FREE SUCCESS EBOOK: Self Development and the Way to Power by L. W. Rogers

The universe is a training school for evolving intelligence – a vast gymnasium for the development of moral fibre. We become mentally clever by playing at the game of life. We match our courage against its adversities and acquire fearlessness. We encounter pain and sorrow and learn sympathy with suffering. It is only by such experiences that we can grow to rounded measure. It is only in an environment thus adapted to our spiritual development that we can evolve the latent powers within us.

Happy Monday, all!

I thought it might be a good idea to take a break from Professor Hill's series, The Law of Success in Sixteen Lessons.

Today's addition to The Success Manual Free Download Library is a great, easy-reading - but highly powerful - Success Manual: "Self Development and the Way to Power" by L. W. Rogers.

I really like Self Development and the Way to Power, as it provides very practical teachings about the Laws of Success.

When it comes to attaining Success, Prosperity and Wealth, it is easy to become impatient. We read and study the great Success Manual Classics, we listen to the great Teachers, Instructors, Speakers and Coaches of our time, we listen, study and watch various programs and courses, and yet, when we fail to realize instant Success or manifest instant Prosperity, it is so easy to fall into the trap of either doubting our own (or God's) abilities, or simply giving up. Patience, in every respect, is key.

Somethings - particularly Success, Prosperity and Wealth - rarely sprout and mature overnight. We must work at it. And, we must not fall into the trap of believing that it can be attained or achieved in short periods of time and with relatively little effort.

We must also be prepared to do our fair share of fumbling, stumbling and running into temporary defeats. That is all part of the process, and the most Successful individuals are those who "failed" the most.

Self Development and the Way to Power is a great instructive that helps keep matters in perspective. It is not lengthy, so download your copy today and read this one up right away!

Until next time, dear Friend . . .

Peace Out, and - Namasté!

To your Health, Wealth, Prosperity and Success,

Richard

Success Key: The Law of Compensation, Part I

Richard Catalina, Jr. — Tue, 08 Feb 2011 14:52:47 +0000

"The law is this: We reap what we sow. When you select a rule of conduct which you use to guide yourself in your transactions with others, you will be fair and just if you know that you are setting in motion a power that will run its course (for good or bad) in the lives of others, returning finally to help or hinder you according to its nature." - Napoleon Hill

Success Key: The Law of Compensation, Part I

[Ed. Note: Today’s Post is Part I of III on the highly crucial Law of Compensation. Part I of this essay defines the Law, Part II examines the nature of the Law in greater detail, and Part III explores how we may implement the Law in our daily lives to our advantage and benefit].

The Law of Compensation, Part I

The Law of Compensation: Defined

In the Success Post that accompanies “The Law of Success – Lesson Nine: The Habit of Doing More Than Paid For” by Napoleon Hill (Posted in The Success Manual Free Download Library and The Napoleon Hill Success Library on January 22, 2011), we discussed, among other matters, The Law of Compensation.

Interestingly, after that Post was published, I came across several references to The Law of Compensation, which provided me with the Opportunity to further reflect upon the Law – what it is, how it works and how we may better invoke it to our benefit. That reflection and study is embodied in this Post and the two to follow.

The Law of Compensation is such a simple law; yet, it works with amazing precision in our Lives – each and every day.

What exactly is the Law of Compensation?

Quite simply, it is that principle that “we reap what we sow.” As St. Paul stated approximately two thousand years ago: “Whatsoever a man sows, that shall he also reap.” Gal. 6:7.

In this case, the sowing concerns the Garden of Thought, Emotion and Action. What we think, how we feel and how we act all determines what is returned to us – with mathematical precision.

In his master classic, Working with the Law, Raymond Holliwell defines it thusly: “Compensation means equal returns for that which is given; it means a balance of that quality or service that is extended to another . . . You can only build on that which you create.”

It is also known as Karma and “what goes around, comes around.”

Or, as two, young Brits in the 1960s lyrically penned it, “And in the end, the Love you take is equal to the Love you make.” Perfectly stated. (“The End” is a song by The Beatles composed by Paul McCartney (credited to Lennon/McCartney) for the album Abbey Road. It was the last song recorded collectively by all four of the Beatles, and is the final song of a 16-minute medley that dominates side two of the LP version of the album.)

Throughout his illustrious career as a preeminent Success Teacher, Napoleon Hill often referred to the Law of Compensation as “the Golden Rule” (he also referred to it, as noted in Lesson Nine of The of Success in Sixteen Lessons, as The Law of Compensation). In an article in Hill’s Success Unlimited magazine, Napoleon Hill explained it thusly:

“Inherent in the principle of applied faith is the sustained application of the Golden Rule in your daily life. For more than four thousand years, men have been preaching the Golden Rule as a suitable rule of conduct, but, unfortunately, the world has accepted the letter while totally missing the spirit of this universal injunction. We have accepted the Golden Rule merely as a sound rule of ethical conduct but we have failed to understand the law upon which it is based.

“The law is this: We reap what we sow. When you select a rule of conduct which you use to guide yourself in your transactions with others, you will be fair and just if you know that you are setting in motion a power that will run its course (for good or bad) in the lives of others, returning finally to help or hinder you according to its nature.

“It is your privilege to deal unjustly with others, but if you understand the basis for the Golden Rule, you must know that your unjust dealings will come home to roost. The law does not mean merely the flinging back upon you your acts of injustice and unkindness toward others; it goes much further and returns to you the results of every thought you release.

“Therefore, not only is it advisable to 'do unto others as you wish them to do unto you,' but you must 'think of others as you wish them to think of you,' to avail yourself fully of the benefits of this great universal law.”

Similarly, Holliwell further notes that, “Sooner or later we must come face to face with this Law of Compensation, and inevitably, our own comes to us – and only what is our own.”

Because the Law of Compensation works to equally balance our “reaping” with our “sowing,” the Law may be invoked with accuracy and precision. As Raymond Holliwell again profoundly instructs in Working with the Law:

“The Law that we reap what we sow is mathematically accurate. Each experience through which we pass operates ultimately for our good. If we attract the unpleasant, it is often because some dormant or neglected phase of our nature needs to be awakened and developed; also, we learn from the experience to create something better. Hence the degree of contentment and satisfaction attained in whatever sphere of life we may dwell is largely dependent upon our ability to use constructively the experiences of life; for, in every case, the Law of Attraction will only bring what may serve us in our upward development. To interpret this Law in a simple form, it should be stated that whatever we attract, we require and whatever we need is always good. This is a correct attitude to adopt, because all experience is for our good and we must be able to see it in that light.”

Consider the last two sentences of this passage from Holliwell again: “To interpret this Law in a simple form, it should be stated that whatever we attract, we require and whatever we need is always good. This is a correct attitude to adopt, because all experience is for our good and we must be able to see it in that light.”

If we can truly comprehend the full meaning and import of what Holliwell states here, the magnificence of the Law of Compensation cannot be overstated. Whatever we attract, we require. Whatever we require (need) is Good. Therefore, ALL experience (what we attract) is for our Good.

God seeks to draw out the Good in us through each and every experience – the Desirable and the Undesirable. As such, under the Law of Compensation, every experience is not only a manifestation (Effect) of what we have sowed (Cause) in the past (Result), every experience is a Divine Opportunity for us to GROW and PROSPER - Spiritually, Emotionally, Intellectually, Physically and Financially. In fact, I would take this a step further and submit that every experience is a Divine-Mandated Opportunity to GROW and PROSPER.

In that sense, the Law of Compensation is more than just “what goes around, comes around.” The Law of Compensation is our Infinite Creator providing us with what we need.

“We must be able to see it in that light.”

Free Success Ebook: “The Law of Success – Lesson Ten: Pleasing Personality” by Napoleon Hill

Richard Catalina, Jr. — Fri, 28 Jan 2011 03:49:56 +0000

Do NOT draw the conclusion that any sort of cheap flattery will take the place of genuine heart interest. Understand the real psychology upon which this lesson is based, and make it your business to study other people closely enough to find something about them or their work that you really admire. Only in this way can you develop a personality that will be irresistibly attractive . . . Cheap flattery has just the opposite effect to that of constituting an attractive personality. It repels instead of attracting. It is so shallow that even the ignorant easily detect it. – Napoleon Hill, “The Law of Success in Sixteen Lessons – Lesson Ten: Pleasing Personality”

Moving right along in our Law of Success series by Professor Hill, we come now to Lesson Ten: Pleasing Personality.

This is an often overlooked Key to Success; yet so few actually focus on this important character element. As Professor Hill states in Lesson Ten, "Throughout this course on the Law of Success, you will not find a single new principle; every one of them is as old as civilization itself; yet you will find but few people who seem to understand how to apply them."

We have all heard the saying, "You attract more bees with honey than you do with vinegar," but we still use vinegar. And then, we complain when we fail to attract any bees.

It must be important. Dale Carnegie wrote an entire book on the subject, How to Make Friends and Influence People, and built an entire industry around the book. In this regard - as to the connection between an attractive, pleasing personality and achieving Success - Napoleon Hill states the following:

We are all alike in this respect – we will listen with intense interest to those who have the tact to talk to us about that which lies closest to our hearts; and then, out of a sense of reciprocity, we will also listen with interest when the speaker finally switches the conversation to the subject which lies closest to his or her heart; and, at the end, we will not only “sign on the dotted line,” but we will say, “What a wonderful personality!”

Professor Hill makes the additional observation:

We look at a successful man in the hour of his triumph, and wonder how he did it, but we overlook the importance of analyzing his methods and we forget the price he had to pay in careful, well organized preparation which had to be made before he could reap the fruits of his efforts.

We must, in order to achieve our Goals and attain Success, employ a genuine interest in those around us. We must offer value with a genuine, heart-felt interest in helping others. Zig Ziglar noted that the level of our Success will be based on the nature, level and extent that we help others achieve Success (get what they want/need). Think about it; it's true.

The key here, from what I take in all that I have read and studied on this precise issue, is that we must be sincere and genuine. If we are only in it for ourselves, we can only fool others - and the Universe - for so long. When that happens, we find ourselves playing the game back on the competitive plane, and that isn't so fun. The creative plan is a much better place to work.

Until next time, dear Friend . . .

Peace Out, and - Namasté!

To your Health, Wealth, Prosperity and Success,

"There are more than a score of sound reasons why you should develop the habit of performing more service and better service than that for which you are paid, despite the fact that a large majority of the people are not rendering such service . . . When you do only that for which you are paid, there is nothing out of the ordinary to attract favorable comment about the transaction; but, when you willingly do more than that for which you are paid, your action attracts the favorable attention of all who are affected by the transaction, and goes another step toward establishing a reputation that will eventually set the Law of Increasing Returns to work in your behalf, for this reputation will create a demand for your services, far and wide." - Napoleon Hill, "The Law of Success in Sixteen Lessons - Lesson Nine: The Habit of Doing More Than Paid For"

Class is back in session - Welcome!

Today's addition to The Success Manual Free Download Library and The Napoleon Hill Success Library is Lesson NINE of The Law of Success in Sixteen Lessons: The Habit of Doing More Than Paid For.

I STRONGLY believe in The Habit of Dong More Than Paid For - of providing GREATER value and service in exchange for the fees or payment received. I have personally practiced this law for many, many years and I can attest to its amazing Power. Frankly, it works - and it works quite well.

Washington Weather Observatory looming high in the background, unfrozen water flows at the Lakes of the Clouds in this spectacular winter scene exactly one year ago today.

There are two primary laws invoked when one provides greater value (of service or goods) in exchange for the payment received therefor. First, is the Law of Compensation; second, is the Law of Increasing Returns. Both Laws are premised upon the "Law of Laws" - the Law of Cause and Effect.

The Law of Compensation holds that whenever you render value through service, you will be justly compensated. Perhaps you may not be compensated immediately, but you will be compensated - justly - in kind and in time. What you sow, you reap. This Law works day in and day out in our lives, whether we know it or not, and applies not just to rendering service for payment, but to every aspect of our lives. It is pure "cause and effect."

The Law of Increasing Returns applies specifically to instances when we render service (or sell product) of GREATER VALUE than what we receive in exchange as payment for that service or product. When we do this, an amazing thing happens: we receive back not just the "greater value" of the service we rendered, but we receive back even more!

Let's use a simplistic - but accurately demonstrative - example.

Suppose you agree to perform a particular service to a client or customer and the fair value for your service is $500. You and the client/customer agree upon the compensation and you commence the project.

Now, if you completed the project, and in doing so, rendered $500 worth of service, you would have performed exactly as mutually agreed upon and your compensation would be a fair exchange of value. Both parties receive exactly that to which was bargained for and mutually agreed upon.

But, suppose in copmpleting the project, you perform some extra service - service above and beyond what the client/customer is expecting. You "go the extra mile," as some like to say. And, in doing so, you expect no additional compensation from the client/customer. As Professor Hill states, you are "doing more than paid for."

When all is said and done, you perform an extra $200 worth of service for your client/customer. She notices what you have done and is ECSTATIC! But, she can only pay you the $500, and rightly, that is all you should expect - for that was the agreed upon exchange of value for rendering your service.

Under the Law of Compensation, you can expect to receive back - at some time - the $200 in value for the extra service that you rendered. Perhaps your client/customer will, voluntarily, send you the money without you asking. Or, it may come in another form. The bottom line is that under the Law of Compensation, you WILL receive back that $200.

However, the Law of Increasing Returns is also working, and under that Law, you will receive back MORE than the extra $200 in service that you rendered. You may receive back, perhaps, $500 or even $1,000 in value. That client may have been so pleased with the additional value of service that you provided that she tells her clients and a month later you pick up new clients offering you more money!

One cannot predict precisely how the Law of Increasing Returns will manifest the increasing returns, but it does. I know - I have personally experienced it hundreds of times and it works - like clockwork.

In fact, it works so well, that the Law is incorporated into my business model. Some think that I am nuts - that I should be charging every penny (and more) for everything that I do. But, experience has taught me that is not the way to build goodwill.

Provide Value above and beyond what is expected. And, provide Value FIRST before you are engaged for your services.

If you follow these rules, I absolutely guarantee spectacular results.

Here is what Professor Hill states on the subject:

We will now analyze the law upon which this entire lesson is founded, namely –

THE LAW OF INCREASING RETURNS!

With this vital “tip” from Nature, which we may gather from the wheat fields, let us proceed to appropriate this Law of Increasing Returns and learn how to apply it to the service we render, to the end that it may yield returns in excess of and out of proportion to the effort put forth.

When you do only that for which you are paid, there is nothing out of the ordinary to attract favorable comment about the transaction; but, when you willingly do more than that for which you are paid, your action attracts the favorable attention of all who are affected by the transaction, and goes another step toward establishing a reputation that will eventually set the Law of Increasing Returns to work in your behalf, for this reputation will create a demand for your services, far and wide.

If you carry out this experiment in the proper attitude of mind, you will discover that which all others who have become familiar with the law upon which it is based have discovered; namely, that –

You can no more render service without receiving compensation than you can withhold the rendering of it without suffering the loss of reward.

“Cause and effect, means and ends, seed and fruit, cannot be severed,” says Emerson; “for the effect already blooms in the cause, the end pre-exists in the means, the fruit in the seed.”

Success Key: Take Annual Inventory of Yourself

Richard Catalina, Jr. — Mon, 03 Jan 2011 18:29:02 +0000

"It is one thing to want – everyone wants more – but it is something entirely different to be Worth more! Many people mistake their “wants” for their “just dues.” Your financial requirements or wants have nothing whatever to do with your Worth. Your value is established entirely by your ability to render useful service or your capacity to induce others to render such service." - Napoleon Hill, "Think and Grow Rich"

Success Key: Take Annual Inventory of Yourself - 28 Questions You Should Answer

[Editor's Note: I promised a "don't miss" post for New Years Eve on "Resentment and Forgiveness," which I did not post after all. For several reasons, which will be disclosed in the post when it is published, I decided to wait until a later date. I trust that you will find it in your heart to forgive me - please! When the article does post, I think you will find it worthwhile ;-)]

Happy New Year to everyone! Thank you for joining us and for making 2010 a GREAT year for The Success Manual!

Today's post is a Success Passage (and Success Key) taken directly from Napoleon Hill's Think and Grow Rich. The Passage is from the Chapter on Organized Planning and consists of a 28-question Self-Analysis Questionnaire for Personal Inventory.

Okay, I realize it would have been best to post this Self-Analysis Questionnaire last week, but better late than never and let us remember - each day is a new start. There is, as I have often stated here, nothing magical about the start of a new calendar year. We get a chance each and every day to begin our lives anew and when better to start than right now.

The Annual Self-Analysis Questionnaire for Personal Inventory: How well do you score? Take Napoleon Hill's Personal Inventory Survey and find out!

A critical point to be made about this Self-Analysis Questionnaire is to undertake it with total, absolute and brutal honesty - something that is always difficult when it comes to ourselves. Let's face it - it is easy to see the faults of others (the splinter in their eye) and not our own personal defects (the beam in our eye). The Ego detests being wrong and considers itself the center of the Universe (or so I have been told or read somewhere). In order for this Personal Inventory to be effective - and why do it if you don't want results - it is imperative that we lay aside our personal biases and dig deep - real, real deep.

The Truth will set you Free. So, suck it up for some brief pain in order to obtain an honest assessment that will enable you to make real, substantial positive gains in your journey to Succeed.

"Your annual self-analysis should be made at the end of each year, so you can include in your New Year’s Resolutions any improvements which the analysis indicates should be made. Take this inventory by asking yourself the following questions, and by checking your answers with the aid of someone who will not permit you to deceive yourself as to their accuracy." - Napoleon Hill, "Think and Grow Rich"

Lastly, while Napoleon Hill's Self Inventory Questionnaire is geared towards "Personal Services" (as a means for determining your "market value"), the analysis is not limited to that purpose; it may be used for measuring any aspect of Personal Development, Self Improvement and Success Achievement.

Use it wise, grasshopper . . . .

We have a TON planned for 2011, so hold on tight. This is going to be a GREAT YEAR and we hope you join us for the ride. Fasten your seatbelts, it promises to be a wild ride . . .

Until next time.

Peace Out, and - Namasté!

To your Health, Wealth, Prosperity and Success,

Richard

Take Inventory of Yourself: 28 Questions You Should Answer

It is one thing to want – everyone wants more – but it is something entirely different to be Worth more! Many people mistake their “wants” for their “just dues.” Your financial requirements or wants have nothing whatever to do with your Worth. Your value is established entirely by your ability to render useful service or your capacity to induce others to render such service.

Annual self-analysis is an essential in the effective marketing of personal services, as is annual inventory in merchandising. Moreover, the yearly analysis should disclose a decrease in faults, and an increase in Virtues. One goes ahead, stands still, or goes backward in life. One’s object should be, of course, to go ahead. Annual self analysis will disclose whether advancement has been made, and if so, how much. It will also disclose any backward steps one may have made. The effective marketing of personal services requires one to move forward even if the progress is slow.

Your annual self-analysis should be made at the end of each year, so you can include in your New Year’s Resolutions any improvements which the analysis indicates should be made. Take this inventory by asking yourself the following questions, and by checking your answers with the aid of someone who will not permit you to deceive yourself as to their accuracy.

Self-Analysis Questionnaire for Personal Inventory

Have I attained the goal which I established as my objective for this year? (You should work with a definite yearly objective to be attained as a part of your major life objective).

Have I delivered Service in the greatest possible Quantity of which I was capable?
Has the Spirit of my conduct been Harmonious, and Cooperative at all times?
Have I permitted the Habit of Procrastination to decrease my efficiency, and if so, to what extent?
Have I improved my Personality, and if so, in what ways?
Have I been Persistent in following my plans through to completion?
Have I reached Decisions Promptly and Definitely on all occasions?

Thanksgiving and the Art of Gratitude

Richard Catalina, Jr. — Fri, 26 Nov 2010 18:36:05 +0000

The Thanksgiving holiday is grounded in deep tradition, originating hundreds of years ago when early settlers of this country, escaping from religious persecution in their European homelands, gathered with native Americans to partake in their annual rites of feast and celebration to “give thanks” after bountiful harvests of grains, vegetables and fish. The symbolism is as profound and meaningful today as it was in the 1600s. We gather together, family and friends, to enjoy the abundance in our lives and to give thanks. It is as simple as that.

Success Key: Thanksgiving and the Art of Gratitude

Here in the United States, Americans gathered with family and friends yesterday, and, indeed for this entire four-day weekend, to celebrate the most cherished of our country recognized holidays: Thanksgiving.

The Thanksgiving holiday is grounded in deep tradition, originating hundreds of years ago when early settlers of this country, escaping from religious persecution in their European homelands, gathered with native Americans to partake in their annual rites of feast and celebration to “give thanks” after bountiful harvests of grains, vegetables and fish.

The symbolism is as profound and meaningful today as it was in the 1600s. We gather together, family and friends, to enjoy the abundance in our lives and to give thanks. It is as simple as that.

The heart of Thanksgiving – a true recognition of the abundance of which we have been blessed and to give thanks to our Creator for all of the good in our lives – is a powerful mental and spiritual attitude. Much has been written on the “attitude of gratitude” on this site and elsewhere. Being grateful for all that is good in our lives, despite the fact that there may simultaneously exist undesirable circumstances and events, is immensely powerful and empowering. When we focus – and give thanks – for that which is good, we shift our paradigm from that which is “bad” (or, more accurately, from that which we perceive as “bad,” for, as Shakespeare stated, what makes something good or bad is only our saying so), to the “good.”

Seeing (and being grateful for) the good in life is a major paradigm shift. We are all aware of the oft-repeated adage that we may either look at the “glass half empty” or the “glass half full.”

And so, on Thanksgiving Day, Americans from all walks of life gather together, refrain from looking at the glass “half empty,” and express, to the best of our abilities, true gratitude for all that we have been blessed.

Thanksgiving is a beautiful holiday.

But, how many of us return to our old ways after the holiday? Indeed, the day after Thanksgiving has been named “Black Friday,” in reference to the mad, insane shopping and sales phenomena that takes place on that day in anticipation of the Christmas holy day yet a month away (Thanksgiving always takes place on the fourth Thursday of November, so the following day – Black Friday – is always on a Friday).

Black Friday is insane. Stores open at 3:00 and 4:00 am. In fact, one famous department store chain opened at midnight! Traffic is a mess, as a significant portion of the population takes to the roads to hit their favorite stores looking for bargains. Customers begin lining up at 2:00 or 3:00 in the morning – some never even taking time to rest or sleep after their Thanksgiving feast! Patience in many tends to run short. Tempers occasionally flare when customers compete for limited stock (or at least at the bargain prices).

Other than the dinner leftovers in the refrigerators, Thanksgiving is already forgotten within the following 24 hours.

Don’t get me wrong – I love the excitement of the entire weekend and the anticipation of the Christmas holy season, too. Even the insanity of Black Friday has a certain appeal, as we are now into the “official Christmas holiday (commercial) season.” In fact, many of my family members partake in the annual Black Friday shopping ritual because, in addition to obtaining great bargains on items that may not be available in a couple of weeks, they simply find it fun. They enjoy the madness, “go with the flow,” and don’t take the extravaganza too seriously.

Yet, I question what happens to our so-called “Attitude of Gratitude” from the previous day.

We need to maintain, and strengthen, our Gratitude EVERY day. It is easy for just about everyone to find it in their hearts to give thanks and express some level of Gratitude on Thanksgiving Day. It comes easy, it comes naturally. It is an annual tradition and ritual, and consciously or not, we prepare for it emotionally and spiritually. When Thanksgiving Day arrives, we have been so conditioned over the years, that it is simply natural to put aside or trials, tribulations and differences, gather with family and friends, feast and give thanks.

Can we cultivate that natural flow of unconditional expression of Gratitude every day? Yes. Do we? Not really. But, what if we did . . . ?

Honest and sincere Gratitude, like many character virtues – most obvious being Patience – MUST be practiced in order for us to become Grateful. The only way to become a Patient person is to practice Patience, particularly when the events and circumstances in our lives seemingly compel anything but Patience. The only way to become a Peaceful and Serene individual is to practice Peacefulness and Serenity, particularly when the events and circumstances in our lives seemingly compel anything but Peacefulness and Serenity. The only way to become a Kind and Loving person is to practice Kindness and to Love, particularly when the events and circumstances in our lives seemingly compel anything but being Kind and giving Love.

And so on and so forth.

Gratitude is more than an “Attitude.” It is an Art. Attitudes can come and go; they are fleeting. But, when practiced, we may transform that which changes like the weather into that which is stable and lasting. Maintaining a true and lasting state of honest and sincere Gratitude is an Art to be practiced and cultivated if we are ever to reap the fruit.

I urge you to practice and develop the Art of Gratitude. It takes time, effort, and of course, Patience. Take time, as much as possible, to reflect and meditate (usually in solitude, if only for a few minutes at a time) on that for which you really are Grateful. Read Success Manuals that teach and expound upon the Power of Gratitude. Write your “Gratitudes” in your personal Success Manual Journal – often (daily, if you can). When you find yourself overwhelmed with negativity of any kind, you must find time to stop and reflect and “break that funk.” Repetition, repetition, repetition. That is how the Art is developed.

Live in Thanksgiving everyday, for everyday that we live, we must be Thankful. Thanksgiving should not be a one-day annual event.

The true Student of Success will come to understand and realize the miraculous Power and Art of Gratitude and the amazing impact an inner State of Gratitude has on the external events and circumstances of our lives.

Do you seek Success in your Life? Start by being Grateful for that which you have been blessed. Abundance, Prosperity and Success abound, but you will fail to see, realize and experience the bounty if you cannot, or will not, work with the Law of Gratitude. The Power of Gratitude cannot be overstated.

Live the Art of Gratitude.

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone – in the U.S. and all around the world.

Until next time . . . .

Peace Out, and - Namasté!

To your Health, Wealth, Prosperity and Success,

The Success Manual Team

Foreword

The Wattles Prosperity Bible

A Five Volume Compilation of the Works of Wallace D. Wattles

Richard A. Catalina, Jr., Esq.

When Wallace Delois Wattles was growing up in the post-Civil War America, the country was undergoing major changes in the political, economic and social arenas.

While the South was rebuilding its battered infrastructure, the North, where Wattles lived, was prospering, both industrially and agriculturally. This period, known as the Second Industrial Revolution, began in the mid-19^th century, with the growth and expansion of steel, petroleum, as well as chemical and electrical sectors; railways and steam ship industry also thrived in the still- young nation.

In fact, by the time the 19^th century came to a close and the new one dawned, corporate giants such as U.S. Steel and General Electric spawned the legendary tycoons by the names of Cornelius Vanderbilt, Andrew Carnegie, John D. Rockefeller, Andrew P. Mellon, and J.P. Morgan, among other renowned and often notorious wheelers and dealers of that era.

The extravagant lifestyles of these super-rich industrialists and financiers – which prompted Mark Twain to coin the phrase “Gilded Age” to describe the excesses of the wealthy people in the second half of the 1800s – did not, however, reflect the grim living conditions of the working class. Historical records show that in 1890, when Wattles was 30, 11 million of America’s 12 million families earned less than $1,200 a year, with the average annual income of $380, well below the poverty line.

Wallace Delois Wattles: Law of Attraction Sage, Author and Teacher and Master of Success and Prosperity. Mr. Wattles' teachings were a driving force behind Rhonda Byrne's book, "The Secret." How much so? The first time she read "The Science of Getting Rich," she cried!

Not much is known today about Wattles’ life and family, but from the information that is available to us we can surmise that he was born into that modest – not to say poverty-stricken – milieu like the vast majority of his countrymen.

We cannot say with any certainty that he was inspired by the well-heeled tycoons of the era, but we do know that he turned the art of getting rich into a science.

His philosophy about wealth is succinctly summed up in this quote: “Whatever may be said in praise of poverty, the fact remains that it is not possible to live a really complete or successful life unless one is rich.”

*******

Putting together Wattles’ biography is a challenging task because very little is known about him. Whether this dearth was a matter of modesty and humility or merely poor record-keeping we cannot guess, but anyone attempting to research Wattles’ life will hit a brick wall riddled with many gaps and holes. For instance, his schooling remains a mystery, as does his family. We know that he had a daughter, Florence, but have no information about his wife. We also know that early on he worked on a farm and later as a lecturer in Indiana, as well as in some capacity at a Methodist Church, but have no clue about any other jobs he might have held. We know he died young – at 51 – of “frail” health, but possess no details of what illness he suffered from. He was a prolific writer, publishing scores of articles, essays and books. Many of the articles and essays were published as compilations; others as single articles. However, specific details as to many of his published works are few.

What little we do know about his childhood and later life can be gleaned from the letters Florence wrote to Wattles’ publisher, Elizabeth Towne. From those letters we can construct a sketchy portrait of a compassionate and caring man of profound convictions, and a prolific writer who believed his ideas would transform people’s lives.

Although Wattles remains – given the scarcity of information about him – somewhat of an enigma, he wrote some of the most powerful self-help books ever published. As a matter of fact, the young farm boy grew up to be a trailblazer in the area of wealth-building, personal empowerment and success, a field that, while in its infancy during Wattles’ lifetime, blossomed as the “New Thought” era, and which today is a billion-dollar industry. Indeed, the “self improvement” market in the U.S. alone is estimated as worth more than $13.9 billion in 2010.[1]

******

In a way, Wallace Delois Wattles’ life is a quintessential rags-to-riches story.

He was born in 1860 in Illinois, and later lived in Indiana. According to the 1880 US Federal Census, young Wallace was probably the only child of a gardener and a housewife. He lived with his parents on a farm in Nunda Township, McHenry County, Illinois. With little formal education, he spent his early years toiling as a farm laborer. In those days, life on a farm was dismal, requiring long hours of backbreaking labor. Even though new farm equipment was invented and introduced during that period, horses, oxen and people still provided the power that fueled the machines.

Eking out a living from a farm, which relied heavily on weather-dependant crops, was a challenge then, as it is, though maybe to a lesser degree, now. We do not know for sure whether this was the only work Wattles did in his youth, but his life at the time is reported to have been one of poverty, hardship, and failure. We will never know for certain, but perhaps this strife had sparked Wattles’ desire to become successful and rich and to understand proper and healthy living.

One of Florence’s messages to Mrs. Towne provides some insight into what drove her father to overcome his humble beginnings and ultimately led him to pen a series of highly successful self-help books: “For years his life was cursed by poverty and the fear of poverty. He was always scheming and planning to get for his family those things, which make the abundant life possible.”

*******

In 1896, the 36-year-old Midwesterner attended a “convention of reformers” in Chicago, where he met George Davis Herron. Two years Wattles’ junior, Herron was a controversial Congregational Church minister and professor of Applied Christianity at Grinnell College in Grinnell, Iowa, where he attracted attention for his radical religious views, namely a new philosophy called Christian Socialism. A movement that originated in the mid-19th-century Europe, it combined the fundamentals of Socialism with the principles of Christianity as a means of helping the poor.

Florence wrote to Mrs. Towne that her father caught Herron’s social vision. “I shall never forget the morning he came home,” she related. “It was Christmas. Mother had put her last dollar into a cuff box and we had placed it beneath an evergreen branch which served for our Christmas tree and which we had illuminated with tallow candles and strung with popcorn. Finally Father came. With that beautiful smile he praised the tree, said the cuff box was just what he had been wanting - and took us all in his arms to tell us of the wonderful social message of Jesus, the message which he later embodied in ‘A New Christ.’ From that day until his death he worked unceasingly to realize the glorious vision of human brotherhood.”

According to Florence, at one time her father had held a position in the Methodist Church, but was fired because of his “heresy,” possibly the Christian Socialism views, which were not quite compatible with the mainstream Christianity. Two of his books, “A New Christ” and “Jesus: The Man and His Work” focused on Christianity from a Socialist perspective. As a matter of fact, Wattles was so involved in the movement, that he twice ran as a Socialist candidate for two public offices: in the Eighth Congressional District in 1908, and two years later, for the office of Prosecuting Attorney for Indiana’s Madison County’s 50th court district. He lost both elections, but Florence became a delegate to the Socialist Party National Committee in 1912 and 1915.

*******

Another new spiritual movement that Wattles embraced with zeal and conviction, and which had, in large measure, influenced his thinking and writing, was called New Thought. This movement started to emerge in the second half of the 19^th century, at about the same time as Christian Socialism.

This was a turning point for Wattles, the moment that likely re-defined and re-directed his life to some degree.

The movement, which remains active to this day, promotes the idea that all of life’s circumstances and events, whether positive or negative, be they physical or mental in nature, originate in the mind as a consequence of our thinking and beliefs, and, therefore, “right thinking” can change our lives positively.

Like many thinkers and philosophers from a variety of churches and religious denominations, and even some secular groups and individuals as well, Wattles became a proponent of these metaphysical tenets relating to the power of positive thinking, the law of attraction, creative visualization, and other essential life forces that formed the basis of his beliefs and writings. Today the self-improvement and personal growth industry is a thriving, multi-billion-dollar sector, but in Wattles’ time it was still in its nascent stages. The New Thought movement, however, marked an important milestone in the development of the self-help phenomenon.

Because of the unbridled optimism, positive energy, and personal empowerment inherent to the New Thought principles, Wattles, along with his contemporaries like Napoleon Hill, Frank Channing Haddock, Thomas Troward, William Walker Atkinson, and, a bit later, Dale Carnegie, had become one of the earliest self-help pioneers – people who believed in improving themselves and all the aspects of their lives by harvesting their spiritual and inner strengths. Essentially, the mind can achieve whatever it can conceive.

Wattles’ brand of motivational self-improvement philosophy is best expressed in this quote of his: “The scientific use of thought consists in forming a clear and distinct mental image of what you want; in holding fast to the purpose to get what you want; and in realizing with grateful faith that you do get what you want.”

Wattles discovered an outlet for his ideas in Nautilus, a magazine for New Thought writers founded in 1898 by Elizabeth Towne. In it, Wattles found a fitting forum to advance his ideas and foster his writing skills. As Florence explained: “When we came to Elwood (Indiana) three years ago, Father began a Sunday night lectureship in Indianapolis. This was our only source of income. Later he began to write for Nautilus and to word out his own philosophy. He wrote almost constantly. Then it was 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.”

Wattles applied the New Thought principles to his own life through personal experimentation. For example, he tested some of the health and food fads fashionable at that time, such as the “No Breakfast Plan,” before encouraging his readers to try out his theories on themselves.

How a poor man with little education was able to form such a far-reaching vision and bring it to fruition with numerous books remains a mystery. What is certain is that his works, at least by some assessments, are among the most powerful personal improvement books ever written.

While Wattles authored numerous works, his best-known are likely the trilogy of “The Science of Being Rich” (1910), “The Science of Being Well” (1910) and “The Science of Being Great” (1911). All three are fitting examples of self-improvement and personal success theories he had become known for, as demonstrated in Florence’s letter to Mrs. Towne: “The supreme faith of the man never left him; never for a moment did he lose confidence in the power of the master Intelligence to right every wrong and to give to every man and woman his or her share of the good things of life.”

*******

“The ownership of money and property comes as a result of doing things in a certain way. Those who do things in this certain way, whether on purpose or accidentally, get rich. Those who do not do things in this certain way, no matter how hard they work or how able they are, remain poor.”

The above quote is a paragraph from Chapter 2 of Wattles’ “The Science of Getting Rich,” a forerunner of every personal finance and self-help book ever written. His statement that this pragmatic text is “intended for the men and women whose most pressing need is for money; who wish to get rich first, and philosophize afterward,” rings as true in the second decade of the 21^st century as it did when it was first published 100 years ago.

Incredibly, there exists today million dollar self-help businesses founded solely on “The Science of Getting Rich.”

While many people believe that amassing wealth is a matter of hard work, luck, or a combination of both, Wattles promoted a more scientific approach. “There is a science of getting rich, and it is an exact science, like algebra or arithmetic,” he famously noted. “There are certain laws which govern the process of acquiring riches, and once these laws are learned and obeyed by anyone, that person will get rich with mathematical certainty.”

“The Science of Getting Rich,” still widely read and highly acclaimed today, laid ground for “The Science of Being Great,” in which Wattles stated that “Greatness is equally inherent in all, and may be manifested by all. Every person may become great.”

The inspirational and motivational message is also clear in “The Science of Being Well,” where Wattles writes that the work is directed at “those who want health, and who want a practical guide and handbook, not a philosophical treatise. It is an instructor in the use of the universal Principle of Life, and my effort has been to explain the way in so plain and simple a fashion that the reader, though he may have given no previous study to New Thought or metaphysics, may readily follow it to perfect health. While retaining all essentials, I have carefully eliminated all non-essentials; I have used no technical, abstruse, or difficult language, and have kept the one point in view at all times.”

The question that arises is whether Wattles successfully applied his New Thought beliefs and theories on how an average person can become rich, happy and healthy regardless of his or her circumstances to his own life. From Florence’s correspondence to Mrs. Towne it would appear that he did. Before his death in 1911 at 51, Florence reported that “he made lots of money, and had good health, except for his extreme frailty.”

There is no information on how many “regular” people who read Wattles’ works in the past century had been influenced by his message. We do know, however, that the Australian New Thought writer Rhonda Byrne said her inspiration for the hit 2006 movie, “The Secret,” as well as the same-titled book, came from Wattles’ “The Science of Getting Rich.” When she first opened the book in 2004, Byrne relates on her website, “Something inside of me had me turn the pages one by one, and I can still remember my tears hitting the pages as I was reading it. It gave me a glimpse of The Secret and it was like a flame inside of my heart.”

So in the end, the little-known life of Wallace Delois Wattles was, in many ways, a quintessentially American story of pulling oneself up by the bootstraps, succeeding against all odds, and influencing the lives of others. In the words of his daughter Florence, “His life was truly the powerful life.”

Free Success Ebook: “The Creative Process in the Individual” by Thomas Troward

Richard Catalina, Jr. — Thu, 28 Oct 2010 09:24:07 +0000

"IT IS an old saying that “Order is Heaven’s First Law,” and like many other old sayings it contains a much deeper philosophy than appears immediately on the surface. Getting things into a better order is the great secret of progress, and we are now able to fly through the air, not because the laws of Nature have altered, but because we have learnt to arrange things in the right order to produce this result – the things themselves had existed from the beginning of the world, but what was wanting was the introduction of a Personal Factor which, by an intelligent perception of the possibilities contained in the laws of Nature, should be able to bring into working reality ideas which previous generations would have laughed at as the absurd fancies of an unbalanced mind. The lesson to be learnt from the practical aviation of the present day is that of the triumph of principle over precedent, of the working out of an idea to its logical conclusions in spite of the accumulated testimony of all past experience to the contrary . . . The law of Cause and Effect is one we can never get away from, but by carefully following it up we may find that it will lead us further than we had anticipated." - Judge Thomas Troward, "The Creative Process in the Individual"

DOWNLOAD FREE SUCCESS EBOOK: "The Creative Process in the Individual" by Thomas Troward (1915) Success Manual Strategist Edition 2010

Recently, we added "The Law and the Word" by Thomas Troward to The Success Manual Free Download Library. Judge Troward, a brilliant writer and perhaps "the Godfather of New Thought," is not easy reading by any means (at least not for me). As a result, despite his legacy with regard to the New Thought movement and the impact of his teachings on modern day Success Masters (e.g., Bob Proctor, Anthony Robbins, etc.), we have been a little hesitant to bring his works into our online fold.

Were we wrong. Hundreds of copies of The Law and the Word have already been downloaded.

Which brings us to today's addition to The Success Manual Free Download Library: "The Creative Process in the Individual" by Thomas Troward. Out of all of his works, I personally find Creative Process easier to assimilate and of immediate practical value. Yes, it has its esoteric qualities as do all of Troward's work; but, it does provide an understandable dissertation on exactly what the title of the work states: The Creative Process in the Individual.

As we noted in our previous post on Troward's work, a primary focus of Creative Process is, as Troward expressly states, "The triumph of principle over precedent, the working out of an Idea to its logical conclusions in spite of the accumulated testimony of all past exerpience to the contrary." In other words, even though the Law of Cause and Effect (the "Law of Laws" according to Emerson) is in full force and effect, we need to be mindful that what happened yesterday has absolutely no bearing on what we do today, unless we allow it. Each day is a fresh start. Yesterday's "failures" belong to yesterday.

The human race has been able to advance as a result of the Triumph of Principle Over Precedent. Each day brings new Opportunity for Growth - and Grow we do (to the extent we allow ourselves). And, Growth of any kind ultimately brings Success and purifes the Soul.

A Cautionary Note: The Creative Process in the Individual, like all Success Manuals - but particularly so here - is NOT a book that one simply picks up, reads and puts back on the book shelf to collect dust. It IS a Success Manual, to be read and studied with purpose and intent. The conveyed words of Wisdom are to be savored, absorbed into our consciousness and analyzed. To approach this work any other way is a waste of time and energy.

Lastly, please keep in mind my prior explanation on the "ether" as you read this book to avoid any confusion.

Now, roll up your sleeves and get to work!

Until next time . . . .

Peace Out, and - Namasté!

To your Health, Wealth, Prosperity and Success,

The Success Manual Team

Free Success Ebook: “The Secret of Wealth” by Franklyn Hobbs

Richard Catalina, Jr. — Thu, 02 Sep 2010 15:10:22 +0000

The acquiring of money and property, once begun, is a simple and easy process; growing rich comes through habits that are such fixed parts of one’s daily life that, once on the road to wealth, it would be quite difficult, if not wholly impossible, to stop the growth. The responsibility and the result lie with each individual and the thoughts and actions that he or she chooses. Each living person chooses – and each hour that passes fixes his or her choice deeper and deeper in the individual's daily life.

Free Success Ebook: "The Secret of Wealth" by Franklyn Hobbs (1923) Success Manual Strategist Edition 2010

DOWNLOAD FREE SUCCESS EBOOK: "The Secret of Wealth" by Franklyn Hobbs (1923) - Success Manual Strategist Edition 2010

When reading many of these older classic Success Manuals, I am astounded by how often the words of wisdom in these books directly apply to our present times. Many of the classic Success Manuals were written 80-100 years ago; yet, when reading them, one would believe that they were written only recently, since the message of the word is so appropriate to our present world and the economic conditions that encompass it.

So it is with "The Secret of Wealth" by Franklyn Hobbs. If you enjoyed "The Way to Wealth" by Benjamin Franklin, written in 1757, then you will love this work by Hobbs. This Franklyn picks up where the prior Franklin left off.

The premise of The Secret of Wealth by Franklyn Hobbs is simple: The vast majority of individuals who become wealthy do so NOT through single, spectacular, "home runs" (think "get rich quick"), but rather, through small, steady and consistent acts, which, over time, the accumulative effect generates wealth.

Hobbs is right. Yes, there are some people who are in that right place at the right time - not by "luck," but through action, diligence, planning and all of the other factors that we discuss on this site - who do make a "killing" in futures trading after years and years of learning and losses, or who write that once-in-a-lifetime best selling series that sells millions and millions of copies (after writing numerous books, the royalties of which barely cover the rent), or that musical group that finally "hits it big" after 12 long, hard years on the road playing in dive bars and living on boxed macaroni and cheese and peanut butter & jelly sandwiches. It does happen. But, what are the chances? Since most give up anyways, the likelihood of generating enormous wealth and holding onto it through a single event are miniscule.

The fact is that it comes down to what we do day-in and day-out. How much do we really waste? Do we buy material things because we truly need or want them, or do we buy them because it is fashionable and we need to keep up with what is in style, or worse, because we feel compelled to "keep up with the 'Joneses.'" As Hobbs points out, the truly wealthy didn't live a life of extravagance BEFORE they accumulated great wealth. They lived modestly, within their means - AND SAVED, NOT SPENT, THE MONEY THEY EARNED!

Let's see. How much is the US federal government's debt? Let's go to an amazing site: The US Debt Clock.

As of this writing, the U.S. federal debt is approximately $13.5 TRILLION Dollars. That equates with approximately $43,233 for every U.S. citizen, or $120,761 for every U.S. taxpayer.

The purpose of this post is not to assess blame, determine who or what party is at fault, or play politics. It is simply to point out that our own governement cannot live within its means. And, we are not alone - many governments in the world are in the same or similar (or worse) predicaments.

This mindset permeates right down through state and municipal governements to the citizens and taxpayers of this country. Our personal debt is out of control. Take a look at The US Debt Clock again: the personal debt in the United States is an unfathomable $16.2 TRILLION Dollars! There is no way - absolutely NO way - that anyone can accumulate wealth as long as they continue to live in a "borrow and spend" mentality. That includes our government. And, it includes us.

Friends - we MUST take control of our financial lives! Because if we don't, certainly nobody else will. And certainly we will never accumulate wealth unless we change our mindsets and work at the basics. It seems everyone these days is trying to hit the game-winning, grandslam home run, but they don't know how the game of baseball is even played and they have never taken batting practice.

My pontificating is done, which brings us back full circle to The Secret of Wealth by Franklyn Hobbs. Download it and start reading it today - there is no time to waste! As the old Chinese Proverb states: "The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago; the second best time is now."

Happy Wealth!

Until next time . . . .

Peace Out, and - Namasté!

To your Health, Wealth, Prosperity and Success,

The Success Manual Team
