Pense e Enriqueça para Mulheres

by Sharon L. Lechter

As mulheres representam o futuro dos negócios. A evidência está por toda parte — da declaração de Warren Buffett em 2013, de que as mulheres são a chave para o sucesso financeiro da nação, aos US$ 30 trilhões em patrimônio global internacional que as mulheres têm direito a herdar. As mulheres estão liderando uma revolução global silenciosa para o bem de suas famílias, seu futuro e sua satisfação pessoal.
Embora os passos para o sucesso sejam os mesmos para todo mundo, homens e mulheres, em geral, abordam os princípios sob uma ótica muito diferente. O Pense e enriqueça original foi escrito sob uma perspectiva masculina, numa era em que a grande maioria dos executivos de negócios eram homens. Por este e muitos outros motivos, Sharon Lechter — a premiada autora e coautora do best-seller mundial Pai rico, pai pobre — criou Pense e enriqueça para mulheres.
Este novo e poderoso livro aplica os princípios de criação de riqueza de Napoleon Hill à vida da mulher moderna, combinando os clássicos 13 Passos para o Sucesso de Hill com os insights e a experiência de centenas de mulheres notáveis — incluindo Sandra Day O'Connor; Angela Merkel; Mary Kay Ash, fundadora da Mary Kay; Ginni Rometty, CEO da IBM; Tory Burch e Condoleezza Rice — para oferecer às mulheres um plano para superar obstáculos, agarrar oportunidades, definir e atingir metas, viver seus sonhos e substituir a culpa devido ao "equilíbrio trabalho-vida" pela escolha de "uma grande vida" preenchida com amor, família, significado e sucesso.

Regarded as a global expert on financial literacy, Sharon has served as a national spokeswoman and Presidential Adviser on the topic. In 2016 Sharon was appointed by Junior Achievement as a JA University of Success Founding Chancellor and in 2017 as Arizona Chairman for the 2020 Women on Boards initiative. In 2019 Sharon was appointed by Arizona State Treasurer Kimberly Yee to the Arizona Financial Literacy Task Force.

Sharon has been a pioneer in developing new technologies, programs and products to bring education into people’s lives in ways that are innovative, challenging and fun, and remains committed to education – particularly financial literacy and entrepreneurship. In 1989, she joined forces with the inventor of the first electronic 'talking book' and helped him expand the electronic book industry to a multi-million dollar international market. Since 1992, she has dedicated her professional life and directed her entrepreneurial efforts in the creation and distribution of financial and entrepreneurial education books, games and other experiential learning products.

In 1997 Sharon co-authored the international bestseller Rich Dad Poor Dad, and has released 14 other books in the Rich Dad series. Over 10 years as co-Founder and CEO, she led the Rich Dad Company and brand into an international powerhouse. In 2008, she was asked by the Napoleon Hill Foundation to help re-energize the powerful teachings of Napoleon Hill just as the international economy was faltering.

In 2009 Sharon was appointed to the National CPA Financial Literacy Commission as a national spokesperson on the topic of financial literacy and was reappointed in 2014.

In 2012, Sharon suffered a devastating loss when her son unexpectedly passed away. While Sharon continued to work, something changed. She put herself on autopilot and stopped working to her fullest, stopped striving to be her best, stopped pursuing the excellence she knew she was capable of. It was in this realization that led Sharon to her next project, the Play Big Movement- a call to action, online course, and forthcoming book about rising above whatever is stopping you from thinking and acting as to your greatest potential. With the Play Big Movement, Sharon is back and teaching the world how to take control of their time and money, live their legacy and create maximum impact.

This book is one I can read over and over. It confirmed so many thoughts and hunches I have had over the course of my lifetime. I love that it's faith based and shares some many successful women's quotes and thoughts. It's a must read for any women who is on the path for growth and prosperity through God!

[Hillary · Rating 2 out of 5]

This book was a convoluted struggle and full of little but repetitive platitudes. A few chapters were thought-provoking and one in particular inspired me to find ways to give back to my community (which I am now doing). But for the most part, this book was a disappointment. Author also promotes network marketing, which made me question her ethics.

And any woman who goes out of her way to say "I am not a feminist" has no business writing (or in this case, adapting) personal development books for women. Come on, learn what feminism actually is. Blegh.

[Carmelle · Rating 4 out of 5]

It was a very good book, filled with insight and great advice. Definitely worth the read. I would recommend it to anyone looking to learn, grow, and achieve success. It is inspirational and motivational and offers a positive approach to building a career filled with passion and satisfaction, while using the wisdom of other women.

[Lori Ben-ezra · Rating 4 out of 5]

Definitely got some good ideas from this book. Great for female entrepreneurs

[Taynia A. Coleman · Rating 5 out of 5]

A must read!!!

This book is a must read for all women from every walk of life. If you are trying to figure out what's next, then this book is for you. If you are trying to find balance and commitment in your life, then please read and take notes. Most importantly do the work! God bless!

Ei olnud piisavalt inspireeriv ja paljudest lehtedest käisin lihtsalt üle. Paljud mõtted olid juba sellised, millega ma olin eelnevalt kursis ja seega oli vähe kasulikku minu jaoks.

Just read the original.

This version left out so many of the critical aspects of Hill's work. You really have to have read and absorbed the original to get true value out of this book.

[Kari · Rating 2 out of 5]

I never read the original book, and after this there is a good chance I won't. The entrepreneur trend that is so big these days has a selfishness and lack of compassion and common sense that seems to pervade the movement, and it drives me crazy. I thought this book would be more about what women can do to make smart money choices in the business and financial worlds that still favor men. Talk about getting raises, making sure you are paid a fair wage, planning for retirement, investing, etc.

Part of my disappointment is my bad for not really knowing what Napoleon Hill's original book focused on. Apparently it actually just focused on money. How to think about it, attract it to you, and get it. I just thought after all the times I had heard about it over the years there would be a little more depth. I guess it's in the title, so I shouldn't be that surprised.

At one point Sharon says straight out that she is not a feminist. What? I mean, you can't say something like that and then not explain what you mean or why you choose not to identify as one. This was published in 2014! For women! What editor didn't catch that?!

[Lúcia Brito · Rating 2 out of 5]

Minha primeira tradução para a Citadel/CDG. Sharon Lechter dá uma adaptada leve e uma boa modernizada nos princípios de Napoleon Hill. A autora ajusta as ideias do precursor da autoajuda financeira para as mulheres e para um mundo onde as mulheres não são mais (apenas) donas de casa e mães e trabalham muito mais que os homens, pois combinam a lida doméstica (que ainda sobra pra elas basicamente) com um emprego. Pode ser uma leitura estimulante para quem está assoberbada com as pressões no orçamento e temendo não conseguir dar conta. Creio que se seja especialmente benéfico para mulheres com vocação para o comércio e empreendimentos próprios.

[Sue Bridehead (A Pseudonym) · Rating 3 out of 5]

I got some useful stuff out of this, but I'm uncomfortable endorsing material that sidles up to all that problematic law of attraction stuff. Thus the three stars instead of four, breaking my own reviewing rule.

[Lyn · Rating 4 out of 5]

Very informative. I lost interest in some ares because it seemed repetitive. For the most part the book was a good read.

[Penelope · Rating 4 out of 5]

This was a really great book and I wish I had read it. Years ago. I will be re-reading this soon.

[Georgia · Rating 4 out of 5]

I'm not the target audience for this text, but it did get me thinking, and follows the growth mindset model that I'm advocating at school.

[Savannah Bolin · Rating 3 out of 5]

Good points made, but at times a slow read. I did not follow the tasks and homework as instructed, but I did enjoy the moments of reflection it encouraged and created while reading.

This book is for women who want to build success without apologizing for ambition. Sharon Lechter takes Hill’s “13 steps to riches” and reframes them for women balancing careers, families, and societal expectations. It’s not just about money—it’s about power, confidence, and impact.

🔑 Key Takeaways 🔑
1. Desire
Define what you want and chase it relentlessly.
Example: Oprah’s burning desire to tell stories made her a global icon.
👉 Desire → Want it like oxygen.

Believe in yourself even when others don’t.
Example: J.K. Rowling kept faith in Harry Potter despite multiple rejections.
👉 Faith → Believe first, proof comes later.

Example: Mary Kay Ash repeated her mission until it became reality.
👉 Autosuggestion → Talk to your brain until it listens.

4. Specialized Knowledge
Leverage your expertise.
Example: Martha Stewart turned cooking knowledge into a lifestyle empire.
👉 Knowledge → Trivia is free, expertise pays.

Dream big and act on it.
Example: Sara Blakely imagined Spanx before anyone else believed in it.
👉 Imagination → Ideas are the currency of empires.

6. Organized Planning
Success needs structure.
Example: Indra Nooyi mapped her career path to become PepsiCo’s CEO.
👉 Planning → A dream without a plan is just a nap.

Keep going when it’s hard.
Example: Estee Lauder built her brand through relentless persistence.

👉 Subconscious → Feed it success, not fear.

11. The Brain
Your thoughts attract opportunities.
Example: Angela Merkel focused on solutions, attracting global respect.
👉 Brain → Tune your thoughts like a radio station.

12. Sixth Sense
Trust your intuition.
Example: Coco Chanel trusted her gut and revolutionised fashion.
👉 Sixth Sense → Trust your spidey sense—it’s richer than logic.

📚 Why It’s a Great Read
Because no, its not dry and boring theory—it’s stories of real women who turned ambition into achievement.
Sharon Lechter makes success principles relatable, funny, and empowering. You’ll laugh at your own habits (“Yep, that’s me procrastinating”) and walk away with a toolkit for confidence and wealth.

The Bottom Line:
Think and Grow Rich for Women book encourages you to stop apologizing for ambition and start using it to create success and significance.

My Message to All Women:
Dear woman…
for far too long, we were living in the shade—boxed into frames, told our place was in the background, our voices too soft, our dreams too big. That was the past.

If you want a role—go for it.
If you want to lead—go for it.
If you want to be a politician—go for it.
If you want to build a business—go for it.

Because you are not defined by limits, you are defined by your beliefs.

To us women… who can do everything—balancing between family and work life, between doing and leading, between nurturing and conquering.
Our strength is not in choosing a role, but in owning the ones we want.

We are no longer the background—we are the front lines.
Every time a woman steps forward, she doesn’t just break a barrier; she builds a bridge for others to cross.

And let us never forget:
every human alive today owes their life to a woman—a mum, a wife, a partner, a sister, a daughter. Women are the heartbeat of humanity, the foundation of families, and the architects of futures.

So let’s make the world where more women
are not just present, but leading.
are not just surviving, but thriving.
are not just included, but celebrated.

Because when women rise, the world doesn’t just move forward—it transforms.
Families heal, communities thrive, nations grow stronger.
Every heartbeat of humanity carries the rhythm of a woman’s courage, and when we rise, we lift generations with us.

CUỐN SÁCH MANG ĐẾN KIM CHỈ NAM THÀNH CÔNG, HẠNH PHÚC CHO MỘT NỬA THẾ GIỚI

Ra mắt lần đầu tiên cách đây hơn 80 năm, những nguyên tắc trong “Nghĩ giàu và làm giàu” của Napoleon Hill đến nay vẫn giữ nguyên giá trị là kim chỉ nam cho bất kỳ ai muốn vươn tới một cuộc sống sung túc, thịnh vượng về mọi phương diện đời sống. Với phương pháp nghiên cứu phỏng vấn hàng ngàn người thuộc mọi giới tính và tầng lớp, để hiểu về câu chuyện thành công và thất bại của họ, nhằm rút ra nguyên tắc chung nhất về xây dựng và thúc đấy cá nhân, cuốn sách của Hill thật sự mang tính phổ quát, chân thật và có giá trị lâu bền. Tuy nhiên, ra đời trong giai đoạn mà vai trò xã hội giữa nam và nữ vẫn còn nhiều cách biệt, những điển hình thành đạt trình bày trong “Nghĩ giàu, làm giàu” của Napoleon Hill lại chủ yếu tập trung vào nam giới. Đó chính là lý do, tác phẩm được xem là gối đầu giường của doanh nhân toàn thế giới ấy, phần nào đó, vẫn không chạm được nửa còn lại của thế giới. Phần thiếu hụt ấy, sau nhiều năm, đã đươc Sharon Lechter bổ sung, bù đắp qua ấn phẩm Phụ nữ hiện đại nghĩ giàu và làm giàu.

Sharon Lechter là một điển hình tiêu biểu của phụ nữ hiện đại, thành công, tạo dựng một cuộc đời giàu có không chỉ về tài chính mà còn về giá trị con người. Bà hiện là một chuyên gia quốc tế về tài chính được trọng vọng trong vai trò là thành viên hộ đồng Tư vấn Tài chính cho hai đời tổng thống Mỹ là G. W. Bush và Barack Obama. Bà đồng thời là một nhà từ thiện, nhà giáo dục, diễn giả quốc tế, và là tác giả của nhiều đầu sách bán chạy trên thế giới. Mang đến độc giả bước nối dài trong hành trình giúp đỡ doanh giới của Napoleon Hill, cuốn sách của Sharon tâp trung khai thác những hình mẫu thành công điển hình của doanh nhân nữ, trong môi trường kinh doanh quốc tế.

Cuốn sách có đề mục chương giống với nguyên tác Nghĩ giàu và làm giàu. Mỗi chương sẽ bắt đầu bằng việc tóm tắt ngắn gọn bài học của Napoleon Hill. Sau phần tóm tắt bài học sẽ là câu chuyện thành công của những nhà lãnh đạo nữ đã vận dụng nguyên tắc làm giàu ấy. Tuy nhiên, dựa trên những nguyên tắc thành công đã được chứng minh qua thực tế và thời gian của Napoleon Hill, Sharon Lechter phân tích thấu đáo, sâu sát con đường từ khởi nghiệp đến khi gõ của thành công của những bông hồng trên thương trường. Từ đó, bà vạch ra được 13 nguyên tắc – 13 bước đi chiến lược dẫn đến thành công dành cho phụ nữ thời hiện đại. Đó cũng là lý do, Sharon Lechter không những tôn vinh sự nghiệp của Napoleon Hill mà bà còn là hiện thân cho những triết lý của Napoleon Hill.

Theo quan điểm của Sharon Lechter, phụ nữ có nhiều thế mạnh và tiềm lực vẫn bị chôn vùi, bó buộc trong những định kiến và định chế xã hội. Khai thác được những thế mạnh này, họ có thể tạo nên những thành công ấn tượng. Đây cũng là ưu tiên được Sharon trình bày trong sách. Sharon Lechter chia sẻ: “Tôi tin rằng có rất nhiều, nếu không muốn nói là hầu hết phụ nữ đang phải đối mặt với vấn đề thiếu tự tin vào bản thân. Có thể, một phụ nữ không có khả năng thay đổi điều luật về trả lương công bằng và trao cơ hội đồng đều, nhưng tất cả phụ nữ có thể thay đổi cuộc đối thoại nội tâm của mình về khả năng thành công của bản thân. Phụ nữ hiện đại nghĩ giàu và làm giàu tập trung vào cách phụ nữ ngày nay có thể phá bỏ xiềng xích tư duy và định kiến cũ từng trói buộc họ như thế nào, để rồi tự tin tạo dựng cuộc sống thành công và ý nghĩa”.

[Shahida Haydari · Rating 4 out of 5]

I read this book a while ago but from what I remember is that it’s a self-help classic that teaches the mindset and principles behind achieving wealth and success. Based on insights from successful figures like Andrew Carnegie and Henry Ford, Hill emphasizes the power of desire, faith, persistence, and clear planning.

While some ideas may feel dated, the book’s core message—success starts in the mind—remains relevant and inspiring. Whether you’re chasing financial goals or personal growth, Think and Grow Rich is a powerful reminder of the importance of mindset and action in achieving your dreams.

[Louise · Rating 4 out of 5]

Napoleon Hill's classic is a classic for a reason - many of this philosophies have stood the test of time. Here, Sharon Lechter takes Hill's 13 steps and applies them to the modern day and, specifically, with women in mind. She includes quotes and anecdotes from successful women, and how she's applied Hill's teachings in her life and the results she's gotten. The result is a new take on the original "Think and Grow Rich" with some fresh insights from some of the world's most impactful and influential women. An inspiring read and great reminder!

Empowering, Motivational, & Success

Think and Grow Rich for Women is a phenomenal read especially if you are feeling lost and indecisive on the choices you want to make your life more successful and filled with your purpose of what you are going to enjoy doing for the next 50 years of your life. I really enjoyed this read, that I am actually going to buy the book for myself since I borrow this copy from the public library.

Sometimes this book portrays women in negative stereotypes which I wasn't fond of, so if you read it you'd have to be able to discern what you want out of it
