Acres of Diamonds by Russell H. Conwell - Full Audiobook

Acres of Diamonds by Russell Conwell is renowned as a classic work on how to be great regardless of your station in life. This book originated as a speech that the minister Conwell delivered over 6,000 times around the world. Here the author argues that men and women need not look elsewhere for wealth and prosperity; success can be found in his or her own community.
Conwell is the Founder of Temple University in Philadelphia Pennsylvania, an institution that was established largely upon income derived from the original Acres of Diamonds speech. We hope you enjoy this lively and inspirational exploration of the riches that exist right in front of us all.

Matthew 13:44-46 New International Version (NIV) The Parables of the Hidden Treasure and the Pearl 44 “The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field. When a man found it, he hid it again, and then in his joy went and sold all he had and bought that field. 45 “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant looking for fine pearls. 46 When he found one of great value, he went away and sold everything he had and bought it.

[@Sam-fp8zm]

@Tim Endrizzi jesus said to the pharisees "the kingdom of God is within you" so it means the holy spirit, fruits of the spirit, peace that passes understanding, eternal life.

[@luckyhappyrebecca6347]

It's TRUE the acers if diamonds we look for in foreign countries its within our communities The only problem is that alot of us are confused, less beliefs and we lack self confidence

[@nasirbala9120]

the book is good! but something baffles me, had it been ali (the man that sold his farm) was lucky to hit the diamonds come back and buy his farm and be damn rich the tittle of the story would have be "BELIEVING IN YOURSELF" lol

[@classiql]

This human cricket walked up the clerk..... With a lisp 😂.

[@dakotadak100]

I cannot think of a single son of a wealthy man I know who didn't likewise end up wealthy....that evidence flies in the face of the idea in this book that capital is irrelevant. That's the equivalent of giving all poor men $1,00,000 and saying they will all end up poor...that's preposterous!

[@christineguerrero5678]

Daniel Baker That's most likely because they have a wealthy mindset. And either way, that only accounts for 5% of millionaires. 95% are first generation.

Let me say here clearly ... ninety-eight out of one hundred of the rich men of America are honest." - Russell Conwell Again, utter tripe from an elitist twit.

+Christopher Snow *Plutocrats Despising the Poor: An American Tradition* _..."I don't think they're cowering at the idea that the masses might organize and take something away from them (they're too powerful to worry about such a remote possibility). Yet I'm sure they feel it in their bones that their "Acres of Diamonds" worldview is nothing but a myth. At some level they must hold a deep-seated awareness (as Alan Greenspan admitted to Representative Henry Waxman in October 2008), that their faith in the perfection of markets, like the rest of their belief system, is total bullshit._ _It's amazing how these people can whine in public about how they're being mistreated by people who change the sheets at the luxury hotels they stay in. But if you spend your life surrounded with sycophants who constantly tell you how brilliant you are it's possible to exist inside a bubble inside a bubble inside a bubble_. _Many of these same rich right-wing white guys who complain about not being treated fairly use their political muscle to squeeze their tax burden down to zero and spend lavishly on pet political projects like initiatives stripping workers of collective bargaining rights, slashing social programs, and so on._ _And they get the biggest returns on their investments by financing the campaigns of their surrogate politicians. Their bogus sociological theories are only widely ventilated because they are wealthy and powerful."_ --- Joseph A. Palermo

Misinterpretation. He's saying the process by which you gain wealth, honestly from your own labor and hard work will ,most times, make you a better person. (You also have to consider the era in which he was in...people progressively become more evil sad to say so today, I'm sure the statistic of honest wealthy people and dishonest wealthy people has changed.) He's not saying all rich people are good. He's saying that average people need to rid the connotation of wealth and evil. I believe we (I've been guilty also) view wealth negatively because wealth may seem unreachable so the only explanation possible is that it is acquired by dishonest means. Acquiring wealth quickly (inheritance, lottery) would not be the proper example to use to discredit his message because he address that. Remember he spoke of "the rich son" and how he basically despises that scenario. Those people forfeit the refinement process one goes through to build a fortune because they didn't/don't have to build. He said nothing of poor=a bad person. As Earl Nightingale puts it, we are a sum total of our thoughts/decisions so whatever your (generally speaking) economic status is today, it's the result of a choice if you are in capitalist America. Other countries, it's a different story. Now if one is greedy, then that is the root of all evil which he also states..."the LOVE of money is the root of all evil"
