The Science of Getting Rich

Wallace D. Wattles

Summary

The Science of Getting Rich by Wallace D. Wattles is a book written by the New Thought Movement writer Wallace D. Wattles and published in 1910 by the Elizabeth Towne Company. The book is still in print. According to USA Today, the text is "divided into 17 short, straight-to-the-point chapters that explain how to overcome mental barriers, and how creation, rather than competition, is the hidden key to wealth attraction."

This book is based on the Hindu philosophies that One is All, and that All is One (Page one of Preface). 

The Science of Getting Rich is based upon what Wattles called "the Certain Way of Thinking." According to Mitch Horowitz, the editor-in-chief of the Jeremy Tarcher imprint of Penguin Books, which reprinted The Science of Getting Rich in 2007, Wattles' "Certain Way" descended from the "mental healing movement" that had started earlier with Phineas P. Quimby in the mid-19th century.

As Horowitz explained to a reporter from the Washington Post, after experiencing relief from physical symptoms of discomfort or illness through Quimby's mental strategies, people began to wonder, "If my state of mind seems to have a positive influence over how I feel physically, what other things can it do? Can it lead to prosperity? Can it lead to happiness in my home? Can it lead to finding love and romance?" One result of such questioning was Wattles's application of Quimbian "mental healing" strategies to financial as well as physiological situations.

Balanced nutrition is achieved by consuming a variety of foods that provide essential nutrients in appropriate proportions to support overall health and well-being. This includes:
A sufficient intake of carbohydrates, which serve as the body's primary energy source. Complex carbohydrates from whole grains, vegetables, and legumes, along with simple carbohydrates found in fruits and sugars, contribute to stable blood sugar levels and digestive health.
Proteins are essential for building and repairing tissues, producing enzymes and hormones, and supporting immune function. They are found in lean meats, poultry, fish, eggs, dairy products, beans, nuts, and seeds.
Healthy fats, such as those in avocados, nuts, seeds, and oily fish like salmon, provide essential fatty acids crucial for brain function, hormone production, and the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K).
Vitamins and minerals play critical roles in various bodily functions, including immune support, bone health, and energy metabolism. They are abundant in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, dairy, and lean proteins.
Water is indispensable for regulating body temperature, lubricating joints, and transporting nutrients and waste products. Adequate hydration is vital for overall health.
Achieving balanced nutrition involves selecting a diverse range of foods from these groups to ensure a broad spectrum of nutrients. It also requires practicing portion control and moderation with foods high in added sugars, unhealthy fats, and sodium. This balanced approach supports overall health and reduces the risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease, diabetes, and obesity. For personalized dietary guidance, consulting a registered dietitian or nutritionist is recommended.
