Classic

I enjoyed how the author brings such simplicity to this topic and suggests changing your thoughts, which therefore changes your actions, which then changes your outcomes. There were several useful points that I feel will help folks achieve their goals of building wealth and keeping wealth

Review The Science of Getting Rich

This book takes effort to listen from beginning to end. I suggest listening to the summary, chapter 17.

The Thinking Stuff from Which All Things Are Made

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this book!

This is a brilliant piece of work. The concepts shared are unique, easy to understand and affirming. They are presented clearly and in a logical manner. Most importantly, they are believable!

Summary of the book:

"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. Man 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, man must pass from the competitive to the creative mind; otherwise he cannot be in harmony with the Formless Intelligence, which is always creative and never competitive in spirit.

Man 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. Man can remain upon the creative plane only by uniting himself with the Formless Intelligence through a deep and continuous feeling of gratitude.

Man 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 man 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."

One method among many to get rich.

I am not a fan of these types of Books but this is a review of the merits of this work.My contention is All roads lead to Rome,
in other words you need to find what works for you to get to your destination.It can be religion or charitable work or family
or Business or exploration or Travel.

Based on your background and character you can find your path.

This Book has its philosophy its general views on how a person can channel their energy to succeed or get rich,which is not the
same thing,you can be a success in life without being rich,after all what is the meaning of rich ?

Regardless,If the formula in this Book works for you then wonderful I suggest their is no harm in giving this work a try I simply
believe its views are not Universal they can work for certain people.

This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.
