Description

The step-by-step scientific approach to attracting financial and spiritual wealth * This is the 100-year-old book that inspired Rhonda Byrne's bestselling The Secret * Explains the precise series of practical steps that, if followed, guarantee prosperity * Reveals the secrets that underlie today's success and prosperity movements In his bestselling book, Wallace D. Wattles explains that "universal mind" underlies and permeates all creation. Through the process of visualization we can engage the law of attraction--impressing our thoughts upon "formless substance" and bringing the desired object or circumstances into material form. The author emphasizes the critical importance of attitude: only by aligning ourselves with the positive forces of natural law can we gain unlimited access to the creative mind and its abundant rewards. The Science of Getting Rich holds the secret to how economic and emotional security can be achieved in a practical, imaginative, and noncompetitive way, while maintaining a loving and harmonious relationship with all of life. By living in accordance with the positive principles outlined in this book, we can find our rightful place in the cosmic scheme and create for ourselves an environment in which to grow in wealth, wisdom, and happiness. Rhonda Byrne, in her book and DVD, The Secret, tells how a 100-year-old book entered her life and changed it forever. Here is that book. Written in 1910, The Science of Getting Rich inspired Byrne to create her bestselling DVD, and subsequently, to write her book. She has said that it "gave me a glimpse of The Secret. It was like a flame inside of my heart. And with every day since, it's just become a raging fire of wanting to share all of this with the world." "There is a science of getting rich. It is an exact science, like algebra or arithmetic. There are certain laws which govern the process of acquiring riches. Once a person learns and obeys these laws, he will get rich with mathematical certainty." --Wallace D. Wattles, The Science of Getting Rich

Reviews

"Wattles offers techniques for getting in tune with one's deeper self and thus creating a channel of communication between oneself and universal energy. His is a gentle philosophy that excludes competition, cheating, and lording it over one's fellows when one has made it, and encourages cooperation." * Publisher's Weekly * "If you watched The Secret and wondered what the little book was that changed author Rhonda Byrne's life, this is it. Originally published in 1910, its time has come." * Rahasya Poe, Lotus Guide magazine, Sep/Oct 2007 * "Perhaps the most important thing that separates Wattles' success strategy from many other systems is his emphasis on spiritual philosophy rather than self interest." * Anna Jedrziewski, New Age Retailer, March 2009 * ". . . Wattles identified financial success as the critical element, and first priority, in creating an environment in which one could grow in wealth, wisdom, and happiness. . . . the foundation of today's widespread success and prosperity movements." * Joint Forces Journal, July 2009 *
