This document is an excerpt of the very beginning of the book entitled Self Help and written by Samuel Smiles in 1859. Samuel Smiles was born in a family of a papermaker and shopkeeper, he had a medical degree, and worked as a journalist in Leeds, and then in the railroad industry. He wrote many works and achieved his worldwide fame through books on morality and personal behaviour. He published Self Help in 1859, the same year Darwin published Origin of the Species.
