Wally Amos, the man whom many consider to be the father of the gourmet cookie industry, has turned lemons into lemonade so often in his life that in his official portrait he holds a pitcher in one hand and a glass of lemonade in the other. A perennial optimist, Amos refuses to acknowledge that obstacles are anything other than stepping-stones to success. In a career that has spanned several decades, he has made it to the pinnacle of success several times, only to lose everything and be forced to start over. But he’s never lost faith. "You have to have the trust and faith to let go and not agonize," he says. "Don’t waste your time worrying. Worry is not preparation. Analyze the situation and focus on solutions. There is always an answer."

Wally Amos, founder of Famous Amos Chocolate Chip cookies and the 1989 winner of the Napoleon Hill Gold Medal for Entrepreneurial Achievement, has this to say about (on the cover of) a new edition of "Think and Grow Rich" entitled "Think and Grow Rich!--The Original Version, Restored and Revised": "I thought 'Think and Grow Rich!' was a classic and could never be improved. I was wrong. I am sure Dr. Hill would be greatly pleased to see how his work has been honored and enhanced by this outstanding new edition." I found out about the book on its website -- www.tgr-restored-revised.com.
