About this audiobook

“FORMLESS INTELLIGENCE” STANDSREADY TO CARRY OUT YOUR WISHES
With this key principle, success pioneer Wallace D. Wattles (1860-1911) introduced the world to The Science of Getting Rich.

This edition of Wattles’ classic faithfully reproduces the author’s complete text as originally published in 1910. A new introduction by popular voice of esoteric ideas Mitch Horowitz contextualizes the historical background of the author and his pioneering publisher Elizabeth Towne.

Mitch’s Afternotes following each chapter amplify Wattles’ methods and provide powerful exercises and insights, including how to remove hidden blocks; experiments in “retrocausality;” receiving results through “established channels;” getting in touch with your most authentic desires, and ways to maintain a consistent mindset.

Wattles’ classic text teaches you:

• How ideas shape the physical world.
• Why creativity matters more than competition.
• Why one passionately felt aim is the foundation of all achievement.
• How your mental powers and practical abilities work together.
• How to think in a “Certain Way” to guarantee success.
• How the formless creative matter of life is acted on by your intelligence.

“The law of the Increase of Life,” Wattles writes, “is as mathematically certain in its operation as the law of gravitation; getting rich is an exact science.” In his brief yet seismically powerful volume, Wattles distills his insights—with the added benefits of the historical background and exercises found in this Maple Spring edition.

If you are new to The Science of Getting Rich or if you’re revisiting it for a refresher, here is the signature volume to experience.
