Who do you really want to become? Imagine if the only thing standing between you and your biggest goals is not what you do, but who you are willing to become. This episode is your wake-up call to look beyond checklists and action items and start focusing on your transformation.

In most societies, we’re taught to get things done, hand in assignments, and chase tasks. But the real secret to lasting and extraordinary success is not about doing more—it’s about evolving into the type of person who can naturally attract and sustain those results. If the ladder of success feels crowded at the bottom, it’s because so few ever understand or commit to this process of becoming.

What You Need to Know

Napoleon Hill’s famous thirteenth principle, the Sixth Sense, lies at the very top of his philosophy and ties all the other success principles together. You can’t access the benefits of intuition and infinite intelligence until you’ve internalized the steps that come before it.

The sixth sense, or creative imagination, resides in the subconscious mind and requires mastering principles like desire, faith, autosuggestion, and organized planning, among others.

Receiving insight from a higher source, or infinite intelligence, is a matter of energy and receptivity—not religion. When you’re tuned in, you access ideas and wisdom beyond your current conscious mind.

Ideas don’t just come from you; they’re available to anyone who’s open and tuned in. Countless moments of intuition (like thinking of someone just as they reach out to you) are reminders of this deeper connection.

Your starting point isn’t just about what you want to achieve—it’s about choosing and claiming who you want to become.

What You Need to Do

Reflect on your current desired result. Ask yourself: If nothing needed to change about who you are, wouldn’t you already have that goal? This is your invitation to identify and commit to the kind of person you need to become.

Start developing receptivity. Practice tuning in through meditation, quiet reflection, or simply by being more open to insights and ideas from outside your immediate experience.

Study the 12 foundational principles mentioned before the sixth sense—strengthen these skills and thought habits so you’re ready to truly benefit from your intuition.

Your Next Step

Pause and make a declaration about the person you want to become. Write it down and keep it where you’ll see it every day. Then, commit to mastering one of Hill’s principles each week, using the show notes as your ongoing guide. Becoming is an inside-out process—and this episode will help you start that journey in earnest.
