The Science of Getting Rich (Deluxe Library Edition)

Beschreibung

The Science of Getting Rich explains how to overcome mental barriers, and how creation, rather than competition, is the hidden key to wealth attraction. The book is divided into 17 short, straight-to-the-point chapters that are focused on business prosperity, mind training, and success in the material world. Through positivity and self-affirmation, the individual is empowered to attract what they want out of life. Wallace Wattles descended from the mental healing movement in the mid-19th century. Through his personal study and experimentation Wattles claimed to have discovered the truth of New Thought principles and put them into practice in his own life. He practiced the technique of creative visualization, forming a visual image, and then working towards the realization of this vision. The Science of Getting Rich was credited by Rhonda Byrne as one of the inspirations for her popular 2006 film and 2007 book The Secret.

Autor

Wallace Delois Wattles was an American who wrote about New Thought. He lived from 1860 to 1911. He isn't very well known as a person, but his writing is still used in the New Thought and self-help groups and is still in print. Wattles's most well-known work is a book he wrote in 1910 called The Science of Getting Rich. In it, he talks about how to get rich. Florence wrote that in the three years before he died, "he made a lot of money and was healthy, except that he was very weak." Wattles died in Ruskin, Tennessee, on February 7, 1911. His body was taken home to be buried in Elwood, Indiana. As a sign of respect, all of the companies in the town closed for two hours in the afternoon of the day of his funeral. His daughter thought it was "untimely" that he died at age 51, because in the year before, he had written two books (The Science of Being Well and The Science of Getting Rich) and ran for public office.
