I think that many intellects and teachers can relate to this. For instance, I've seen nutritionists who help people lose weight, but have a lot of weight themselves to lose. It doesn't make them any less of a valuable teacher, though.

If you are a loving person who wants to do good for yourself and for others in this world, then money is the key to do some really big things. However, if you are not intelligent enough to think outside of yourself and have compassion and concern for other people, then you could do some really hurtful and bad things with money.
The point is not to worry about becoming bad with money if you are a good person. If you have good judgment, reasoning, and ability to understand other people and where they are coming from, you are going to do some great things with money. Don't resist bringing it into your life. Welcome it with open arms!
7. Don't Quit
"When defeat overtakes a man, the easiest and the most logical thing to do is quit."
Another one of the Napoleon Hill quotes I found implied that we all come across defeat and failure, and many of us quit at that point. For most people, it seems like the rational thing to do. But for the people who want to achieve great things, they have to dust themselves off, get back up, and try again.
If you want something bad enough, don't quit. It may be the easy route, but you will never get what you desired if you just stop trying.

Relationships Are Key To Success
"Until you have learned to be tolerant with those who do not always agree with you, you will be neither successful nor happy."
It's important to understand that other people are the key to your success. They can help you see things from a perspective you can't see on your own. They can help you in areas of your life that you are not able to master on your own. They can support you. But, if you do not understand that we all come with different ways of doing things and opinion on life, then you will never be able to form the types of beneficial relationships that you need.
The best thing you can do in life is to accept people as they are. Don't judge them or try to make them change; instead, accept them and work with them for the benefit of both of you. See everyone as someone who has the potential to benefit your life and even change it, and you will be on your way to more success than you could ever get on your own.
