Author: W. D. Wattles

Wallace Delois Wattles, an influential figure in the New Thought movement, was born in the United States in the mid-1860s. He gained prominence as an author and a pioneer of self-help and motivational writing. Wattles”s most renowned work, “The Science of Getting Rich” (1910), serves as a manual for those aiming to overcome mental barriers and attract wealth through positive thinking and a clear set of practical principles. His literary style combines a pragmatic approach to prosperity with a spiritual understanding of the laws of the universe. Wattles writes with a conviction that personal beliefs shape one”s reality, and by applying the “science” he outlines, anyone can manifest wealth and success. His writings, though penned more than a century ago, continue resonating with contemporary audiences, contributing to ongoing discussions on wealth attraction, the power of thought, and the intersections of spirituality and material success. “The Science of Getting Rich” is not only a reflection of Wattles”s philosophical stances but also a cornerstone in the genre of self-improvement literature. Wattles”s influence extends beyond his most famous book; he authored several other lesser-known works that contributed to his overall impact on the field of personal development.
