Resumo de The Science Of Getting Rich

When Wallace D. Wattles release his book ?the Science of Getting Rich? in 1910, little did he know the impact it would have on many person?s lives almost one hundred years later. According to Wattles there is a science of getting rich and in order to be rich every man must adhere to its principles.

Now what is the science, what are the principles of getting rich?

The major principle covered in the book, I believe, is a natural law that states that ?like causes always produces like effects?. Therefore the people in this world, who are rich, become and remain rich because they are doing things in a particular way whether consciously or unconsciously. Those who are not doing things in this particular way will remain poor no matter how hard or how long they work or how capable they are. Wattles believes that this principle eliminates the excuse that the environment is why many are not rich. It also eliminates the idea that doing things a particular way is only for persons with talent.

The next principle according to Wattles is one that has over the last year or so, and still is, been getting a lot of attention. It is called the law of attraction and it has been made famous by Rhonda Byrnes'' book and DVD ?The Secret? which was featured on CNN and Oprah among other media programs. This principle states ?Thoughts Become Things?. You see our world and everything in it first began with a thought. The Thoughts that we think are emitted vibrations broadcasted into the universe, attracting to them vibrations of the same frequency which manifest what we come to see and experience in our physical world as our current reality. Man cannot shape a thing until he has first, thought that thing.

The third principle is ?The Law of Gratitude? which is nothing more than giving thanks to God for his gifts. The more grateful we are as we focus our mind on God when good things come our way the more good things we will receive and the more quickly they will come. Gratitude draws our mind into closer link with God and His blessing. Many are kept in poverty by their lack of gratitude. There is a whole chapter on Grattitude.

The fourth principle is that of Visualization of your desire and its attainment. You cannot transmit an idea unless you have it yourself. Visualization is about forming and holding a clear and definite mental picture of what it is you want.

The fifth principle is Personal Action. This arguably the second most important principle in the Science of Getting Rich for without action all your thoughts will mean and attain nothing. You must take definite action now. Your personal action, however, must be of such that you can rightly receive what you want when it comes. It makes no sense to desire something and not take some action towards its attainment; this will only lead to frustration leaving you feeling discouraged. There is a quote, which says ?He who desires but acts not breeds pestilence?.

The last principle is that of Getting in the Right Business. You will do best in that Business for which your abilities are best suited. That means it will be easier to succeed if you are in a business for which you are well equipped with the skills and mental tools. Bear in mind, however, that you can get rich in any business even if you do not possess the necessary talents because you can develop the skills needed as you go along. Also you can get rich most satisfactorily if you do that which you want to do.
