* ############################################################################## | |
* | |
* This code represents the core principles of "Think and Grow Rich" by Napoleon Hill, | |
* expressed through TypeScript analogies. It is intended to provide a deeper, | |
* more practical understanding of the book's concepts by relating them to familiar | |
* programming patterns. | |
* | |
* Each principle is presented as a distinct function or class, along with examples | |
* and explanations. The code is heavily commented to clarify the connections between | |
* the TypeScript representations and the original text. Remember, the purpose is not | |
* to teach TypeScript, but to use it as a tool for understanding "Think and Grow Rich". | |
