The Science Of Getting Rich, As Taught By The Wealth Masters To Their Descendants From Generation To Generation

Waring: Do not read this if you are already rich; that is, if you already have a lot of money flowing into your life, and if you are already living the lifestyle of your dreams – the one with absolutely no money worries.

Introduction

A careful probe into the lives of thousands of rich people all over the world shows that there is a Science of Getting Rich, and it is an exact science – like algebra or arithmetic – which never fails.

It's very true! There are certain laws that govern the process of acquiring riches, and once these laws are learned and obeyed by any man, he cannot remain poor. He will get rich, and he will do so with absolute mathematical certainty.

You see, the ownership of money and property comes as a result of doing things in a Certain Way, and those who do things in this Certain Way, whether on purpose or by accident, get rich; while those who do not do things in this Certain Way, no matter how hard they work or how able they are, never get rich.

It is a natural law, that like causes always produce like effects; and, therefore, any man or woman who learns to do things in this Certain Way will infallibly get rich.

That the above statement is true is shown by the following...

About Environment

Getting rich is not a matter of environment, for, if it were, all the people in certain neighbourhoods would become wealthy, while those in other neighbourhoods will all be destitute. The people of one city would all be rich, while those of other towns would all be poor; or the inhabitants of one state would roll in wealth, while those of an adjoining state would all be living in abject poverty.

But everywhere we go, we see rich and poor people living side-by-side, in the same environments, and often engaged in the same vocations.

You see, when two men are in the same locality, and in the same business, and one gets rich while the other remains poor, it shows that getting rich is not, primarily, a matter of environment.

Some environments may be more favourable than others, but when two men in the same business are in the same neighbourhood, and one gets rich while the other fails miserably, it indicates that getting rich is the result of doing things in a Certain Way.

About Talents And Abilities

Getting rich is not due solely to the possession of talent or special abilities; for, many people who have great talent remain poor, while others who have very little talent get rich.

Studying the people who have gotten rich, we find that the vast majority of them are an average lot in all respects, having no greater talents and abilities than other men. It is, therefore, evident that they do not get rich because they possess talents or abilities that other men have not, but because they happen to do things in a Certain Way.

Getting rich is not the result of saving, or "thrift"; for, many very penurious people are poor, while free spenders often get rich.

Nor is getting rich due to doing things which others fail to do; for, two men in the same business often do almost exactly the same things, yet one gets rich while the other remains poor or goes bankrupt.

From all these things, we must come to the conclusion that getting rich is the result of doing things in a Certain Way.

If getting rich is the result of doing things in a Certain Way, and if like causes always produce like effects, then any man or woman who can do things in that Certain Way can become rich, and the whole matter is brought within the domain of exact science.

The question arises here as to whether this Certain Way may not be so difficult that only a few people may be able to follow it?

Well, this cannot be true; for, as we see being demonstrated time and time again...

Talented people get rich, and blockheads get rich; Intellectually brilliant people get rich, and very stupid people get rich; Physically strong people get rich, and very weak and sickly people get rich.

Some degree of ability to think and understand is, of course, essential; but in so far as natural ability is concerned, any man or woman who has sense enough to act in this Certain Way will definitely get rich.

Also, we have seen that it is not a matter of environment. Yes, location counts for something, as one cannot go to the heart of the Sahara desert and expect to do successful business there. And yes, getting rich may involve the necessity of dealing with other people, and of being where there are people to deal with; and if these people are inclined to deal in the way you want to deal, so much the better. But that is about as far as it goes when it comes to environmental factors.

So if anybody else in your town has gotten rich, so can you; and if anybody else in your state has gotten rich, so can you.

About Vocation Or Profession

Again, getting rich is not a matter of choosing some particular business, profession or vocation. And that's because people get rich in every business, and in every profession; while their next door neighbours in the same or similar vocations never rise above the poverty line.

It is true that you will do best in a business that you like, and which is congenial to you; and if you have certain talents that are well developed, you will do best in a business that calls for the exercise of those talents.

Also, you will do best in a business which is suited to your locality. For example, an ice-cream parlour would do better in a warm climate than in Greenland, and a salmon fishery will succeed better in the Northwest than in Florida, where there are no salmons.

But, aside from these general limitations, getting rich is not dependent upon your engaging in some particular business, but upon your learning to do things in a Certain Way. So if you are now in business, and anybody else in your locality is getting rich in the same business while you are not getting rich, it is because you are not doing things in the same Way that the other person is doing them.

About Capital

No one is prevented from getting rich by lack of capital. True, as you get capital, the increase becomes more easy and rapid; but one who has capital is already rich, and does not need to consider how to become so.

No matter how poor you may be, if you begin to do things in this Certain Way, you will begin to get rich; and you will begin to have capital. The getting of capital is a part of the process of getting rich; and it is a part of the result that invariably follows the doing of things in the Certain Way.

You may be the poorest man on the continent, and be deeply in debt; you may have neither friends, influence, nor resources; but if you begin to do things in this way, you must infallibly begin to get rich; for, like causes must always produce like effects.

If you have no capital, you can get capital; if you are in the wrong business, you can get into the right business; if you are in the wrong location, you can go to the right location; and you can do so by beginning in your present business and in your present location to do things in the Certain Way that produces results.

About Opportunity

NO man is kept poor because opportunity has been taken away from him or because other people have monopolized the wealth, and have put a fence around it. You may be shut off from engaging in business in certain lines, but there are other channels open to you.

It is quite true that if you are a workman in the employ of the steel trust, you have very little chance of becoming the owner of the plant in which you work; but it is also true that if you will commence to act in a Certain Way, you can soon leave the employ of the steel trust.

At different periods, the tide of opportunity sets in different directions, according to the needs of the whole, and the particular stage of social evolution which has been reached.

There is abundance of opportunity for the man who will go with the tide, instead of trying to swim against it. So the factory workers, either as individuals or as a class, are not deprived of opportunity. The workers are not being "kept down" by their masters; they are not being "ground" by the trusts and combinations of capital. As a class, they are where they are because they do not do things in a Certain Way.

The working class may become the master class whenever they will begin to do things in a Certain Way; the law of wealth is the same for them as it is for all others. This they must learn; and they will remain where they are as long as they continue to do as they do.

The individual worker, however, is not held down by the ignorance or the mental slothfulness of his class; he can follow the tide of opportunity to riches.

About Natural Resources

No one is kept in poverty by a shortness in the supply of riches; there is more than enough for all. A palace as large as the capitol at Washington might be built for every family on earth from the building materials in the United States alone; and under intensive cultivation, this one country could produce wool, cotton, linen, and silk enough to cloth each person in the world finer than Solomon was arrayed in all his glory; together with food enough to feed them all luxuriously.

The visible supply is practically inexhaustible; and the invisible supply really IS inexhaustible. Everything you see on earth is made from one original substance, out of which all things proceed.

New Forms are constantly being made, and older ones are dissolving; but all are shapes assumed by One Thing. There is no limit to the supply of Formless Stuff, or Original Substance. The universe is made out of it; but it was not all used in making the universe. The spaces in, through, and between the forms of the visible universe are permeated and filled with the Original Substance; with the formless Stuff; with the raw material of all things. A million times as much as has been made might still be made, and even then we should not have exhausted the supply of universal raw material. No man, therefore, is poor because nature is poor, or because there is not enough to go around.

Nature is an inexhaustible storehouse of riches; the supply will never run short. Original Substance is alive with creative energy, and is constantly producing more forms. When the supply of building material is exhausted, more will be produced; when the soil is exhausted so that food stuffs and materials for clothing will no longer grow upon it, it will be renewed or more soil will be made. When all the gold and silver has been dug from the earth, and if man is still in such a stage of social development that he needs gold and silver, more will be produced from the Formless.

The Formless Stuff responds to the needs of man; it will not let him be without any good thing. This is true of man collectively. The race as a whole is always abundantly rich, and if individuals are poor, it is because they do not follow the Certain Way of doing things which makes the individual man rich.

The Formless Stuff is intelligent; it is stuff which thinks. It is alive, and is always impelled toward more life. It is the natural and inherent impulse of life to seek to live more; it is the nature of intelligence to enlarge itself, and of consciousness to seek to extend its boundaries and find fuller expression. The universe of forms has been made by Formless Living Substance, throwing itself into form in order to express itself more fully.

The universe is a great Living Presence, always moving inherently toward more life and fuller functioning. Nature is formed for the advancement of life; its impelling motive is the increase of life. For this cause, everything which can possibly minister to life is bountifully provided. As a result, there can be no lack, unless God contradicts himself and nullifies his own works.

Your Inalienable Right

Whatever may be said in praise of poverty, the fact remains that it is not possible to live a really complete or successful life unless one is rich. No man can rise to his greatest possible height in talent or soul development unless he has plenty of money; for to unfold the soul and to develop talent, one must have many things to use, and one cannot have these things unless he has money to buy them with.

A man develops in mind, soul, and body by making use of things, and society is so organized that man must have money in order to become the possessor of things; therefore, the basis of all advancement for man must be the Science of Getting Rich.

The object of all life is development; and everything that lives has an inalienable right to all the development it is capable of attaining. Man's right to life means his right to have the free and unrestricted use of all the things which may be necessary to his fullest mental, spiritual, and physical unfoldment; or, in other words, his right to be rich.

I shall not speak of riches in a figurative way; to be really rich does not mean to be satisfied or contented with a little. No man ought to be satisfied with a little if he is capable of using and enjoying more.

The purpose of Nature is the advancement and unfoldment of life; and every man should have all that can contribute to the power, elegance, beauty, and richness of life. To be content with less, therefore, is sinful.

The man who owns all he wants for the living of all the life he is capable of living is rich; and no man who has not plenty of money can have all he wants. Life has advanced so far, and become so complex, that even the most ordinary man or woman requires a great amount of wealth in order to live in a manner that even approaches completeness.

Every person naturally wants to become all that they are capable of becoming; this desire to realize innate possibilities is inherent in human nature. As a result, we cannot help wanting to be all that we can be.

Success in life is becoming what you want to be; you can become what you want to be only by making use of things, and you can have the free use of things only as you become rich enough to buy them. To understand the Science of Getting Rich is, therefore, the most essential of all knowledge.

There is nothing wrong in wanting to get rich. The desire for riches is really the desire for a richer, fuller, and more abundant life; and that desire is praise worthy. The man who does not desire to live more abundantly is abnormal, and so the man who does not desire to have money enough to buy all he wants is abnormal.

There are three motives for which we live; we live for the body, we live for the mind, and we live for the soul. No one of these is better or holier than the other; all are alike desirable, and no one of the three — body, mind, or soul — can live fully if either of the others is cut short of full life and expression. It is not right or noble to live only for the soul and deny mind or body; and it is wrong to live for the intellect and deny body or soul.

We are all acquainted with the loathsome consequences of living for the body and denying both mind and soul; and we see that real life means the complete expression of all that man can give forth through body, mind, and soul.

Whatever we can say, no man can be really happy or satisfied unless his body is living fully in every function, and unless the same is true of his mind and his soul.

Wherever there is unexpressed possibility, or function not performed, there is unsatisfied desire. Desire is possibility seeking expression, or function seeking performance.

Man cannot live fully in body without good food, comfortable clothing, and warm shelter; and without freedom from excessive toil. Rest and recreation are also necessary to his physical life.

Man cannot live fully in mind without books and time to study them, without opportunity for travel and observation, or without intellectual companionship. To live fully in mind, man must have intellectual recreations, and must surround himself with all the objects of art and beauty he is capable of using and appreciating.

To live fully in soul, man must have love; and love is denied expression by poverty. A man's highest happiness is found in the bestowal of benefits on those he loves; love finds its most natural and spontaneous expression in giving.

The man who has nothing to give cannot fill his place as a husband or father, as a citizen, or as a man. It is in the use of material things that a man finds full life for his body, develops his mind, and unfolds his soul. It is therefore of supreme importance to him that he should be rich.

It is perfectly right that you should desire to be rich. If you are a normal man or woman, you cannot help doing so. It is perfectly right, therefore, that you should give your best attention to studying the Science of Getting Rich, for it is the noblest and most necessary of all studies.

If you neglect this study, you are derelict in your duty to yourself, to God and to humanity; for, you can render to God and humanity no greater service than to make the most of yourself; and, as has been firmly established, you cannot make the most of yourself if you remain poor and beggarly.

To Be Continued...

I'm feeling blessed this morning. What about you?
