The Science of Getting Rich

There are certain laws that govern the process of getting rich. In this book, Wallace Wattles presents the path to understanding and putting them into practice. One hundred years after being introduced to readers, the principles outlined in The Science of Getting Rich remain valid and served as inspiration for Rhonda Byrne's The Secret .

Wattles presents some laws that govern the step-by-step process of achieving wealth. Once understood and obeyed, these laws lead one to wealth with mathematical precision. To achieve this, one must learn to think correctly. To have an idea of what one wants, without vague or nebulous concepts. A generalized desire to be rich is not enough to be effective. It's important to know what one wants and be clear and precise. But one cannot rely solely on thought without organizing oneself to act. Combining thought with action is essential.

If you follow the steps outlined in The Science of Getting Rich , always seeking to understand and objectively monitor your actions, you will certainly become rich, and the wealth you receive will be in exact proportion to the clarity of your vision, the firmness of your purpose, the depth of your faith, and the depth of your gratitude. This is more than a necessary book; it is an extremely timely one.

"This is a pragmatic, not a philosophical, book; a practical manual, not a theoretical treatise. It is intended for men and women whose most pressing need is to make money; for those who want to get rich first and philosophize later. And for those who have not yet found the time, means, or opportunity for deep metaphysical studies, but who desire results and are willing to accept the conclusions of science as a basis for action, without needing to know the processes by which those conclusions were reached."
