THE SCIENCE OF GETTING RICH
Today I wanted to break down my favourite old-school money manifesting book for you into modern day, applicable action steps.
But first- if you want to really get into the swing of manifestation- try my 10 day Manifestation Journaling Challenge!
You can find this book by Wallace D. Wattles here (it's my FAV).
Principle #1: 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 from things in his thought, and by impressing his thought upon formless substances can cause the thing he thinks about to be created.
Modern Day Terms: The entire universe and our realities are made up of one thing- energy. This energy is influenced by thoughts, beliefs, and emotions.
We can impress upon the Universe our desires- and can then cause the things we think about to come into our reality.
Principle #2: 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 the 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.
Modern Day Terms: In order for things to come into our reality- we must remember the abundant nature of the Universe- ie: there is no such thing as competition- there are endless resources at our disposal. Everything we desire exists or can be created.
In order for our desires to be relayed to the Universe- gratitude is the gateway of communication. When we are in pure gratitude, we are in a direct line to the Universe. Staying in a place of gratitude will keep us from getting in lack/scarcity and falling into competition and comparison.
Principle #3: Man must form a clear and definite metal image of the things he wishes to have, to do, or to become and he must hold his 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.
Modern Day Terms: Create a clear and definite mental picture of whatever it is that you want to have, do, or be- and hold it in your thoughts while combining it with gratitude that it's being delivered to you.
In your spare time, come back to this vision- meditate on it, visualize it, journal on it- keep it at the forefront of your mind.
Know that by frequently keeping this mental picture in your mind and remaining unwavering in faith and gratitude that it's coming- is what starts the process of manifestation.
Principle #4: 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 man 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 shall come to him, man must be active; and this activity can only consist of filling more than his present place. He must keep in mind the Purpose to get rich through the realization of his metal 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 man a use value in excess of the cash value he receives, so that each transaction makes for more life; and he must so hold the Advancing Thought that the impression of increase will be communicated to all with whom he comes in contact.
Modern Day Terms: All that you want will come to you, when you practice unwavering faith, and it will come to you through the established means how you have set yourself up to receive: ie: a business, a job, a raise, etc.
In order to receive, you must take action- and this action requires going above just the bare minimum. In order to grow, you need to expand from your present place. ie: If you keep doing the exact same thing and expecting different results- this isn't going to work. You must change who you are being while you do these things - ie: keeping in your mind a strong connection with your vision and being THAT version of you. Do all that you can each day, to the best of your ability. (more on this coming up).
Give more in value that you are receiving, ie: my courses are priced that I know those who take them will manifest much much more than the cost of the course.
When you are selling (or doing anything), be in the energy of advancement and holding the vision of where you are going, and this will be felt energetically by all that come in contact with you. Ie: I am a millionaire manifestation teacher when I sell, even if I'm only doing lower end of multiple 6 figures in reality at this time.
Principle #5: The men and woman who practice the foregoing instructions will certainty 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.
Modern Day Terms: You can have anything you desire by following these steps. What you receive will be a direct reflection of how strong your vision, how purposeful you are in all that you do, how unwavering you are in your faith, and the depth of your gratitude.
SUMMARY & APPLICAPLE STEPS:
1. Create a clear vision of what you desire: Write it out in detail, and create a clear mental image that signifies it as done that you can come back to again and again. Keep this in the forefront of your mind in everything that you do- even the most mundane tasks- do them as if this vision is already DONE.
2. Get Grateful: Spend multiple times a day (set an alarm on your phone) going into deep gratitude for everything that you do have, and then transition that into being grateful for whatever is coming (ie: your vision) feel the gratitude as if it's already done!
3. Do everything with Purpose: Do everything in your day from the energy of holding your vision, and knowing exactly where you are doing. Be the person that already has the desires- in all small things. The more tasks you can complete from the energy of BEING one who already has the desires (and is in gratitude) the faster they will appear in your reality
4. Take Action Where you Are: You can't change the past, and you can't act in the future. Do everything you can in the present moment to move from where you are, to where you want to be. This doesn't mean you have to burn out and create unnecessary stress- but it means to act with purpose (ie: holding your vision while you act) and taking the steps necessary to truly give more than you take. By thought you bring your desire to you, and by action you receive it.
5. Acting in a Certain Way: Wallace talks a lot about taking 'efficient action' and he doesn't mean it in the typical way that we view efficiency. He states that when you take more efficient action than inefficient- you have no choice but to get rich. The entire goal is to have more "efficient acts" than inefficient ones
Efficient Action = Putting power into each (even the smallest!) action that you take. You put power into a task by holding your vision while you are doing it and putting all of your faith and purpose into it.
For example, as I write this blog post- I keep the vision of my goal in my mind as I write it. I am writing this blog post (in my mind) from the house I want to live in, and the money I desire to have in my bank account. When I walk the dog, I am walking as if I already have that money and walking as if I am a wildly successful millionaire. When I'm showering or getting ready, I'm doing all things whilst holding my vision and knowing that this will soon be my reality.
If you take this on, this is the most life changing hack I've found in terms of manifestation. It's about finding something strong enough, that you do want to think about all day long and be in the energy of. You don't need to know how or when it's going to happen, just know that the more acts you can do from this energy- the faster you will see your world change!
Every efficient action that you take, is compounding. When you do one efficient act, you immediately draw in more success and more opportunities and it continues to compound as you go. Imagine it doubling every single time- bringing in more and more of your desires the more you can take action from this energy.
This concept is incredible powerful, and I believe one of the most important in the book. During the 90 days of the Money Challenge, I will teach you exactly how to get into the energy, maintain your faith and vision- and compound your results.
It's going to be absolutely life changing and you do not want to miss it!
