About Earl Nightingale ![]() At that time, no one, that Earl asked seemed to have an answer to his questions. Not his mom or any of the other adults in his neighborhood. But, certain that someone, somewhere, had the answer, and had written it down, Earl marched himself off to the library and began a literary search that would stretch over the next twenty years - a search that would lead Earl to study the world’s great religions, philosophy and psychology. ![]() Before being mustered out of the war, Earl was returned to the states and was an instructor at Camp Lejeune, North Carolina. While there he noticed a new radio station under construction, and applied for a job. He was hired by WJNC, and began his radio career. ![]() Later, expanding his horizon, Earl bought a small Franklin Life Insurance agency, where each Saturday morning, he would give little pep talks to the salesmen, hoping to inspire and motivate them to be the best salesmen they could be. One day, Earl told his office manager that he planned to take a fishing vacation and would be away for a few weeks. Because the salesmen relied so heavily on their weekly pep talks from Earl, the manager expressed concern that sales would drop during Earl’s absence. Earl came up with the idea to record something that could be played while he was gone. ![]() His enlightenment had come when he was twenty-nine, while working at CBS. He happened to be reading, Think and Grow Rich, when he read the words, “we become what we think about”. Suddenly, like a bolt out of the blue, he realized that he had been reading the same truth over and over again, from the New Testament, in the sayings of Buddha, in the writings of Lao Tse, to the works of Emerson. “We become what we think about.” “As ye sow, so shall ye reap.” Of course. We can’t become anything but what we think! So, it was from this enlightenment that Earl wrote his, The Strangest Secret message. He said he called it that, because of the irony of it all - that this truth of why we become, whatever it is we become, is no “secret” at all, and therefore, it’s “strange” that we don’t all know about it! Earl gave the recording to his manager and left on his fishing trip. When he returned, he was amazed at the reaction to the message. Everyone who had heard the record, wanted one for themselves. Earl pressed more records for the salesmen. The salesmen played it, not only for themselves, but for their families; and friends, and when the others heard it, wanted one, too. Over the next thirteen years, the demand for The Strangest Secret would grow so large that Earl accepted an offer of help to fulfill orders from an acquaintance, Lloyd Conant, who had a small mail order company. Together, they formed the Nightingale-Conant Corporation of Chicago and became the founding pioneers and world leaders in the personal development industry. The Strangest Secret , went on to receive a Gold Record. The only recording of it’s kind to ever go Gold. ![]() In 1985, Earl was inducted into The Radio Hall of Fame. During his lifetime, Earl Nightingale wrote and recorded over 7,000 radio programs, 250 audio programs as well as television programs and videos. In the mid-eighties, Earl wrote his first book, Earl Nightingale’s Greatest Discovery for which he received the Napoleon Hill Gold Medal for Literary Excellency. Just prior to his passing, he created a new format for a book that included his text, his illustations, and incorporated space for a private journal. He called it The Winner’s Notebook . ![]() Today, Earl Nightingale is remembered as the greatest philosopher of his time, and his best selling programs and books continue to sell daily, and inspire new generations around the world, to reach their highest potential. |

U think so ZZZ????? Or only the Earl thinks so? I strongly disagree. ![]() What's your belief on this, Priya-ji? I also disagree with the alleged Earl... is that a name or a title? ![]() I hardly think we are where we are because we want it so. True, most often the choices we make are ultimately our own. We decide a certain path in life, we choose X or Y in a given situation. But does that necessarily mean we want it so? That the choice is made and we smile delightedly with a sense of accomplishment? How often the choices are just lesser evil or bigger evil. What happiness is granted to us there? It is easy to talk about mind power--If I will this, it will be so. Or to say if U cannot cure something endure it. Bah!!!! Neither can we transform situations nor can we always be happy with what is given to us. Most often our happiness (and I am equating the word want with happiness here) depends on external factors, on those around us. When we can hardly control our own selves what hope have we to change the world--even the little world in our own little pond? I sometimes feel the world has 2 kind of people--the kind who think and cannot act and the kind who act and never think. The second kind is pretty lucky actually. And maybe the first kind are just escapists. All very puzzling. Anyway bottomline. I disagree with Ur precious Earl. ![]() ![]() |
