Getting Rich Is An Exact Science

By Antje Govers


This is the second in a series of articles based on the teachings found in the success classic "The Science of Getting Rich", written in 1910 by Wallace D. Wattles. This book-now in the public domain--is essential reading for anyone who wants to become wealthy.In the second chapter of "The Science of Getting Rich", Mr. Wattles explains that getting rich is a science; in fact, it's an exact science, like mathematics. That is, there's a series of principles or laws that govern the process of acquiring wealth, and once these are learned and systematically applied by anyone, that person will get rich.

A month ago, I was listening to an audio tape from the legendary Earl Nightingale and he was talking about what he termed "The Strangest Secret." The secret, of course, is to believe and succeed. In this tape he challenged his listeners to conduct a test for the next 30 days which I tried and now pass on to you.For the next 30 days take an index card which you can keep with you at all times; so that you can review it whenever you need.

"If getting rich is the result of doing things in a certain way, and if like causes always produce like effects, then any man or woman who can do things in that way can become rich, and the whole matter is brought within the domain of exact science." People tend to think that the following are the causes of getting rich:The environment in which you're currently working or have set up your business. That is, the neighborhood, town, city, state, or country in which you currently work.How much talent you have or how smart you are.Choosing a particular business or profession.Doing things others fail to do.Having easy access to capital.

"Give advancement to everybody. Beware of the insidious temptation to seek power over other people." "Keep your FAITH, hold to your PURPOSE, have GRATITUDE, and DO -- every day -- all that can be done that day, doing each separate act in a SUCCESSFUL manner."I can continue writing more and more about this book, but I'm inviting you to read it. As you may have noticed, this book is about the Law of Attraction - most of the people who talk about the LOA have used it to develop their own books.

Have complete control of your thoughts. Think true regardless of appearances. It doesn't matter what happens around you, if you are creating your own thoughts and beliefs, have faith that everything is good. There are only good things for you in the universe. When you have a thought, you create a powerful image in your mind. That thought/image creates a feeling and an emotion. If you send out negative vibes, you get negative results. If you send out positive vibes you get positive results.

The Law of Attraction (sometimes known as the Law of Vibration) and its relationship to wealth was documented by Wallace D. Wattles in the early 1900s in a book entitled, "The Science of Getting Rich." Wattles put forth the notion that, "The ownership of money and property comes as a result of doing things in a certain way; those who do things in a certain way, whether on purpose or accidentally, get rich; while those who do not do things in this certain way, no matter how hard they work or how able they are, remain poor."

A very clear example of a person who thought, had a purpose, believed, took action and his dream came true is: The miracle of Chinese Bamboo. You are the one in control of your thoughts. You control what comes into your life. Everything starts with a thought, word, with a dream. As I always say, YOU can create miracles in your life! What are you waiting for?

Getting rich is a dream that most of us cherish and wish that it comes true. Just dreaming of getting rich is not good enough. There needs to be a certain endeavor from our end towards the goal that we have set for ourselves. One fact is for sure that one needs to be alert, smart and enterprising to earn the money and get rich. There have been plenty of books and guides that have been published over the years to help us achieve our dreams.

Wallace Wattles, author of "The Science of Getting Rich", says the first principle is thought. Thinking activates the "Formless Stuff" of the universe, to deliver the thought. Like exercise to the body, every thought contributes to the manifestation of the intended results. Also like exercise, results may not become apparent after the first attempt.Persistence is required to manifest thoughts. Faith during the appearance of failure is absolutely necessary. The action required to manifest results is impotent without absolute belief in efficacy of the process.

One of the most important principals that I strongly believe in and recommend is simple 'smart hard work'. Put in your heart and soul into wherever your talent and passion lies, smartly and the result will definitely be positive. Have faith in your self, have patience and persistence along with tremendous faith in God. Things are sure to fall into place.Do remember to be grateful to every one around you who have helped you achieve your goals of getting rich. Gratitude is another key word in moving towards your goal. Do remember to be grateful to your elders and most importantly to God.There are plenty of choices on your way to getting rich. But only you can choose the right one and follow your dreams of getting rich.
