I just finished reading a book called "The science of getting rich" by Wallace D. Wattles. When I first read the title I thought to myself that there cannot possibly be a scientific method to achieving the things you want in life. But a few chapters into the book I was convinced that there really is a method and it can work for everyone who is sincere and follows his methods.

When I read the claim that his methods were guaranteed to work provided we followed instructions, my first thoughts were "ok, what kind of weird instructions will I have to follow in order to make my dreams come true?"

I soon discovered that most of the things that were required were basically just common sense. A lot of the things he mentions are things which I was already doing…perhaps not to the extent that he explains it, but the concept was in my mind and I understood it.

The main focus of the book is to get you to think positive no matter where we are. We need to think about how we will achieve our dreams and then act upon those thoughts. Also we need to act as though we have already achieved what we want and be thankful in advance for what we are about to receive.

Another major focus is that we need to welcome ALL events into our life…whether they seem to be good or bad. We should always be in a positive and thankful state of mind, knowing that in the end, even the seemingly negative forces against us will work out to be in our best interest.

I strongly agree with this because when I look back into my life I can name multiple situations where it seemed as though I had been terribly wronged, and all odds were against me. But when all was said and done I benefited greatly from each situation. And now when I fall upon hard times its easier for me to accept the seemingly negative or harmful events because I know in the end I will prosper from them in one way or another.

When things go against us or don't go as we planned, all we have to do is what we can do. That's all there is to it. Nothing more and nothing less. Just do everything with a thankful mind and do it to the best of your ability and everything will work out in your favor.

Never fight any given situation that you are in…simply go with the flow and make the best of it. It is once we start to fight that we loose the battle.

Throughout the book it is emphasized that we should NEVER compete against anyone in order to rise above them, or to become better than them. Instead we need to create our own world of success because there is plenty of room for ALL to be successful.

I highly recommend this book to anyone and everyone who has a dream which has not yet been fulfilled. Whether that dream is to prosper financially, spiritually, or just to achieve a certain goal, the principles of this book will help you to succeed.
