The Science of Getting Rich

الوصف

As featured in the bestselling book The Secret, here is the landmark guide to wealth creation republished with the classic essay “How to Get What You Want.” Wallace D. Wattles spent a lifetime considering the laws of success as he found them in the work of the world’s great philosophers. He then turned his life effort into this simple, slender book – a volume that he vowed could replace libraries of philosophy, spirituality, and self-help for the purpose of attaining one definite goal: a life of prosperity. Wattles describes a definite science of wealth attraction, built on the foundation of one commanding idea: “There is a thinking stuff from which all things are made…A thought, in this substance, produces the thing that is imaged by the thought.” In his seventeen short, straight-to-the-point chapters, Wattles shows how to use this idea, how to overcome barriers to its application, and how work with very direct methods that awaken it in your life. He further explains how creation and not competition is the hidden key to wealth attraction, and how your power to get rich uplifts everyone around you. The Science of Getting Rich concludes with Wattle’s rare essay “How to Get Want You Want” – a brilliant refresher of his laws of wealth creation.
“The Science of Getting Rich” is a book written by Wallace D. Wattles and published in 1910. It is a classic in the self-help and personal development genres, focusing on principles of abundance, wealth creation, and success mindset. Here’s a brief overview:

Principles of Wealth: The central premise of the book is that there is a science to getting rich, and it is accessible to anyone who understands and applies its principles. Wattles argues that becoming wealthy is not the result of luck or chance but rather the predictable outcome of following certain laws and principles.

The Power of Thought: Like many other self-help classics, “The Science of Getting Rich” emphasizes the power of thought in shaping one’s reality. Wattles asserts that thoughts are things and that by holding a clear mental image of one’s desires and acting in a certain way, individuals can attract wealth and abundance into their lives.

Creative Visualization: A key concept in the book is the idea of creative visualization. Wattles teaches that by vividly imagining one’s goals as already accomplished and holding onto that vision with unwavering faith, individuals can activate the creative forces of the universe to bring their desires into reality.

Gratitude and Action: While visualization is important, Wattles also emphasizes the importance of taking action and remaining in a state of gratitude. He suggests that by taking proactive steps toward their goals and expressing gratitude for what they already have, individuals align themselves with the flow of abundance in the universe.

Positive Relationship with Money: Contrary to some prevailing beliefs about money, Wattles advocates for a positive relationship with wealth and emphasizes that becoming rich is not only desirable but also a moral obligation. He argues that by becoming wealthy, individuals can better serve themselves and others.

“The Science of Getting Rich” has had a significant impact on the self-help movement and has influenced many other personal development authors and speakers. Its straightforward and practical approach to wealth creation continues to resonate with readers seeking financial abundance and personal fulfillment. Despite being over a century old, the book’s principles remain relevant and applicable in today’s world.
