Las Vegas, Nevada, August 20, 2014 /PressReleasePing/ - In 1938 Napoleon Hill wrote
Outwitting the Devil, his sequel to the immensely popular Think and Grow Rich, and Stellaris
Films recently acquired the rights to produce the film and the accompanying "making ofbehind the scenes-documentary."
Outwitting the Devil was written two years after Think and Grow Rich. The book was so controversial for its time, but Hill knew that there was a time and a season for everything. So, he placed it in a vault and locked the manuscript away for 74 years. Amazingly, Outwitting the
Devil was written in 1938 and wasn't published until 2011.
In Outwitting the Devil, Napoleon Hill is at his best as he digs deep to reveal how fear, procrastination, anger, and jealousy prevent us from realizing our personal goals. This book is profound, powerful, resonant and rich with insight. Whether people believe Hill's conversation with the devil was real or imaginary, the take-away from this book, and the upcoming movie, is the impact Outwitting the Devil has on our ability to succeed.
