Here is another thought-provoking book from Shinn. She says:

A successful man is always asked - "What is the secret of your success?"

People never ask a man who is a failure, "What is the secret of your failure?"

It is quite easy to see and they are not interested. People all want to know how to open the secret door to success. For each man there is success, but it seems to be behind a door or wall.

This book is packed with great success stories like this one:

A number of years ago I went to California to speak at the different centers, by way of the Panama Canal, and on the boat I met a man named Jim Tully.

For years he had been a tramp. He called himself “The King of the Hoboes”.He was ambitious and picked up an education. He had a vivid imagination and commenced writing stories about his experiences.

He dramatized tramp life, he enjoyed what he was doing, and became a very successful author.

I remember one book called "Outside Looking In." It was made into a motion picture.He is now famous and prosperous and lives in Hollywood.

What opened the secret door to success for Jim Tully?
