The Science of Being Great - Wallace D Wattles
‘How to Be a Genius - The Science of Being Great’ is a rare book that can change your perception of life …..
This is a big statement, but it is true. Although Wallace D Wattles wrote this book over 100 years ago, its powerful message is still changing lives today. There is actually a scientific way to consciously change your life. To our modern way of thinking Wattles language is old- fashioned and sometimes quaint – but it is the message we are after. He writes using Christian examples.
Maybe you do not believe in God, perhaps you are not a Christian, but do believe in a Higher Power and that there is a Great Supreme Being, a Universal Intelligence, one great, perfect, intelligent Principle of Life and Power, it doesn’t matter what you call it. Do be open minded when reading this book which was after all written one century ago. You will find universal truths and messages, even in the Christian examples used, and in Wattles’ discussions of Jesus as an example.
I think that the most telling point of all is that though Wallace Wattles lived a much of his life in poverty, his daughter Florence related that towards the end, because Wattles had constantly practiced the technique of creative visualization, his life changed and he became wealthy. She reported that: "He wrote almost constantly. It was then that he formed his mental picture. He saw himself as a successful writer, a personality of power, an advancing man, and he began to work toward the realization of this vision. He lived every page ... His life was truly the powerful life."
