0·IntroductionThis edition keeps the promise the self-help shelf broke: no theory, no waiting, only the conclusions of science handed to you as a basis to act on.3 min

The Right to Be RichYou cannot unfold your soul on an empty purse, and the reason poverty stunts you is not the one moralists gave you.5 min

There is a Science of Getting RichThe rich do things in one Certain Way, on purpose or by accident, and the poor never stumble onto it no matter how hard they labor.6 min

Is Opportunity Monopolized?The fence around wealth is not what shut you out, and Wattles names the field still lying wide open while you look at the closed ones.7 min

The First Principle in the Science of Getting RichThere is a Formless Substance that takes the shape of the thought pressed into it, and your poverty is a form you keep pressing.9 min

Increasing LifeSomething living and intelligent runs through all things and through you, and it wants exactly one thing that changes how you may ask.9 min

How Riches Come to YouYou give every man more in use value than you take in cash, and this single reversal is how riches begin to move toward you.9 min

GratitudeGratitude is the wire that connects you to the Formless, and the moment you cut it the whole supply stops moving.6 min

Thinking in the Certain WayA vague picture transmits nothing; the man who built his house held it clear first, and most people fail here before they begin.7 min

How to Use the WillYou have no right to aim your will at anything outside yourself, and there is exactly one place it belongs instead.8 min

Further Use of the WillSpeak once of your old money troubles and you file yourself among the poor again, halting everything already coming your way.8 min

Acting in the Certain WayThought alone is the rock that wrecks the clever metaphysician; the missing half must be joined to it or nothing arrives.9 min

Efficient ActionDo all you can where you stand, because no man outgrows a place while leaving one task of it undone.7 min

Getting Into the Right BusinessPossessing the right faculty is not the whole of it, and the part left unsaid decides whether you stay in the wrong trade.7 min

The Impression of IncreaseYou reach the business you want through the one you already hate, worked in the Certain Way that others feel as increase.6 min

The Advancing ManPhysician, teacher, clergyman: give others the sense of larger life and they come to you, and wealth follows the drawing.7 min

Some Cautions, and Concluding ObservationsThey will scoff and demand the system change first; Wattles shows why that objection quietly keeps them poor.3 min

Summary of the Science of Getting RichThe whole method compressed to what you do in your leisure hours, and the one practice no stress can overstate.3 min

Thought is the only power which can produce tangible riches from the Formless Substance.

How To Manifest Your Desires

· 95 min read

You already possess the one faculty capable of reshaping every circumstance of your life, yet most people direct it by accident rather than by will. Neville Goddard restores imagination to its rightful throne. not as a pleasant diversion, but as the very mechanism by which the universe organises itself around the inner life of a person. The question this work leaves open is the one you will carry long after the final page: what are you, even now, silently assuming to be true?
