How much can Men succeed without Women?
May 30, 2007 - 07:00 PM

Most people believe that that ultimate knack for a man to succeed and the desire to accumulate wealth is, in most cases, influenced by the woman (or women) in his life. This must have given weight to the saying that “behind every successful man, there’s a woman”.
This fact is vividly captured by Napoleon Hill in his all-time-classic, Think and Grow Rich where he explained that:

“Man's greatest motivating force is his desire to please woman! The hunter who excelled during prehistoric days, before the dawn of civilization, did so, because of his desire to appear great in the eyes of woman. Man's nature has not changed in this respect. The "hunter" of today brings home no skins of wild animals, but he indicates his desire for her favor by supplying fine clothes, motor cars, and wealth. Man has the same desire to please woman that he had before the dawn of civilization. The only thing that has changed, is his method of pleasing. Men who accumulate large fortunes, and attain to great heights of power and fame, do so, mainly, to satisfy their desire to please women.”

Napoleon Hill believes that if you take women out of men’s lives, their great wealth would be useless to most of them.
This conception is however contested by a few men especially the young and energetic ones.

What is your opinion about this issue? Be a bit personal and tell us what influences or pushes you most, in your quest to succeed in all your endeavors and make wealth at the end of the day. I know most men will not admit that they are easily influenced by the women they prefer, because it is in the nature of the male to want to be recognized as the stronger of the species.
This question is not for men only, the ladies are in even better position to assess their spouses and partners and confirm or disprove this notion.

By the way, if you’ve not read or have a copy of Napoleon Hills book, Think and Grow Rich, you can download a free copy of the e-book here: >>CLICK TO DOWNLOAD<<

Thanks for getting involved.

What a very interesting topic. Well, I work in the construction industry here in the Philippines which is still technically a "man's world".

What I have observed is that the need of men to be admired or to impress women is true to some extent. I guess this stems from their role in society: that of a provider. They know that success, welath, and power are considered attractive to women.

Moreover, one thing that I do not understand is how men, no matter how many women they have seen or had relationships with, are still very interested at the sight of women. Is it an effect of testosterone? =)

umm very interesting if you allow me to REPHRASE your sentence to
"How Long can men succeed without women"
a man as you mentioned does a lot of stuff with a primary goal in mind not just success but to attract women
a man can succeed without women but the point is he will get to a point where there is no reason to continue i mean ok he got wealth power and he bought all what he desired then what if he dont have a woman next to him supporting him he will simply crack thats why i said rephrase it wink
and yes he NEEDS a woman also one woman can be very supportive and helpful picking a wrong one will result in that man's destruction.
regarding "sandygaspay " post she is 100% right well guess MEN were as in french "GOURMENT" or they have the tendency to have more and more they just dont stop why is that is a question i can't answer lol
but look to it men desire wealth when they got it they want more and more then they go after power then they go after anything they want more n more guess that wont change
since the creation till nowadays
