Discovering The Science Of Getting Rich

By Ollie M. Buhr


I first found out about "The Science of Getting Rich" by Wallace D. Wattles a few years ago. I downloaded this almost 100 year old classic in pdf format, and read it in one sitting. It is less than 100 pages and is easy reading, so this was certainly no task.Shortly after reading this short classic, the movie "The Secret" was released on dvd. "The Secret" of course, went into depth about the Law of Attraction and how what you think about, is what you bring into your life. Interestingly enough, it took me a few months to realize the relationship.
[The 11 forgotten laws]


It is but natural that the same causes would logically generate the same effects. The same is also true among men and women who would act in certain ways. Learning to act in certain ways would absolutely make each man and woman to get rich.The science of getting rich would tell us that environment has nothing to do with getting rich. Because if it that would be the case, then we would not be seeing poor and rich families living in the same village or area nowadays. The truth is that we see rich and poor families living side by side in the same environment and most interestingly, with the same vocation. Let us say, two men are living in the same locality and that both are engaged in the same business.However, only of them gets rich while the other one remains poor. Despite the similarities in their environment and their nature of job, they still end up differently in terms of their economic condition. This only shows that getting rich is not a matter of environment. We cannot deny the fact that some environments are more favorable than others. But again, if we are to analyze the given scenario, then we would come up with a conclusion that to get rich is the result of doing things in certain ways.

So what's it all about? In his book, Mr. Wattles discusses topics such as your right to be rich, gratitude, the importance of thinking in what he terms a "certain way". He then follows this with his observations about acting in a "certain way", and taking efficient action. He also discusses how the advancing person is not in competition with others at all, but is in a creative mode, and understands they are here to create whatever it is that they want, through thinking and acting in a "certain way".This 1910 classic is a tremendous read. You can actually go online and download free it at your leisure. Think of it in these terms, to paraphrase Jim Rhon, the principals of success don't change over time. What Mr. Wattles teaches in "The Science of Getting Rich" has proven to be successful through many generations. If we go back before Wallace Wattles' time, those principals, I'm certain, were the cornerstones of success for centuries prior to the writing.

Look at your current skill set and the things you are passionate about in life. These are great clues to help you understand what you can do to become rich.What can you do to be of service to people? How can you make a positive difference in the world? What could you do to make you feel you deserve to be rich?Once you can pinpoint this you can start to move towards setting things in place to work towards creating true riches in your life.Notice I say "true riches" here ~ when you are doing something you love and helping others the money will come naturally this is the true meaning of being rich in life.

I speak from personal experience here ~ after 14 years in the corporate world I followed my dreams and started my own personal development business. For me being in service, helping others and making a positive difference around the world gives me the true riches in life. The fact that I am creating financial freedom from doing this is just a wonderful bonus:). I think it is about time that we were totally honest with ourselves regards learning all the stuff that is available to make us rich, make us happy, make us more aware how to use the Law of Attraction etc. It seems we follow the really successful gurus who have made these teachings work for them and have had meteoric success from day one. Now although this is good sales publicity, it is not what happens for 99% of the people who try to learn.We can also get sucked into following someone who has read a book and has the flair to create adverts and sales product to entice us into there fantastic new fail proof method.

Regardless of your profession, if you increase the life of others, you will become rich.One of the examples Wattles uses is of doctors. The doctor who sets out to cure disease will certainly become rich. Doctors seldom cure the illness, just as often they tend to make it worse. By following the principles of the Science of Getting Rich, doctors cure their patients. This will make them attractive to those who truly want healing.

Because there is no understanding of this scenario the person trying to learn gives up. It is no good telling them that they have fallen off because they did not follow the system correctly or that they did not understand the teachings.I think that all the multimillionaire proponents of these teachings are fantastic and most of them, although money driven, do actually have the knowledge of how powerful these laws are.One thing is for sure though, mere mortals WILL FALL OFF THE HORSE and unless the person guiding you has fallen off and got back on many times, how will they assist you to get back on.

If you focus on sin, you only get more sin. Ministers need to teach what Jesus was trying to tell us: that the truth would set us free. Jesus said his "yoke was easy, and his burden was light." By applying this truth to our lives, it allows us to get out from underneath all of the lies and misinformation that is often dispensed.Don't forgive, take revenge, or impose your will on others to get what you want. These are all lies we've suffered from, and they've only created more misery and pain for everyone.Do your work every day and do it in a successful manner.Again, it's about focus. If you're not focused on taking those steps that will help you become a success, and you're not doing those things that will help you become a success, you won't succeed.If you are in business for yourself, ask yourself every day: "Is the task I am about to do going to contribute to the overall success of my business?" If the answer is no, then you're wasting your time.

Every time you falter and then get back on track, will give you the strength to keep going. Each time you get started again gives you a greater understanding and each time you will not fall as far.The purpose of this article is to let you know that you are normal if you do find these teachings difficult to learn and apply, and to make sure that you find someone to help you that has had experience in coping with the problems encountered on the journey to understanding.Let me tell you that these teachings are really powerful, they do work but it does take time to learn and understand them.

I have rewritten the Science Of Getting Rich by Wallace Wattles in Plain English and I would like you to have a copy free of charge, because the information contained in this book can change your life.Every word in the book I have proved to be true and if you just follow the explicit instructions to the letter, you will attain Wealth and Happiness.Just remember, you will fall off the horse and that is what happens to normal everyday people.Bob Proctor is one of the greatest exponents of these teachings and has been doing this for 40 years yet out of the many thousands of people he has taught only a handful have really gone on to mega success.Take heart from this. The fact that there have been successes proves the teachings work, the fact there are so few huge successes means that it requires a bit of commitment. What Bob has produced in abundance however is loads of people that have changed their lives for the better, but have just not had that extra little bit of belief and energy to get over the hill.So if you want to change your life and are prepared to do the things stated in SOGR you will experience an amazing transformation, be warned though you will experience times when you want to give up and it is those people that work through these barriers with faith and belief, who will make these teachings work for them in extraordinary ways.
