In 1910 a rather strange man named Wallace D. Wattles wrote what has become a classic success book: The Science of Getting Rich. This book while always getting a little attention through the years has become hugely popular again since the release of The Secret movie. Rhonda Byrne, the creator of the movie has said that The Science of Getting Rich was a major factor in the movie.
The Science of Getting Rich doesn’t use the words: “law of attraction” anywhere in it – yet in reading the book it is unmistakable that the law of attraction is what it is all about. Hold the vision of the thing you want in the invisible thinking substance that makes up the universe. Profound for 1910, today people discussing the law begin to talk about Physics and discoveries in quantum mechanics. We were perhaps better off with the simpler language which is part of the charm of Wattles book.
Hold the vision, see the vision and step into it, experience it. At some point you will learn what to do and you must act. Wattles says: “By thought, the thing you want is brought to you. By action, you receive it.” A lot of people leave out the discussion of the action part when talking about the law of attraction. It is nice to think that all you have to do is dream, and your dreams will see reality. The idea of action says you might have to work at it a little bit too.
Yet it is this very “action” that activates the law of attraction and this is a key part of what wattles focuses on in The Science of Getting Rich. It’s all there in that book, laying in the open, and not “Secret” since 1910. On the previously linked website you will find not only a free E-book but also a free audio book of The Science of Getting Rich. We believe it is one of the best presentations of the book available on the web.
