteenth and final step of Think and Grow Rich, ?The Sixth Sense,? adding: ?This principle is the apex of the philosophy.?

Time has validated the success master's insight.

In The Sixth Sense,Mitch Horowitz, one of today's most literate voices of self-help, explores the practical uses of this culminating step in Hill's philosophy, including how:

• Your brain is a ?receiving station? sensitive to influences all around you.
• ESP, telepathy, and precognition are facts demonstrated by replicable and recent lab data. ?Mental telepathy is a reality,? Hill wrote, with emphasis in the original. He was right.
• Due to your receptivity to extra-physical impressions, you must carefully cultivate environment, relationships, and colleagues.
• Your psyche functions like any physical organ?it is subject to fatigue, exhaustion, and overuse, just as it performs better under conditions of health, vitality, and adequate rest.
• You must beware of factors that cloud your mind's functions, such as intoxication, boredom, poor physical habits, and negative emotions.
• Enthusiasm is a vital property in accessing imagination, intuition, and insight.
• By using all the lessons in Think and Grow Rich, it is possible to cultivate a sixth sense through which hunches and flashes of insight reach you.
• Pay attention to enthusiasms and forebodings. This may be the sixth sense communicating.
• You can trust intuitions and insights when they follow dedicated study and effort. These are not fickle or errant notions but possibly the subconscious and sixth sense breaking through.
• Precognition and retrocausality?the subject of recent academic studies and meta-analyses?demonstrate that future actions can improve current performance.
• An imaginary council, as described in Hill's final step, can augment?but not replace?the Master Mind principle.
• We experience daily moments that are ?prime time? for intuition, autosuggestion, and ESP-related activity. Learn how to cultivate them.
