Three Feet from Gold
Lechter & Reid

Inspired by a story in Napoleon Hill’s Think and Grow Rich, Three Feet from Gold reminds us that perseverance is often the difference between failure and breakthrough. This book resonates with me because I’ve lived the lesson: sometimes the breakthrough is just on the other side of frustration. Three Feet from Gold expands on Hill’s ideas, reminding us not to quit too soon.
I love this book because it expands on Hill’s message with a powerful modern parable. Three Feet from Gold reminds us that perseverance often matters more than talent or timing. As someone who’s pushed through setbacks, market swings, and leadership challenges, the lesson hits home: too many people quit just before the breakthrough. This book is about finding clarity in your purpose, leaning on mentorship, and having the grit to keep digging—because success may be closer than you think.
