			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>How To Achieve The Best Results With Affirmations</strong></p>
<p>What did you do the last time you thought you had a bad habit? Nothing much, right? Perhaps just told yourself that you can’t continue like this. But telling yourself once can’t really fetch desired results. Repetitively uttering resolutions, instead, does the trick. So how do you go about it? Write down your resolution somewhere and go over it as many times as possible.</p>
<p>Repeating these affirmations day in day out ultimately makes you believe in them. Nowadays, affirmations are so popular that you can even buy them in the form of CD’s and cassettes. It’s great if you, too, want readymade affirmations for yourself. But it’s always better to create your own affirmations (since no one else understands your emotional needs better).</p>
<p>So what exactly should you remember while making your own affirmations? Go through the checklist below and find out-</p>
<p>1.    The first thing that you need to remember is the final purpose of your affirmation. Any affirmation, no matter what purpose it is taken for, should make a person behave positively. For the same reason, the tone of your affirmation should not be negative. Do not use ‘do not’ in your affirmation even if it sounds perfectly correct. Instead, give your affirmation a positive tone. Consider this example- you have a habit of smoking and you create an affirmation that reads- ‘I don’t smoke cigarettes.’ Though the affirmation sounds grammatically right, your mind may take it otherwise. For some odd reason your mind might get stuck to the words ‘smoke cigarettes’ in isolation and you’ll fail to achieve positive results. So your affirmation should read something like this- ‘I should take care of my heart and lungs. Smoking won’t help’.</p>
<p>2.    Next in line is how you make your mind take to the affirmation you have created. Perhaps your affirmation says ‘What I do now will affect my future’. If you actually want to believe in this you have to read it innumerable times. Remember, the biggest secret of making your affirmation work is repetition. But then repetition is not all. So what more do you need? You need to empower your mind so that it can linger over the true meaning of each word. The very first instance you can make your mind linger on ‘I’. Look within and decide whether what you’re doing will nurture your future or not. The very next instant you can focus on how your present actions can actually mould your life in future. Lastly, ask yourself how you’d like to see yourself in future. Repeating your affirmation singularly will not be as beneficial as when you combine that with inflection.</p>
<p>3.    Thirdly and lastly, don’t pressurize yourself too much all at once. Going through an affirmation might seem to be the easiest thing but incorporating it can be really difficult. And this is precisely why you should not aim to improve a number of habits at a single instance- lose weight, improve punctuality, work harder etc. Remember the old saying ‘take one step at a time’ and move ahead to make a success of your affirmation.</p>
<p>Believe in you affirmations- Make them work<br />
<span id="more-1344"></span><br />
At every point in life you’ve met with someone or the other who has encouraged you. In school it would be your parents, at work it is your colleague and at home it is your partner. But the question is why do you need others to encourage you? Why don’t you, yourself devise ways to increase your faith in yourself?</p>
<p>Improving self- belief and confidence is not an uphill task anymore- all you need to do is create your own affirmations or get them from your neighborhood CD shop. So what exactly are affirmations? They are the words of encouragement that you utter to you own being.</p>
<p>But the concept of affirmations goes deeper than this. When you write an affirmation and say it what you’re actually doing is making your spirit believe in something better, something that you have not been able to incorporate in your own life till date. People plagued by bad habits are the most frequent affirmation users. These people want to get rid of their habits and want to believe in something more idealistic.</p>
<p>Consider the example of a smoker who badly wants to give up the habit but does not know how to go about it. If he writes an affirmation stating ‘Smoking kills. I will quit the habit’ and goes through it as regularly as possible after a while he’ll start believing in it. The appeal to his subconscious mind will work and in due course of time he will quit. That is the power affirmations have.</p>
<p>So what do you need to make your affirmation work?</p>
<p>1.    State of mind- When you are thinking of practicing an affirmation you need to consider your own state of mind. This is a factor that can make or break the power of an affirmation. To make an affirmation effective, you need to have a relaxed state of mind. When the mind relaxes, the state of consciousness interrupts lesser and the subconscious mind is ready to absorb more.</p>
<p>2.    Face yourself- Creating your own affirmation is not the end of all problems. You need to face yourself if you want to practise your affirmation effectively. Once you know you are able to face your own problems, you’ll understand you’re ready to incorporate the goodness of the affirmation. To make the affirmation work, stand before the mirror and repeat the affirmation time and again.</p>
<p>3.    Do not suppress your voice- When you are uttering your affirmation you need to imagine that it is bringing about positive results. If you are practicing your affirmation in a loud voice, it is easier for you to imagine the affirmation overpowering your bad habit. It is precisely for this reason that you must practice your affirmation in an isolated place.</p>
<p>4.    Choose the right time- Practice your affirmations regularly but practice them at times when the mind is not clouded. In fact, the best time to practice affirmations is early in the morning and late at night. Just after waking up from sleep and before going off to sleep the subconscious mind remains active and receptive.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Attitude makes all the difference by Zig Ziglar.</p>
<p>I love Zig Ziglar and everything he stands for. This video about attitude and how it makes all the difference to your life is really funny.</p>
<p>He makes a great point about most people not wanting to solve their problems. I remember doing my best to provide solutions for a friend who was constantly complaining about the fact that she couldn&#8217;t get out of the house because she was a single mom.  She insisted on telling me that if it wasn&#8217;t for the fact that she was a single mother she would be out networking and really building her business.</p>
<p>Nothing I said helped her and I realized it was better not to say anything because she actually didn&#8217;t want my help, she just wanted to be able to moan about how unfair her life was raising children on her own.  All she really wanted was the attention that telling her story was able to give her.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Are you looking for the attention that goes with your problems or are you truly ready to slove it?</strong></p>
<p>It is easy to know the answer to that question because if all you want is continued attention you will do nothing but complain and never make any effort to change the way that thins are.</p>
<p>In the video I love when Zig Ziglar said <em><strong>&#8220;people who are the problem never recognise that they are&#8221;</strong></em></p>
<p>My friend never recognized that it was her talking about the problem that made it a problem! She had family to look after her children, she could even afford to pay for a baby sitter if she wanted to do that but she choose not to and just continued to make her children the problem.</p>
<p>In the video Zig Ziglar provides a great exercise that will help you change the way you feel about your particular problem.  He talks specifically about a woman who does not like her job and the people she works with but you can change the phrase  &#8220;I love my job because&#8230;.&#8221; and instead say &#8220;I love myself because&#8230;.&#8221; and read out your list while standing in front of the mirror or you can say &#8220;I love my life because&#8230;&#8230;&#8221;</p>
<p>Stinking thinking will kill your life but gratitude will always enlighten it <img src='http://inspirationalguidance.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>I had an audio on attitude too so I have added that below.</p>

He makes a great point about most people not wanting to solve their problems. I remember doing my best to provide solutions for a friend who was constantly complaining about the fact that she couldn't get out of the house because she was a single mom.nbsp; She insisted on telling me that if it wasn't for the fact that she was a single mother she would be out networking and really building her business.

Nothing I said helped her and I realized it was better not to say anything because she actually didn't want my help, she just wanted to be able to moan about how unfair her life was raising children on her own.nbsp; All she really wanted was the attention that telling her story was able to give her.
Are you looking for the attention that goes with your problems or are you truly ready to slove it?

It is easy to know the answer to that question because if all you want is continued attention you will do nothing but complain and never make any effort to change the way that thins are.

<p><span id="more-1072"></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">A thought in this substance produces the thing that is imaged by the thought. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">A person can form things in his thought, and by impressing his thought upon formless substance can cause the thing he thinks about to be created. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">In order to do this, a person must pass from the competitive to the creative mind. Otherwise he cannot be in harmony with formless intelligence, which is always creative and never competitive in spirit. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">A person may come into full harmony with the formless substance by entertaining a lively and sincere gratitude for the blessings it bestows upon him. Gratitude unifies the mind of man with the intelligence of substance, so that man’s thoughts are received by the formless. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">A person can remain upon the creative plane only by uniting himself with the formless intelligence through a deep and continuous feeling of gratitude. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">A person must form a clear and definite mental image of the things he wishes to have, to do, or to become, and he must hold this mental image in his thoughts, while being deeply grateful to the supreme that all his desires are granted to him. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">The person who wishes to get rich must spend his leisure hours in contemplating his vision, and in earnest thanksgiving that the reality is being given to him. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">Too much stress cannot be laid on the importance of frequent contemplation of the mental image, coupled with unwavering faith and devout gratitude. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB"><strong>This is the process by which the impression is given to the formless and the creative forces set in motion.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">The creative energy works through the established channels of natural growth, and of the industrial and social order. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">All that is included in his mental image will surely be brought to the person who follows the instructions given above, and whose faith does not waver. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">What he wants will come to him through the ways of established trade and commerce. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">In order to receive his own when it is ready to come to him, a person must be in action in a way that causes him to more than fill his present place. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">He must keep in mind the purpose to get rich through realization of his mental image. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">And he must do, every day, all that can be done that day, taking care to do each act in a successful manner. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">He must give to every person a use value in excess of the cash value he receives, so that each transaction makes for more life, and he must hold the advancing thought so that the impression of increase will be communicated to all with whom he comes into contact. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">The men and women who practice the foregoing instructions will certainly get rich, and the riches they receive will be in exact proportion to the definiteness of their vision, the fixity of their purpose, the steadiness of their faith, and the depth of their gratitude.</span></p>

		<itunes:summary>The Science of Getting Rich by Wallace D Wattles
CHAPTER 17 A Summary of The Science of Getting Rich 
THERE IS A THINKING STUFF FROM WHICH ALL THINGS ARE MADE, and which, in its original state, permeates, penetrates, and fills the interspaces of the universe. 
A thought in this substance produces the thing that is imaged by the thought. 
A person can form things in his thought, and by impressing his thought upon formless substance can cause the thing he thinks about to be created. 
In order to do this, a person must pass from the competitive to the creative mind. Otherwise he cannot be in harmony with formless intelligence, which is always creative and never competitive in spirit. 
A person may come into full harmony with the formless substance by entertaining a lively and sincere gratitude for the blessings it bestows upon him. Gratitude unifies the mind of man with the intelligence of substance, so that manrsquo;s thoughts are received by the formless. 
A person can remain upon the creative plane only by uniting himself with the formless intelligence through a deep and continuous feeling of gratitude. 
A person must form a clear and definite mental image of the things he wishes to have, to do, or to become, and he must hold this mental image in his thoughts, while being deeply grateful to the supreme that all his desires are granted to him. 
The person who wishes to get rich must spend his leisure hours in contemplating his vision, and in earnest thanksgiving that the reality is being given to him. 
Too much stress cannot be laid on the importance of frequent contemplation of the mental image, coupled with unwavering faith and devout gratitude. 
This is the process by which the impression is given to the formless and the creative forces set in motion. 
The creative energy works through the established channels of natural growth, and of the industrial and social order. 
All that is included in his mental image will surely be brought to the person who follows the instructions given above, and whose faith does not waver. 
What he wants will come to him through the ways of established trade and commerce. 
In order to receive his own when it is ready to come to him, a person must be in action in a way that causes him to more than fill his present place. 
He must keep in mind the purpose to get rich through realization of his mental image. 
And he must do, every day, all that can be done that day, taking care to do each act in a successful manner. 
He must give to every person a use value in excess of the cash value he receives, so that each transaction makes for more life, and he must hold the advancing thought so that the impression of increase will be communicated to all with whom he comes into contact. 
The men and women who practice the foregoing instructions will certainly get rich, and the riches they receive will be in exact proportion to the definiteness of their vision, the fixity of their purpose, the steadiness of their faith, and the depth of their gratitude.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">Give no anxious thought to possible disasters, obstacles, panics, or unfavourable combinations of circumstances. There is time enough to meet such things when they present themselves before you in the immediate present, and you will find that every difficulty carries with it the wherewithal for its overcoming. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><strong><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">Guard your speech. Never speak of yourself, your affairs, or of anything else in a discouraged or discouraging way. Never admit the possibility of failure or speak in a way that infers failure as a possibility. </span></strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><strong><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">Never speak of the times as being hard or of business conditions as being doubtful.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">When others are having hard times and poor business, you will find your greatest opportunities. Train yourself to think of and to look upon the world as a something which is becoming, which is growing, and to regard seeming evil as being only that which is undeveloped. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><strong><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">Always speak in terms of advancement. </span></strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">To do otherwise is to deny your faith, and to deny your faith is to lose it. Never allow yourself to feel disappointed. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><strong><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">You may expect to have a certain thing at a certain time and not get it at that time, and this will appear to you like failure. </span></strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><strong><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">But if you hold to your faith you will find that the failure is only apparent. Go on in the certain way, and if you do not receive that thing, you will receive something so much better that you will see that the seeming failure was really a great success. </span></strong><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">A student of this science had set his mind on making a certain business combination that seemed to him at the time to be very desirable, and he worked for some weeks to bring it about. When the crucial time came, the thing failed in a perfectly inexplicable way. It was as if some unseen influence had been working secretly against him. But he was not disappointed. On the contrary, he thanked God that his desire had been overruled, and went steadily on with a grateful mind.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB"> In a few weeks an opportunity so much better came his way that he would not have made the first deal on any account, and he saw that a mind which knew more than he knew had prevented him from losing the greater good by entangling himself with the lesser. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><strong><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">That is the way every seeming failure will work out for you, if you 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. </span></strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><strong><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">When you make a failure, it is because you have not asked for enough. Keep on, and a larger thing than you were seeking will certainly come to you. Remember this. You will not fail because you lack the necessary talent to do what you wish to do. If you go on as I have directed, you will develop all the talent that is</span></strong><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB"> <strong>necessary to the doing of your work.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">It is not within the scope of this book to deal with the science of cultivating talent, but it is as certain and simple as the process of getting rich. However, do not hesitate or waver for fear that when you come to any certain place you will fail for lack of ability. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">Keep right on, and when you come to that place, the ability will be furnished to you. The same source of ability that enabled the untaughtLincoln</span></p>
<p>to do the greatest work in government ever accomplished by a single man is open to you.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">You may draw upon all the mind there is for wisdom to use in meeting the responsibilities which are laid upon you. Go on in full faith. Study this book. Make it your constant companion until you have mastered all the ideas contained in it. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">While you are getting firmly established in this faith, you will do well to give up most recreations and pleasure and to stay away from places where ideas conflicting with these are advanced in lectures or sermons. </span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">Do not read pessimistic or conflicting literature or get into arguments upon the matter. Spend most of your leisure time in contemplating your vision, in cultivating gratitude, and in reading this book. It contains all you need to know of the science of getting rich, and you will find all the essentials summed up in the following chapter.</span></strong></p>

CHAPTER 16 Some Cautions and Concluding Observations 
MANY PEOPLE WILL SCOFF AT THE IDEA that there is an exact science of getting rich. 
 Holding the impression that the supply of wealth is limited, they will insist that social and governmental institutions must be changed before even any considerable number of people can acquire a competence. 
But this is not true. It is true that existing governments keep the masses in poverty, but this is because the masses do not think and act in the certain way. 
If the masses begin to move forward as suggested in this book, neither governments nor industrial systems can check them; all systems must be modified to accommodate the forward movement. 
If the people have the advancing mind, have the faith that they can become rich, and move forward with the fixed purpose to become rich, nothing can possibly keep them in poverty. 
Individuals may enter upon the certain way at any time and under any government and make themselves rich. 
And when any considerable number of individuals does so under any government, they will cause the system to be so modified as to open the way for others. The more people who get rich on the competitive plane, the worse for others. 
The more who get rich on the creative plane, the better for others. 
The economic salvation of the masses can only be accomplished by getting a large number of people to practice the scientific method set down in this book and become rich. 
These will show others the way and inspire them with a desire for real life, with the faith that it can be attained, and with the purpose to attain it.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">There are very many people who, consciously or unconsciously, set the creative forces in action by the strength and persistence of their desires, but who remain poor because they do not provide for the reception of the thing they want when it comes. </span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">Because you are not in the right business or the right environment now, do not think that you must postpone action until you get into the right business or environment. And do not spend time in the present taking thought as to the best course in possible future emergencies; have faith in your ability to meet any emergency when it arrives.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><strong><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">If you act in the present with your mind on the future, your present action will be with a divided mind, and will not be effective. Put your whole mind into present action. </span></strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><strong><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">Do not give your creative impulse to original substance, and then sit down and wait for results. If you do, you will never get them. Act now. There is never any time but now, and there never will be any time but now. </span></strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><strong><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">If you are ever to begin to make ready for the reception of what you want, you must begin NOW. And your action, whatever it is, must most likely be in your present business or employment, and must be upon the persons and things in your present environment.</span></strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">You cannot act where you are not, you cannot act where you have been, and you cannot act where you are going to be.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">Do not bother as to whether yesterday’s work was well done or ill done; do today’s work well. Do not try to do tomorrow’s work now; there will be plenty of time to do that when you get to it. Do not try, by occult or mystical means, to act on people or things that are out of your reach. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><strong><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">Do not wait for a change of environment, before you act; get a change of environment by action. You can so act upon the environment in which you are now, as to cause yourself to be transferred to a better environment.</span></strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><strong><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">Hold with faith and purpose the vision of yourself in the better environment, but act upon your present environment with all your heart, and with all your strength, and with all your mind</span></strong><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">Do not spend any time in daydreaming or castle building; hold to the one vision of what you want, and act NOW. Do not cast about, seeking some new thing to do or some strange, unusual, or remarkable action to perform as a first step toward getting rich. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">It is probable that your actions, at least for some time to come, will be the same ones you have been performing for some time past, but you are to begin now to perform these actions in the certain way, which will surely make you rich. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">If you are engaged in some business, and feel that it is not the right one for you, do not wait until you get into the right business before you begin to act. Do not feel discouraged or sit down and lament because you are misplaced. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">No one is so misplaced that he cannot find the right place, and no one is so involved in the wrong business that he cannot get into the right business. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><strong><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">Hold the vision of yourself in the right business, with the purpose to get into it and the faith that you will get into it and are getting into it, but ACT in your present business. Use your present business as the means of getting a better one, and use your present environment as the means of getting into a better one.</span></strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><strong><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">Your vision of the right business, if held with faith and purpose, will cause the supreme power to move the right business toward you. And your action, if performed in the certain way, will cause you to move toward the business. </span></strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">If you are an employee or wage earner and feel that you must change places in order to get what you want, do not “project” your thought into space and rely upon it to get you another job. It will probably fail to do so. Hold the vision of yourself in the job you want while you ACT with faith and purpose on the job you have, and you will certainly get the job you want.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">Your vision and faith will set the creative force in motion to bring it toward you, and your action will cause the forces in your own environment to move you toward the place you want. </span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><strong><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">A thought in this substance produces the thing that is imaged by the thought. A person can form things in his thought, and, by impressing his thought upon formless substance, can cause the thing he thinks about to be created. In order to do this, a person must pass from the competitive to the creative mind; he must form a clear mental picture of the things he wants, and hold this picture in his thoughts with the fixed PURPOSE to get what he wants, and the unwavering FAITH that he does get what he wants, closing his mind to all that may tend to shake his purpose, dim his vision, or quench his faith. </span></strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><strong><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">So that he may receive what he wants when it comes, a person must act NOW upon the people and things in his present environment. </span></strong></p>

CHAPTER 11 Acting in The Certain Way 
THOUGHT IS THE CREATIVE POWER or the impelling force which causes the creative power to act. Thinking in a certain way will bring riches to you, but you must not rely upon thought alone, paying no attention to personal action. 
That is the rock upon which many otherwise scientific thinkers meet shipwreck mdash; the failure to connect thought with personal action.
We have not yet reached the stage of development, even supposing such a stage to be possible, in which a person can create directly from formless substance without naturersquo;s processes or the work of human hands. 
A person must not only think, but his personal action must supplement his thought. 
By thought you can cause the gold in the hearts of the mountains to be impelled toward you, but it will not mine itself, refine itself, coin itself into double eagles, and come rolling along the roads, seeking its way into your pocket. 
Under the impelling power of the supreme spirit, peoplersquo;s affairs will be so ordered that someone will be led to mine the gold for you. Other peoplersquo;s business transactions will be so directed that the gold will be brought toward you.
And you must so arrange your own business affairs that you may be able to receive it when it comes to you. Your thought makes all things, animate and inanimate, work to bring you what you want, but your personal activity must be such that you can rightly receive what you want when it reaches you. 
You are not to take it as charity, nor to steal it. You must give every man more in use value than he gives you in cash value. 
The scientific use of thought consists in forming a clear and distinct mental image of what you want, in holding fast to your purpose to get what you want, and in realizing with grateful faith that you do get what you want. 
Do not try to ldquo;projectrdquo; your thought in any mysterious or occult way, with the idea of having it go out and do things for you. That is wasted effort and will weaken your power to think with sanity. 
The action of thought in getting rich is fully explained in the preceding chapters: Your faith and purpose positively impress your vision upon formless substance, which has the same desire for more life that you have, and this vision, received from you, sets all the creative forces at work in and through their regular channels of action, but directed toward you. 
It is not your part to guide or supervise the creative process. All you have to do with that is to retain your vision, stick to your purpose, and maintain your faith and gratitude. 
But you must act in a certain way, so that you can appropriate what is yours when it comes to you and so that you can meet the things you have in your picture and put them in their proper places as they arrive. 
You can really see the truth of this. When things reach you, they will be in the hands of others, who will ask an equivalent for them. And you can only get what is yours by giving the other person what is rightfully his. 
Your pocketbook is not going to be transformed into a Fortunatarsquo;s purse, which shall be always full of money without effort on your part. This is the crucial point in the science of getting rich mdash; right here, where thought and personal action must be combined. 
There are very many people who, consciously or unconsciously, set the creative forces in action by the strength and persistence of their desires, but who remain poor because they do not provide for the reception of the thing they want when it comes. 
By thought, the thing you want is brought to you. By action, you receive it.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">You should interest yourself in the world’s becoming rich. Think of the riches the world is coming into instead of the poverty it is growing out of, and bear in mind that the only way in which you can assist the world in growing rich is by growing rich yourself through the creative method, not the competitive one. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">Give your attention wholly to riches.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">All that is possible in the way of greatness, of service and lofty endeavour, comes by way of getting rich, because all is made possible by the use of things. You can aim at nothing so great or noble, I repeat, as to become rich, and you must fix your attention upon your mental picture of wealth to the exclusion of all that may tend to dim or obscure the vision. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">Some people remain in poverty because they are ignorant of the fact that there is wealth for them, and these can best be taught by showing them the way to affluence in your own person and practice. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">Others are poor because, while they feel that there is a way out, they are too intellectually indolent to put forth the mental effort necessary to find that way and travel it. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">For these, the very best thing you can do is to arouse their desire by showing them the happiness that comes from being rightly rich. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><strong><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">Others still are poor because, while they have some notion of science, they have become so swamped and lost in the maze of theories that they do not know which road to take. They try a mixture of many systems and fail in all.</span></strong><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB"> <strong></strong></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">For these, again, the very best thing to do is to show the right way in your own person and practice. <strong>An ounce of doing things is worth a pound of theorizing.</strong> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">The very best thing you can do for the whole world is to make the most of yourself. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">You can serve God and humanity in no more effective way than by getting rich; that is, if you get rich by the creative method and not by the competitive one. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">Another thing. We assert that this book gives in detail the principles of the science of getting rich, and if that is true, you do not need to read any other book upon the subject. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">This may sound narrow and egotistical, but consider: There is no more scientific method of computation in mathematics than by addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division; no other method is possible. There can be but one shortest distance between two points. There is only one way to think scientifically, and that is to think in the way that leads by the most direct and simple route to the goal. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">No one has yet formulated a briefer or less complex “system” than the one set forth here. It has been stripped of all non-essentials. When you commence on this, lay all others aside. Put them out of your mind altogether. Read this book every day. Keep it with you. Commit it to memory, and do not think about other “systems” and theories. If you do, you will begin to have doubts and to be uncertain and wavering in your thought, and then you will begin to make failures. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><strong><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">After you have made good and become rich, you may study other systems as much as you please. And read only the most optimistic comments on the world’s news — those in harmony with your picture. </span></strong><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">Also, do not dabble in theosophy, spiritualism, or kindred studies. Perhaps the dead still live and are near, but if they are, let them alone; mind your own business. Wherever the spirits of the dead may be, they have their own work to do, and we have no right to interfere with them. We cannot help them, and it is very doubtful whether they can help us, or whether we have any right to trespass upon their time if they can. Let the dead and the hereafter alone, and solve your own problem: Get rich. If you begin to mix with the occult, you will start mental crosscurrents that will surely bring your hopes to shipwreck. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">Now, this and the preceding chapters have brought us to the following statement of basic facts: There is a thinking stuff from which all things are made, and which, in its original state, permeates, penetrates, and fills the interspaces of the universe. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><strong><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">A thought in this substance produces the thing that is imaged by the thought. A person can form things in his thought, and, by impressing his thought upon formless substance, can cause the thing he thinks about to be created. </span></strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">In order to do this, a person must pass from the competitive to the creative mind; he must form a clear mental picture of the things he wants, and hold this picture in his thoughts with the fixed PURPOSE to get what he wants, and the unwavering FAITH that he does get what he wants, closing his mind against all that may tend to shake his purpose, dim his vision, or quench his faith. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;" lang="EN-GB">And in addition to all this, we shall now see that he must live and act in a certain way.</span></p>

		<itunes:summary>The Science of Getting Rich by Wallace D Wattles
CHAPTER 10 Further Use of The Will  
YOU CANNOT RETAIN A TRUE AND CLEAR VISION OF WEALTH if you are constantly turning your attention to opposing pictures, whether they be external or imaginary. 
Do not tell of your past troubles of a financial nature, if you have had them. Do not think of them at all. Do not tell of the poverty of your parents or the hardships of your early life. 
To do any of these things is to mentally class yourself with the poor for the time being, and it will certainly check the movement of things in your direction. 
Put poverty and all things that pertain to poverty completely behind you. 
You have accepted a certain theory of the universe as being correct, and are resting all your hopes of happiness on its being correct. What can you gain by giving heed to conflicting theories? 
Do not read books which tell you that the world is soon coming to an end, and do not read the writing of muckrakers and pessimistic philosophers who tell you that it is going to the devil. 
The world is not going to the devil; it is going to God. It is a wonderful becoming. 
True, there may be a good many things in existing conditions that are disagreeable, but what is the use of studying them when they are certainly passing away and when the study of them only tends to slow their passing and keep them with us? 
Why give time and attention to things that are being removed by evolutionary growth, when you can hasten their removal only by promoting the evolutionary growth as far as your part of it goes? 
No matter how horrible in seeming may be the conditions in certain countries, sections, or places, you waste your time and destroy your own chances by dwelling on them.  
You should interest yourself in the worldrsquo;s becoming rich. Think of the riches the world is coming into instead of the poverty it is growing out of, and bear in mind that the only way in which you can assist the world in growing rich is by growing rich yourself through the creative method, not the competitive one. 
Give your attention wholly to riches. Do not focus on poverty. Whenever you think or speak of those who are poor, think and speak of them as those who are becoming rich, as those who are to be congratulated rather than pitied. 
Then they and others will catch the inspiration, and begin to search for the way out. Because I say that you are to give your whole time and mind and thought to riches, it does not follow that you are to be sordid or mean. 
To become really rich is the noblest aim you can have in life, for it includes everything else. On the competitive plane, the struggle to get rich is a Godless scramble for power over others, but when we come into the creative mind, all this is changed.  
All that is possible in the way of greatness, of service and lofty endeavour, comes by way of getting rich, because all is made possible by the use of things. You can aim at nothing so great or noble, I repeat, as to become rich, and you must fix your attention upon your mental picture of wealth to the exclusion of all that may tend to dim or obscure the vision. 
Some people remain in poverty because they are ignorant of the fact that there is wealth for them, and these can best be taught by showing them the way to affluence in your own person and practice. 
Others are poor because, while they feel that there is a way out, they are too intellectually indolent to put forth the mental effort necessary to find that way and travel it.

Others still are poor because, while they have some notion of science, they have become so swamped and lost in the maze of theories that they do not know which road to take. They try a mixture of many systems and fail in all.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB"><strong><span style="font-size: medium;">CHAPTER 9 How To Use The Will</span></strong> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">To set about getting rich in the certain way, you do not try to apply your will power to anything outside of yourself. You have no right to do so, anyway. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">It is wrong to apply your will to other men and women in order to get them to do what you wish done. It is as flagrantly wrong to coerce people by mental power, as it is to coerce them by physical power. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">If compelling people by physical force to do things for you reduces them to slavery, compelling them by mental means accomplishes exactly the same thing; the only difference is in methods.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB"> If taking things from people by physical force is robbery, then taking things by mental force is robbery also. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">There is no difference in principle.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB"> You have no right to use your will power upon another person, even “for his own good,” for you do not know what is for his good. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">The science of getting rich does not require you to apply power or force to any other person, in any way whatsoever. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">There is not the slightest necessity for doing so. Indeed, any attempt to use your will upon others will only tend to defeat your purpose. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"><strong><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">You do not need to apply your will to things in order to compel them to come to you. That would simply be trying to coerce God and would be foolish and useless</span></strong><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">You do not have to try to compel God to give you good things, any more than you have to use your will power to make the sun rise. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">You do not have to use your will power to conquer an unfriendly Deity, or to make stubborn and rebellious forces do your bidding. Substance is friendly to you, and is more anxious to give you what you want than you are to get it. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"><strong><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">To get rich, you need only to use your will power upon yourself. When you know what to think and do, then you must use your will to compel yourself to think and do the right things</span></strong><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">. That is the legitimate use of the will in getting what you want — to use it in holding yourself to the right course. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"><strong><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">Use your will to keep yourself thinking and acting in the certain way. Do not try to project your will, or your thoughts, or your mind out into space to “act” on things or people. Keep your mind at home</span></strong><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">It can accomplish more there than elsewhere. Use your mind to form a mental image of what you want and to hold that vision with faith and purpose. And use your will to keep your mind working in the right way. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"><strong><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">The more steady and continuous your faith and purpose, the more rapidly you will get rich because you will make only POSITIVE impressions upon substance, and you will not neutralize or offset them by negative impressions. </span></strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"><strong><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">The picture of your desires, held with faith and purpose, is taken up by the formless, and permeates it to great distances — throughout the universe, for all we know. </span></strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">As this impression spreads, all things are set moving toward its realization. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB"> Every living thing, every inanimate thing, and the things yet uncreated are stirred toward bringing into being that which you want. All force begins to be exerted in that direction. All things begin to move toward you. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">The minds of people everywhere are influenced toward doing the things necessary to the fulfilling of your desires, and they work for you, unconsciously. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">But you can check all this by starting a negative impression in the formless substance. Doubt or unbelief is as certain to start a movement away from you, as faith and purpose are to start one toward you.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"><strong><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB"> It is by not understanding this that most people make their failure.</span></strong><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB"> Every hour and moment you spend in giving heed to doubts and fears, every hour you spend in worry, every hour in which your soul is possessed by unbelief, sets a current away from you in the whole domain of intelligent substance. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">All the promises are unto them that believe, and unto them only. Since belief is all-important, it behoves you to guard your thoughts, and as your beliefs will be shaped to a very great extent by the things you observe and think about, it is important that you should carefully govern to what you give your attention. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">And here the will comes into use, for it is by your will that you determine upon what things your attention shall be fixed. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB"> If you want to become rich, you must not make a study of poverty. Things are not brought into being by thinking about their opposites. Health is never to be attained by studying disease and thinking about disease; righteousness is not to be promoted by studying sin and thinking about sin; and no one ever got rich by studying poverty and thinking about poverty.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB"> Medicine as a science of disease has increased disease; religion as a science of sin has promoted sin, and economics as a study of poverty will fill the world with wretchedness and want. </span><strong><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB"> </span></strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"><strong><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">Do not talk about poverty, do not investigate it, or concern yourself with it. </span></strong></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">Do not spend your time in so-called charitable work</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">Do some of these bold statements challenge or confuse you? </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">Get the insights and thoughts of other like-minded people in the charity movements; most charity only tends to perpetuate the wretchedness it aims to eradicate. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">I do not say that you should be hard-hearted or unkind and refuse to hear the cry of need, but you must not try to eradicate poverty in any of the conventional ways. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">Put poverty behind you, and put all that pertains to it behind you, and “make good.” Get rich. That is the best way you can help the poor. And you cannot hold the mental image that is to make you rich if you fill your mind with pictures of poverty and all its attendant ills. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">Do not read books or papers which give circumstantial accounts of the wretchedness of the tenement dwellers, of the horrors of child labour, and so on. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">Do not read anything that fills your mind with gloomy images of want and suffering. You cannot help the poor in the least by knowing about these things, and the widespread knowledge of them does not tend at all to do away with poverty. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">What tends to do away with poverty is not the getting of pictures of poverty into your mind, but getting pictures of wealth, abundance, and possibility into the minds of the poor. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">You are not deserting the poor in their misery when you refuse to allow your mind to be filled with pictures of that misery. Poverty can be done away with, not by increasing the number of well-to-do people who think about poverty, but by increasing the number of poor people who purpose with faith to get rich. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">The poor do not need charity; they need inspiration. Charity only sends them a loaf of bread to keep them alive in their wretchedness, or gives them an entertainment to make them forget for an hour or two. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"><strong><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">But inspiration can cause them to rise out of their misery. If you want to help the poor, demonstrate to them that they can become rich.</span></strong><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB"> Prove it by getting rich yourself. The only way in which poverty will ever be banished from this world is by getting a large and constantly increasing number of people to practice the teachings of this book.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB"> People must be taught to become rich by creation, not by competition. Every person who becomes rich by competition knocks down the ladder by which he rises, and keeps others down, but every person who gets rich by creation opens a way for thousands to follow — and inspires them to do so. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;" align="left"><span style="font-size: 12pt;" lang="EN-GB">You are not showing hardness of heart or an unfeeling disposition when you refuse to pity poverty, see poverty, read about poverty, or think or talk about it, or to listen to those who do talk about it. Use your will power to keep your mind OFF the subject of poverty and to keep it fixed with faith and purpose ON the vision of what you want and are creating.</span></p>

		<itunes:summary>The Science of Getting Rich by Wallace D Wattles
CHAPTER 9 How To Use The Will 
To set about getting rich in the certain way, you do not try to apply your will power to anything outside of yourself. You have no right to do so, anyway. 
It is wrong to apply your will to other men and women in order to get them to do what you wish done. It is as flagrantly wrong to coerce people by mental power, as it is to coerce them by physical power. 
If compelling people by physical force to do things for you reduces them to slavery, compelling them by mental means accomplishes exactly the same thing; the only difference is in methods.
 If taking things from people by physical force is robbery, then taking things by mental force is robbery also. 
There is no difference in principle.
 You have no right to use your will power upon another person, even ldquo;for his own good,rdquo; for you do not know what is for his good. 
The science of getting rich does not require you to apply power or force to any other person, in any way whatsoever. 
There is not the slightest necessity for doing so. Indeed, any attempt to use your will upon others will only tend to defeat your purpose. 
You do not need to apply your will to things in order to compel them to come to you. That would simply be trying to coerce God and would be foolish and useless 
You do not have to try to compel God to give you good things, any more than you have to use your will power to make the sun rise. 
You do not have to use your will power to conquer an unfriendly Deity, or to make stubborn and rebellious forces do your bidding. Substance is friendly to you, and is more anxious to give you what you want than you are to get it. 
To get rich, you need only to use your will power upon yourself. When you know what to think and do, then you must use your will to compel yourself to think and do the right things. That is the legitimate use of the will in getting what you want mdash; to use it in holding yourself to the right course. 
Use your will to keep yourself thinking and acting in the certain way. Do not try to project your will, or your thoughts, or your mind out into space to ldquo;actrdquo; on things or people. Keep your mind at home. 
It can accomplish more there than elsewhere. Use your mind to form a mental image of what you want and to hold that vision with faith and purpose. And use your will to keep your mind working in the right way. 
The more steady and continuous your faith and purpose, the more rapidly you will get rich because you will make only POSITIVE impressions upon substance, and you will not neutralize or offset them by negative impressions. 
The picture of your desires, held with faith and purpose, is taken up by the formless, and permeates it to great distances mdash; throughout the universe, for all we know. 
As this impression spreads, all things are set moving toward its realization. 
 Every living thing, every inanimate thing, and the things yet uncreated are stirred toward bringing into being that which you want. All force begins to be exerted in that direction. All things begin to move toward you. 
The minds of people everywhere are influenced toward doing the things necessary to the fulfilling of your desires, and they work for you, unconsciously. 
But you can check all this by starting a negative impression in the formless substance. Doubt or unbelief is as certain to start a movement away from you, as faith and purpose are to start one toward you.
 It is by not understanding this that most people make their failure. Every hour and moment you spend in giving heed to doubts and fears, every hour you spend in worry, every hour in which your soul is possessed by unbelief, sets a current away from you in the whole domain of intelligent substance. 
All the promises are unto them that believe, and unto them only. Since belief is all-important, it behoves you to guard your thoughts, and as your beliefs will be shaped to a very great ...</itunes:summary>

<strong>The Science of Getting Rich by Wallace D Wattles<br />
CHAPTER 8 Thinking in The Certain Way</strong></p>
<p>TURN BACK TO CHAPTER 6 AND READ AGAIN the story of the man who formed a mental image of his house and you will get a fair idea of the initial step toward getting rich.</p>
<p>You must form a clear and definite mental picture of what you want.</p>
<p>You cannot transmit an idea unless you have it yourself. You must have it before you can give it, and many people fail to impress thinking substance because they have themselves only a vague and misty concept of the things they want to do, to have, or to become.</p>
<p>It is not enough that you should have a general desire for wealth “to do good with.” Everybody has that desire. It is not enough that you should have a wish to travel, see things, live more, etc. Everybody has those desires also. If you were going to send a wireless message to a friend, you would not send the letters of the alphabet in their order and let him construct the message for himself, nor would you take words at random from the dictionary.</p>
<p>You would send a coherent sentence, one, which meant something.</p>
<p>When you try to impress your wants upon the thinking substance, remember that it must be done with a coherent statement. You must know what you want and be specific and definite.</p>
<p>You can never get rich or start the creative power into action by sending out unformed longings and vague desires.</p>
<p>Go over your desires just as the man I have described went over his house.</p>
<p>See just what you want and get a clear mental picture of it as you wish it to look when you get it. That clear mental picture you must have continually in mind.</p>
<p>As the sailor has in mind the port toward which he is sailing the ship, you must keep your face toward it all the time.</p>
<p>You must no more lose sight of it than the helmsman loses sight of the compass. It is not necessary to take exercises in concentration, nor to set apart special times for prayer and affirmation, nor to “go into the silence,” nor to do occult stunts of any kind.</p>
<p>Some of these things are well enough, but all you need is to know what you want and to want it badly enough so that it will stay in your thoughts.</p>
<p>Spend as much of your leisure time as you can in contemplating your picture. But no one needs to take exercises to concentrate his mind on a thing, which he really wants.</p>
<p>It is the things you do not really care about which require effort to fix your attention upon them.</p>
<p>And unless you really want to get rich, so that the desire is strong enough to hold your thoughts directed to the purpose as the magnetic pole holds the needle of the compass, it will hardly be worthwhile for you to try to carry out the instructions given in this book.</p>
<p>The methods set forth here are for people whose desire for riches is strong enough to overcome mental laziness and the love of ease, and to make them work.</p>
<p>The more clear and definite you make your picture then, and the more you dwell upon it, bringing out all its delightful details, the stronger your desire will be.</p>
<p>And the stronger your desire, the easier it will be to hold your mind fixed upon the picture of what you want.</p>
<p>Something more is necessary, however, than merely to see the picture clearly. If that is all you do, you are only a dreamer, and will have little or no power for accomplishment.</p>
<p>Behind your clear vision must be the purpose to realize it, to bring it out in tangible expression. And behind this purpose must be an invincible and unwavering FAITH that the thing is already yours that it is “at hand” and you have only to take possession of it.</p>
<p>Live in the new house, mentally, until it takes form around you physically. In the mental realm, enter at once into full enjoyment of the things you want. “Whatsoever things ye ask for when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them,” said Jesus.</p>
<p>See the things you want as if they were actually around you all the time.</p>
<p>See yourself as owning and using them. Make use of them in imagination just as you will use them when they are your tangible possessions.</p>
<p>Dwell upon your mental picture until it is clear and distinct, and then take the mental attitude of ownership toward everything in that picture.</p>
<p>Take possession of it, in mind, in the full faith that it is actually yours. Hold to this mental ownership. Do not waiver for an instant in the faith that it is real.</p>
<p>And remember what was said in a proceeding chapter about gratitude: Be as thankful for it all the time as you expect to be when it has taken form.</p>
<p>The person who can sincerely thank God for the things that as yet he owns only in imagination has real faith. He will get rich.</p>
<p>He will cause the creation of whatever he wants. You do not need to pray repeatedly for things you want. It is not necessary to tell God about it every day.</p>
<p>Your part is to intelligently formulate your desire for the things which make for a larger life and to get these desire arranged into a coherent whole, and then to impress this whole desire upon the formless substance, which has the power and the will to bring you what you want.</p>
<p>You do not make this impression by repeating strings of words; you make it by holding the vision with unshakable PURPOSE to attain it and with steadfast FAITH that you do attain it.</p>
<p>The answer to prayer is not according to your faith while you are talking, but according to your faith while you are working. Keep yourself focused and thinking in the certain way with of words; you make it by holding the vision with unshakable PURPOSE to attain it and with steadfast FAITH that you do attain it.</p>
<p>The answer to prayer is not according to your faith while you are talking, but according to your faith while you are working.</p>
<p>You cannot impress the mind of God by having a special Sabbath day set apart to tell him what you want, and then forgetting him during the rest of the week.</p>
<p>You cannot impress him by having special hours to go into your closet and pray, if you then dismiss the matter from your mind until the hour of prayer comes again.</p>
<p>Oral prayer is well enough, and has its effect, especially upon yourself, in clarifying your vision and strengthening your faith, but it is not your oral petitions that get you what you want.</p>
<p>In order to get rich you do not need a “sweet hour of prayer;” you need to “pray without ceasing.”</p>
<p>And by prayer I mean holding steadily to your vision, with the purpose to cause its creation into solid form, and the faith that you are doing so. “Believe that ye receive them.” Once you have clearly formed your vision, the whole matter turns on receiving.</p>
<p>When you have formed it, it is well to make an oral statement, addressing the supreme in gratitude.</p>
<p>Then, from that moment on you must, in mind, receive what you ask for. Live in the new house, wear the fine clothes, ride in the automobile, go on the journey, and confidently plan for greater journeys.</p>
<p>Think and speak of all the things you have asked for in terms of actual present ownership. Imagine an environment and a financial condition exactly as you want them, and live all the time in that mental environment and financial condition until they take physical shape.</p>
<p>Mind, however, that you do not do this as a mere dreamer and castle builder. Hold to the FAITH that the imaginary is being realized and to your PURPOSE to realize it.</p>
<p>Remember that it is faith and purpose in the use of the imagination that make the difference between the scientist and the dreamer. And having learned this fact, it is here that you must learn the proper use of the will.</p>

CHAPTER 7 Gratitude

THE ILLUSTRATIONS GIVEN IN THE LAST CHAPTER will have conveyed to the reader the fact that the first step toward getting rich is to convey the idea of your wants to the formless substance.

This is true, and you will see that in order to do so it becomes necessary to relate yourself to the formless intelligence in a harmonious way. To secure this harmonious relation is a matter of such primary and vital importance that I shall give some space to its discussion here and give you instructions, which, if you will follow them, will be certain to bring you into perfect unity of mind with the supreme power, or God.

The whole process of mental adjustment can be summed up in one word: Gratitude.

First, you believe that there is one intelligent substance, from which all things proceed.

Second, you believe that this substance gives you everything you desire.

And third, you relate yourself to it by a feeling of deep and profound gratitude.

Many people who order their lives rightly in all other ways are kept in poverty by their lack of gratitude.

Having received one gift from God, they cut the wires, which connect them with him by failing to make acknowledgment.

It is easy to understand that the nearer we live to the source of wealth, the more wealth we shall receive, and it is easy also to understand that the soul that is always grateful lives in closer touch with God than the one which never looks to him in thankful acknowledgment.

The more gratefully we fix our minds on the supreme when good things come to us, the more good things we will receive, and the more rapidly they will come.

And the reason simply is that the mental attitude of gratitude draws the mind into closer touch with the source from which the blessings come.

If it is a new thought to you that gratitude brings your whole mind into closer harmony with the creative energies of the universe, consider it well, and you will see that it is true.

The good things you have, already have come to you along the line of obedience to certain laws. Gratitude will lead your mind out along the ways by which things come, and it will keep you in close harmony with creative thought and prevent you from falling into competitive thought.

Gratitude alone can keep you looking toward the all, and prevent you from falling into the error of thinking of the supply as limited — and to do that would be fatal to your hopes. There is a law of gratitude, and it is absolutely necessary that you should observe the law if you are to get the results you seek.

The law of gratitude is the natural principle that action and reaction are always equal and in opposite directions.

The grateful outreaching of your mind in thankful praise to the supreme intelligence is a liberation or expenditure of force. It cannot fail to reach that to which it addressed, and the reaction is an instantaneous movement toward you. “Draw nigh unto God, and he will draw nigh unto you.” That is a statement of psychological truth.

And if your gratitude is strong and constant, the reaction in formless substance will be strong and continuous; the movement of the things you want will be always toward you.

Notice the grateful attitude that Jesus took, how he always seems to be saying, “I thank thee, Father, that thou hearest me.” You cannot exercise much power without gratitude, for it is gratitude that keeps you connected with power.

But the value of gratitude does not consist solely in getting you more blessings in the future. Without gratitude you cannot long keep from dissatisfied thought regarding things as they are.

The moment you permit your mind to dwell with dissatisfaction upon things as they are, you begin to lose ground. You fix attention upon the common, the ordinary, the poor, the squalid, and the mean — and your mind takes the form of these things.

Then you will transmit these forms or mental images to the formless. And the common, the poor, the squalid, and the mean will come to you. To permit your mind to dwell upon the inferior is to become inferior and to surround yourself with inferior things. On the other hand, to fix your attention on the best is to surround yourself with the best, and to become the best.

The creative power within us makes us into the image of that to which we give our attention. We are of thinking substance, too, and thinking substance always takes the form of that which it thinks about.

The grateful mind is constantly fixed upon the best. Therefore it tends to become the best. It takes the form or character of the best, and will receive the best.

Also, faith is born of gratitude. The grateful mind continually expects good things, and expectation becomes faith. The reaction of gratitude upon one’s own mind produces faith, and every outgoing wave of grateful thanksgiving increases faith. The person who has no feeling of gratitude cannot long retain a living faith, and without a living faith you cannot get rich by the creative method, as we shall see in the following chapters.

It is necessary, then, to cultivate the habit of being grateful for every good thing that comes to you and to give thanks continuously.

And because all things have contributed to your advancement, you should include all things in your gratitude. Do not waste a lot of time thinking or talking about the shortcomings or wrong actions of those in power.

Their organization of the world has created your opportunity; all you get really comes to you because of them.

Do not rage against corrupt politicians. If it were not for politicians we should fall into anarchy and your opportunity would be greatly lessened.

God has worked a long time and very patiently to bring us up to where we are in industry and government, and he is going right on with his work.

There is not the least doubt that he will do away with plutocrats, trust magnates, captains of industry, and politicians as soon as they can be spared, but in the meantime, they are all very necessary.

Remember that they are all helping to arrange the lines of transmission along which your riches will come to you, and be grateful.

This will bring you into harmonious relations with the good in everything, and the good in everything will move toward you.]]></description>

CHAPTER 6 How Riches Come To You

WHEN I SAY THAT YOU DO NOT HAVE TO DRIVE SHARP BARGAINS, I do not mean that you do not have to drive any bargains at all or that you are above the necessity for having any dealings with your fellow men.

I mean that you will not need to deal with them unfairly. You do not have to get something for nothing, but can give to every person more than you take from him.

You cannot give everyone more in cash market value than you take from him, but you can give him more in use value than the cash value of the thing you take from him.

The paper, ink, and other material in this book may not be worth the money you pay for it, but if the ideas suggested by it bring you thousands of dollars, those who sold it to you have not wronged you. They have given you a great use value for a small cash value.

Let us suppose that I own a picture by one of the great artists, which, in a developed society, is worth thousands of dollars. I take it toBaffin Bay

and by “salesmanship” induce a native dweller to give a bundle of furs worth $500 for it.

I have really wronged him, for he has no use for the picture. It has no use value to him; it will not add to his life. But suppose I give him a gun worth $50 for his furs. Then he has made a good bargain. He has use for the gun. It will get him many more furs and much food; it will add to his life in every way. It will make him rich.

When you rise from the competitive to the creative plane, you can scan your business transactions very strictly, and if you are selling any person anything which does not add more to his life than the thing he give you in exchange, you can afford to stop it.

You do not have to beat anybody in business. And if you are in a business, which does beat people, get out of it at once.

Give everyone more in use value than you take from him in cash value. Then you are adding to the life of the world by every business transaction.

If you have people working for you, you must take from them more in cash value than you pay them in wages, but you can so organize your business that it will be filled with the principle of advancement, and so that each employee who wishes to do so may advance a little every day.

You can make your business do for your employees what this book is doing for you. You can so conduct your business that it will be a sort of ladder by which every employee who will take the trouble may climb to riches himself.

And given the opportunity, if he will not do so, it is not your fault.

And finally, just because you are to cause the creation of your riches from formless substance which permeates all your environment, it does not follow that they are to take shape from the atmosphere and come into being before your eyes.

If you want a sewing machine, for instance, I do not mean to tell you that you are to impress the thought of a sewing machine on thinking substance until the machine is formed without hands, in the room where you sit or elsewhere.

But if you want a sewing machine, hold the mental image of it with the most positive certainty that it is being made or is on its way to you. After once forming the thought, have the most absolute and unquestioning faith that the sewing machine is coming.

Never think of it or speak of it in any other way than as being sure to arrive. Claim it as already yours. It will be brought to you by the power of the supreme intelligence, acting upon the minds of men.

If you live inMaine

, it may be that a person will be brought fromTexas

orJapan

to engage in some transaction that will result in your getting what you want. If so, the whole matter will be as much to that person’s advantage as it is to yours.

Do not forget for a moment that the thinking substance is through all, in all, communicating with all, and can influence all.

The desire of thinking substance for fuller life and better living has caused the creation of all the sewing machines already made, and it can cause the creation of millions more — and will, whenever people set it in motion by desire and faith and by acting in a certain way.

You can certainly have a sewing machine in your house, and it is just as certain that you can have any other thing or things which you want and which you will use for the advancement of your own life and the lives of others. You need not hesitate about asking largely. “It is your Father’s pleasure to give you the kingdom,” said Jesus.

Original substance wants to live all that is possible in you, and wants you to have all that you can use and will use for the living of the most abundant life.

If you fix upon your consciousness the fact that your desire for the possession of riches is one with the desire of the supreme power for more complete expression, your faith becomes invincible.

Once I saw a little boy sitting at a piano, vainly trying to bring harmony out of the keys. I saw that he was grieved and provoked by his inability to play real music. I asked him the cause of his vexation, and he answered, “I can feel the music in me, but I can’t make my hands go right.” The music in him was the URGE of original substance, containing all the possibilities of all life. All that there is of music was seeking expression through the child.

God, the one substance, is trying to live and do and enjoy things through humanity. He is saying “I want hands to build wonderful structures, to play divine harmonies, to paint glorious pictures. I want feet to run my errands, eyes to see my beauties, tongues to tell mighty truths and to sing marvellous songs,” and so on.

All that there is of possibility is seeking expression through people. God wants those who can play music to have pianos and every other instrument and to have the means to cultivate their talents to the fullest extent.

He wants those who can appreciate beauty to be able to surround themselves with beautiful things. He wants those who can discern truth to have every opportunity to travel and observe.

He wants those who can appreciate dress to be beautifully clothed, and those who can appreciate good food to be luxuriously fed. He wants all these things because it is himself that enjoys and appreciates them; they are his creation.

It is God who wants to play, and sing, and enjoy beauty, and proclaim truth, and wear fine clothes, and eat good foods. “It is God that worketh in you to will and to do,” said the apostle Paul.

The desire you feel for riches is the infinite, seeking to express himself in you as he sought to find expression in the little boy at the piano. So you need not hesitate to ask largely. Your part is to focus on and express that desire to God.

This is a difficult point with most people. They retain something of the old idea that poverty and self-sacrifice are pleasing to God. They look upon poverty as a part of the plan, a necessity of nature. They have the idea that God has finished his work, and made all that he can make, and that the majority of people must stay poor because there is not enough to go around.

They hold to so much of this erroneous thought that they feel ashamed to ask for wealth. They try not to want more than a very modest competence, just enough to make them fairly comfortable.

I recall now the case of one student who was told that he must get in mind a clear picture of the things he desired, so that the creative thought of them might be impressed on formless substance. He was a very poor man, living in a rented house and having only what he earned from day to day, and he could not grasp the fact that all wealth was his.

So, after thinking the matter over, he decided that he might reasonably ask for a new rug for the floor of his best room and a coal stove to heat the house during the cold weather. Following the instructions given in this book, he obtained these things in a few months. And then it dawned upon him that he had not asked enough.

He went through the house in which he lived, and planned all the improvements he would like to make in it. He mentally added a bay window here and a room there until it was complete in his mind as his ideal home, and then he planned its furnishings.

Holding the whole picture in his mind, he began living in the certain way and moving toward what he wanted — and he owns the house now and is rebuilding it after the form of his mental image.

And now, with still larger faith, he is going on to get greater things. It has been unto him according to his faith, and so it is with you — and with all of us.]]></description>

		<itunes:summary>The Science of Getting Rich by Wallace D Wattles
CHAPTER 6 How Riches Come To You 
WHEN I SAY THAT YOU DO NOT HAVE TO DRIVE SHARP BARGAINS, I do not mean that you do not have to drive any bargains at all or that you are above the necessity for having any dealings with your fellow men. 
I mean that you will not need to deal with them unfairly. You do not have to get something for nothing, but can give to every person more than you take from him. 
You cannot give everyone more in cash market value than you take from him, but you can give him more in use value than the cash value of the thing you take from him. 
The paper, ink, and other material in this book may not be worth the money you pay for it, but if the ideas suggested by it bring you thousands of dollars, those who sold it to you have not wronged you. They have given you a great use value for a small cash value. 
Let us suppose that I own a picture by one of the great artists, which, in a developed society, is worth thousands of dollars. I take it toBaffin Bay

and by ldquo;salesmanshiprdquo; induce a native dweller to give a bundle of furs worth $500 for it.
I have really wronged him, for he has no use for the picture. It has no use value to him; it will not add to his life. But suppose I give him a gun worth $50 for his furs. Then he has made a good bargain. He has use for the gun. It will get him many more furs and much food; it will add to his life in every way. It will make him rich. 
When you rise from the competitive to the creative plane, you can scan your business transactions very strictly, and if you are selling any person anything which does not add more to his life than the thing he give you in exchange, you can afford to stop it. 
You do not have to beat anybody in business. And if you are in a business, which does beat people, get out of it at once. 
Give everyone more in use value than you take from him in cash value. Then you are adding to the life of the world by every business transaction. 
If you have people working for you, you must take from them more in cash value than you pay them in wages, but you can so organize your business that it will be filled with the principle of advancement, and so that each employee who wishes to do so may advance a little every day. 
You can make your business do for your employees what this book is doing for you. You can so conduct your business that it will be a sort of ladder by which every employee who will take the trouble may climb to riches himself. 
And given the opportunity, if he will not do so, it is not your fault.  
And finally, just because you are to cause the creation of your riches from formless substance which permeates all your environment, it does not follow that they are to take shape from the atmosphere and come into being before your eyes.
 If you want a sewing machine, for instance, I do not mean to tell you that you are to impress the thought of a sewing machine on thinking substance until the machine is formed without hands, in the room where you sit or elsewhere. 
But if you want a sewing machine, hold the mental image of it with the most positive certainty that it is being made or is on its way to you. After once forming the thought, have the most absolute and unquestioning faith that the sewing machine is coming. 
Never think of it or speak of it in any other way than as being sure to arrive. Claim it as already yours. It will be brought to you by the power of the supreme intelligence, acting upon the minds of men. 
If you live inMaine

, it may be that a person will be brought fromTexas

orJapan
