All we are afraid of being rich

March 6, 2008 · 1 Comment

I received a mail from a friend that comment that a while ago with her husband they have a successful business. And the more successful were more problems began to appear, which ended up with the copule separated. She thinks that they were so affected that now her mind is hindered and that prevents it from moving, advance economically and have more things. She thinks that this fact makes them think, unconsciously, that if they do well with the money to go back to finish separated.

It is the fear of progress, leave happiness today. It is as if they were going to be punished by ambitious, and the universe will punish his ambition stripping what they want more than money.

I told my friend that this trauma actually exists in many people. Many of us do not want to progress faster or not we want to make progress at all because we are afraid of losing what we have, it seems to us very much. We believe that if we get rich by a coup, for example, we would bring bad luck and we could lose our family or our friends. And so we are satisfied, not risk, and try to improve a little, a very little without the Universe realize.

It is a defense mechanism of nature, while we are well, best dont innovate, dont change.

But it is a trap, an absurd  trap. Particularly because it means accepting the fear, adopt our own fear as a matter of course, who lives with us all the time. And that fear is going to finish winning our soul and seizing us. That fear will make us to progress increasingly slow, slower, to stop. And then there is no way out. No way.

The future and wealth are made for us. For whom instead? And that future we need to take, the way you want. First, we must dispel the fear of our minds, and then take in the future. As Wattles said, there is nothing good to be poor or have a modest life. If so were true, all the poor would be happy, and they are not. Poverty is not a good thing, is a sorry state that does not help us at all. And the middle class only increases the frustration of the people. Nobody can fully develop if it does not have everything that want, everything you need to show all your human qualities. Nobody can be happy in mediocrity.

And the security that we believe to have, in a shot could disappear. So we have to take our future, clean our minds of fear, and be free from fear that causes us forward. Only then can we quickly get everything we want and be truly happy.

The powerful people that have used their will and desire

March 5, 2008 · Leave a Comment

I read somewhere that the promoters or disseminators of the book and film The Secret, based on the Law on Attraction, are given paternity on the most famous fortunes of mankind. We are told, at least I thought well understood that Carnegie, Rockefeller and the like, have become millionaires through carrying out the secret that these groups now deveale to us.

Besides being quite presumptuous, since there is the slightest way of knowing how Rockefeller made his fortune in his intimate brain, it seems to me completely nonsensical award all these fortunes to a certain way of thinking. And if the holders of such fortunes were a secret inviolate mysteriously conveyed to them, we can hardly check.

Care, I am not saying that coincidentally may have reason not to a great extent, because there is no way to prove it. But presuming it to sell books or movies I think excessive marketing. Of course, in addition to this statement stained with a conspiratorial component, as they suggest that all these wealthy individuals shared the same secret that was passed them all so dark and underground.

It is useless to mention that all this is impossible to prove. But that would be the lesser of two evils. The downside is that it puts them at a level of presumtion that makes intelligent people unbelieve immediately of his theories, ignoring its positive elements. In other words, well-intentioned people who are exposed to this level of exaggeration were horrified by its sharp smell of cheap marketing.
At least that’s what I think.

A true story about how to guess the future

March 4, 2008 · Leave a Comment

Much has been written here about ways to predict the future. There are people who can and who do not. It is as simple as that there are people and people. Those who can not are that they have not tried simply. And I leave you a true story.

A friend who always visits this blog began to practise the teachings of The Science of Getting Rich from Wallace Wattles. We will name her A. You can read their comments on different pages. Well, without much detail, we can say that on the same day that she began to feel that something was changing, guessed their future. In the same days that Science Wattles began to grow in his mind, she had a perception that only a guess might have. If there Seer, clear…

One day woke up and knew, she knew that that day would change something in their employment situation, which was being bombed by “sayings and makings” as she recounts in a comment to this blog. And actually the same day things changed, and changed for the better.

That’s adivination?. Forgive me, but it’s not. The future, like the past, is formed by things that are dynamics and are changing constantly and turning in our favor or against us. And that is not that the past or the future change, but we address our life in the sense of transiting the past and the future in our favour, as long as we move the substance, the vast maker of all things.

Hopefully will read more of A. in the coming days. If her faith remains strong certainly surprised us positively.

The absolute faith in Wattles

March 3, 2008 · Leave a Comment

Quoting Wattles in The Science of Getting Rico, in Chapter 4:

Do not ask why these things are true or speculate on how they could be true. Just trust them. The science of becoming rich begins with the complete acceptance of this.

Perhaps this is the assertion of Wallace Wattles more times has been unheeded. All those who have made contact with the book The Science of Getting Rico we have begun asking how we can make this work, why, what was the explanation for scientific or common sense, and so on. etc. All, or nearly all, we have fallen into that temptation.

Perhaps I know the only person who didn´t this. It is a great friend and partner who has firmly accepted the precepts of science without asking why even once. I remember that we had long conversations where he made an enormous effort to convince me that simply accept. Acept and believe.

The argument he used was simple, but very forceful. My friend said that if science was real and it worked, blindly believing it will make us rich, and there would be nothing to worry about thereafter. However, if those things were simply unrealistic and an a not working invention, or only one more fabrication, we would not do any harm or hurt us. So it was worthy believe blindly, without worrying about the origin of things beyond belief that it works.

And so we did. And really works. The most wonderful book that has been written, in my opinion, describes a strong reality as firm as the sun, clear, simple and not only make us rich but again makes us owners of our lives, govern what we want to happen, achieving what we want be or do, and ultimately makes us so happy.

Wattles revisited

October 4, 2007 · Leave a Comment

As always I can, I make a re-reading of the book of the Science of Becoming Rich of our good friend and beneficent Wallace Wattles. This time was for some days of uncertainty to have happened, of doubt and of confusion in what concerns to my work and the different activities that I carry out to make money. It was, as always, to return to the source to charge the batteries.

And every time that I return encounter a new aspect in Wattles that had not seen before. This astonishes me because it is not such a long neither so dense book as so that one always finds different things.

In this case I stopped in a page with a thought that came me suddenly to my head. It was the security that Wattles is not an author of those of self-help that seeks to give us a recipe on how thinking, what to think and that if we make it we will have all the things that we want. The books of self-help have a thing in common: they say make this and that, of certain form, and your life will change one day for the other one. Wattles is different. Not there are recipes to change our form to think, there is not anything to modify in our lives. Not there is an order of things that to complete, neither recommendations that many times are contradicted among them.

Wattles is simple, simple, deeply scientific, creative, formative, and all their recommendations settle in making the things well. Only that it is necessary to make them in certain way, in a successful way, as he says, and with the faith of getting our purpose and gratitude for that to the sustance. Read it and see.

How to use the creative mind

September 24, 2007 · 2 Comments

Wallace Wattles indicates us repeatedly that we should use the creative mind instead of the competitive mind. The competitive mind is that makes an effort to win, that wants to take most of something that already exists in its own benefit. It is the mind that suposes that the wealths in the universe are limited and that therefore I should take it for me before it could be taken by another. And if I can take what another has well, quicker I will become rich. It is almost the limited mind, the mind of the economic rules, the squizo mind.

On the other hand the creative mind is that makes an effort to create wealths where there are not exists. It is the creative thought that looks for generating instead of appropriating, to put instead of taking out, to invent instead of competing by using the invented. It is the way like the big men of the history have become big, generating what doesn’t exist instead of keeping a portion of the existent thing.

And I think of an example excessively paradigmatic, first for the current times and then because it shows the same person clearly and consecutively in the use of their two minds. It is Bill Gates example.

When he was young, Bill used their creative mind deeply. In those years the computation companies decreased to a minuscule group led by IBM that had the vanguard and most of the market. The blue giant, as they call it, possessed enormous resources dedicated to develop more and more powerful machines and that alone could be bought by gigantic companies in many thousands or millions of dollars.

But young Bill was resolved to create an empire. Anyone in their situation, and with some common sense, had been given that it could not compete against IBM. Anyone also that had their ambition and their desire of wealth and had not still been discouraged, had thought that if he really wanted to make it should look for big investors, to propose them a convincing idea in exchange for many millions, and to rush to compete against the blue giant to be about stealing them although a small part of their enormous market. Maybe in few years it could have taken a tiny percentage of the market of the big computers and he had lived happy for ever in a humble middle class condominium.

But on the other hand Bill used his creative mind and decided to dive until finding a new niche, a new market, and he found it soon: computers for common people, for the man of the street, for the home and the small office, instead of computers for the big corporations. Their genius exploded and the substance helped him to develop a gigantic market that transformed it in few years in the richest man in the world. This way, instead of fighting for a small portion of the cake of other, his creative mind impelled him to create a new cake that was almost everything of its property and filled him with thousands of millions of dollars. Not alone he won thousands of millions but rather it contributed to change the life and the work like we know them, making an enormous jump to the modern world.

But the time passed. Not exacerbated by their enormous success the so young Bill already decided that it was moment his cake to be only for him that should not allow to enter to anybody. And it began to impel monopolic practices that were worth him millions of dollars in trials and a bad reputation like greedy, disloyal and not very prone character to the innovations if these were developed by others. The antimonopoly trials of Microsoft are a classic in all the areas of the planet and the bad reputation of its company is not gratuitous, due to those not very friendly practices. If the good of Bill had maintained their trust in itself, their honesty of young and open venturesome, their vision in the face of the risks, another would be the concept of their company among the customers.

An example like this shows us that the use of the creative mind can make us grow to high limits while the use of the competitive, greedy and conservative mind, the only thing that will make is that we lose our innocence and our capacity of creating wealth.

When I met the Science of Wattles

August 25, 2007 · Leave a Comment

When I met the work of Wallace Wattles I was passing a good moment in the economic thing, but there was something that bothered me, a hole sensation, of not to know why I was making that was making for. The things of my work went well, and economically I could not complain, although it was not becoming rich, but a feeling that it was a hollow inside, that anything cared a lot and of not having a desire that impels me steamed up at that moment.

Casually I found in internet the book of Wallace Wattles. First read it in English and then in Spanish, that obviously clarified me a lot the vision. Immediately I felt that it was in front of something that had looked for many times without knowing it exactly.

However, I was oppressed by the enormous quality of what had and for the enormous task that waited for me. Immediately I felt that I believe firmly in what Wattles said, an instantaneous faith took possession of me. But at the same time, I felt that that faith required a very big impulse of my will so was made real.

Then I left the book to a side for a couple of months. I had the feeling that I was not enough clever, that I should gather forces, or something should happen that impelled me externally to follow the advice and postulates of the book. It was a strange sensation: on one hand knowing that I was in front of something totally certain for me, but at the same time to know that you don’t have enough force to make it like he should make it. It was as mixing the happiness that I have discovered the truth and a certain sadness of knowing that the search had finished, together with feeling weak to confront the challenges that I should confront.

Until the force appeared and everything changed. The faith put my soul in movement, the gratefulness arose suddenly and I started. I began this way to become rich with firm steps, with certainties and without fear, and with the absolute conviction that this is possible, this works, it is easier than it seems although there are moments of difficulty and weakness. Now, I see back and I think that what I wanted was happening as quick as possible, with determination and security. Now, this is only growing day by day, with the certainty that everything is possible.

Wattles and the gratitude

August 25, 2007 · Leave a Comment

I stopped to think a while about the feeling of the gratitude, or the gratefulness. If one looks at it sincerely, it seems a feeling that is outside of the nature. The animals don’t show gratefulness. When they celebrate their master, in the case of the domestic animals, they are not thanking him but they simply show happiness for the master’s presence. Undoubtedly anyone could tell me that in fact no animal has feelings to the style of the human feelings. But however the animals show sadness, anger or fury, including affection, but never gratefulness.

Of where comes to us the humans such a feeling? Is it maybe the root of something deeper than it comes from our anciens? That it is in fact the gratitude? We are so accustomed to say thanks to other, to thank that at least I had never put on to think from where it comes. Until I knew to Wattles and their work.

The gratitude is to express to other our indulgence for being made something, he gave us something, it enriched us somehow without obtaining anything to change. This is essential, it should not have a consideration so one really thanks. If somebody makes something to obtain another thing in exchange for our part, that is a business, although our culture and good education also imposes us the habit of saying ‘thank you’. But that is not the true gratefulness. This happens when there is not anything to change. That is to say that there have a substantial component of the gratitude, the gratuitousness. It is curious, and perfectly logical also that gratitude has the same root that the word free, or gratuitous or gratuitousness. The things are not casual, evidently.

But then, when somebody gives us something, either something material or spiritual, without hoping to obtain something to change, our feeling of gratitude appears. Why? Because is evident that we are getting rich, he is giving us more life, more place, more dons than those that we could obtain. That is to say, we are receiving life without to make anything in this respect. After the fact, we are more, we are better, we are prepared for more things than before, we have been blessed by somebody to grow, to be owner of more wealth.

That is to say that the gratitude is our symbolic payment currency. An expression, simply, to show that we are conscious and we receive consciously the biggest quantity in life that gives us the other. It is as saying that we know what the other one is making, we either recognize the fact that has taken place, that this has meant him an effort or not. In that aspect the word Thank you! it should be understood as Blessings!, I give you my blessing for what you have made! I pay you symbolically a prize to have given me what you gave me! Thank you!

It is as telling I bless you! That is to say, I show to the whole universe that my spirit leans toward you for what you have made. My soul, my being makes echo of your greatness and they go to you with a blessing, with an expression. My spirit takes a bath your spirit in an expression that is seen in all the ends of the universe and properly registered, also.

For that reason Wattles tells us that when we fix our mind in the fortune or in the goods that we want to get, we make it with gratefulness. That gratitude is an expression of our spirit toward the amorphous matter that will build what we want and we are giving her in advance thank you. We are inclining our spirit toward the substance blessing her for what will give us without requesting us swims to change, without at least to know if we deserve it. Without we have to make an effort too much to achieve it, better than to make our work in the possible best way, giving more life for all.

Why is a science and not a religion?

August 25, 2007 · Leave a Comment

If Wallace Wattles had written his book in these days, people had probably transformed him in a religious leader. He would have their own meeting places and maybe until their fanatic followers and their own liturgy. It is very easy that people had considered The Science of Becoming Rich as a religious book of the new age.

That is because all the references that Wattles carries out to the dark matter, the amorphous and intelligent matter, could be referred to an omnipresent god and that everything knows. But Wattles didn’t write on religion. Why?

The religion, anyone of them, seeks to explain the origin of the universe, like what are the things, like how they were created, who made it, who has the control and how to making to please him, or rather what waits this god from us. It is the explanation of the origin and final destination of the things. It is the one on the way to the universe, explained and digested so that masses understand it or so that they have enough consistency like so that, if they don’t understand it, at least put their faith in them.

But Wallace Wattles wrote about a science. The science doesn’t seek to explain the origin and the destination of the things, but it simply explains how they work. Which are the laws that govern them. A thing is to know how the planets move, which it is its trajectory, and another very different one is to know who created them, why and for what reason. He simply discovered a mechanism for which the human being can build his future to his will and convenience. And it exposed it without giving explanations of why is this way. It simply works, as he said.

The vision of the future in the present

August 11, 2007 · Leave a Comment

The future is not something that is hoping to us gracefully, lengthy in some place through where we will happen surely. The future it is daily, constant construction, that we built every day.

A place in the future does not exist, doesn’t are spaces nor sites that to visit. The places and the sites will take shape as we are building our future. This astonishes to me: the key of the Wattles Method is to think, to vision an image as we want that it is. But that image we do not have to imagine it in the future, only in present and the present concrete. The idea is something complicated idea, but if I really don’t understand it, the Method of Wallace Wattles will not work for me.

That is to say, if I want a great and beautiful house, but I imagine it, and I imagine within the house, but I have grey hairs and seventy years, that will not happen. That is to say, it is because the future will escape towards the future. The vision must be now, at this moment I want the house, at this moment I want that it happens something, because later it is the future, and the future does not exist.

Of course that the house will not be materialized in front of my eyes, and that time will demand, long time inclusively perhaps, until it arrives to me. This depends on my faith and the clear thing of my vision. But my vision must happen now, not in the future. In this form, the substance will create my house as soon as possible, it will start up, and I will have it.

All we are equals to obtain wealth and happiness

August 6, 2007 · Leave a Comment

Yesterday I stopped enough time to think about an idea that left Anselmo in a recent comment of this post. The idea expressed clearly that all the human beings are born prepared with the same tools and that these are the necessary and sufficient to achieve their happiness or to obtain what desire. Not external determining factors exist that can stop us if we apply the correct techniques. And all we have the necessary gifts and the capacity to apply them, independently of our origin. It suffices then only with knowing the appropriate mechanisms. (more…)

A guide for not being discouraged or to lose the faith

August 5, 2007 · Leave a Comment

There are times in which the faith is weakened. One feels diminished, without enthusiasm, and with few hopes that the things be real and the wealth flow as one desires it, imagines it and sees it clearly in his thoughts. Is in those moments, that are cyclic and always will appear, when one doubt of the method of Wallace Wattles. (more…)

I think, then I create what I think.

August 4, 2007 · Leave a Comment

Came to my mind the idea of Omar, that emphasized in a comment in this blog that “to think is the hardest work than exists”. This it taken freely of the chapter 4 of The Science of Getting Rich of Wallace D. Wattles.

Really think is a hard work. It could not be less, since is the authentic piece of the creation reserved for us, humans. and for God, or the amorphous substance, call it as you want. If the nature privileged us with the possibility to do worlds, to build cities or beautiful monuments, and each imaginable and unimaginable thing in our head, should not be an easy task. If we are the only beings of the creation that can think, should not be a simple task. (more…)
