The Science Of Being Great

Editor's Note from Darlene

Where possible this communication improvement process was expanded to be gender neutral, and as personalized into first person, as feasible…. Removal of communication obstacles makes it FASTER and EASIER to

  • access the Authentic Self and Creation Power Wisdom,
  • evaluate and internalize new information aligned with Reason and validated by Solar Plexus,
  • apply thoughts and actions essential to consistently manifest desire results of having Paradise On Earth....

Simply stated as: Be > Do > Have.

To make it easy to identify WHICH Version is being worked with, the I-Message Version has the word BEING in its title...

Primary word exchanges: Replaced want with desire (want indicates "lack" to the brain). Replaced spend time with invest time. (Spend indicates waste. Invest indicates Return ON Investment.... Everybody receives the SAME AMOUNT of Time, it's HOW the time is invested and leveraged that makes the difference.)... Exchanged pronouns to be in a SELF-Talk format -- When appropriate replaced you with I or me; yourself with myself; they with us, we, our, et cetera…

THIS I-MESSAGE TEXT sets in motion a process that is so value-productively powerful that it must be shared with everybody on the planet... Thus, I'm doing my part by making THIS "I Message VERSION" available on the Internet, in Word Text, and verbally reading via Internet Conferencing....

The amazing first book by Wallace D. Wattles has been in my library for many years, and on my computer in pdf format...

But ONLY AFTER converting the text to "I MESSAGES" did I become consciously aware that its practical application of Creation Power Wisdom offers the absolute perfect Captain and Crew Training Manual... (Captain - Crew refers to use of the Conscious - Subconscious)...

It's been a long adventure seeking the best primary Success Engineering HOW TO Guide Books for manifesting a Personal Paradise and Paradise On Earth... At long last several resources proved themselves worthy by having stood the test of time for consistently producing desired results. These resources include:

  • The Science Of Getting Rich,The Science Of BEING Well, and The Science Of BEING Great
    by Wallace D. Wattles - (all adapted to First Person Versions from his writings),

  • The Master Key System by Charles F. Haanel,

  • Think And Grow Rich by Napolean Hill,

  • Power verses Force and Transcending The Levels Of Consciousness by David R. Hawkins,

  • along with Information from The School of Thinking...

All dynamics within these resource are included in courses offered via Ideal Academy for An Ever Better World in local community facilities and on the Internet. -- These resources integrated with brain-quadrant harmonizing activities provide powerful tools for consciously manifesting desired results.

After reading Mr. Wattles' excellent work, it's easily realized that ALL the success and personal development literature since 1910 owes a great debt to The Science of Getting Rich... It also becomes clear why the last century has shown more lifestyle improvements than occurred during the last 2000 years of civilization... AND it will be clear WHY even greater improvements shall keep manifesting....

Mr. Wattles was born in the United States in 1860 and died in 1911... Although Mr. Wattles is most known because of his prosperity classic The Science of Getting Rich, he wrote several other books including: The Science of Being Great, The Science of Being Well, Making of the Man Who Can, Health Through New Thought and Fasting, several shorter manuscripts, plus a novel, Hellfire Harrison.

As we journey into the "old writings" it's quickly revealed that most of what is sold today as new insights into human behavior is merely RE-discovery of knowledge we have had for centuries... Learning about things not yet RE-discovered, requires reading old books to find the wisdom of our ancestors and the master keys that open doorways to our future...

Another factor to consider in using information within the "old manuscripts" is that such has been applied for enough time to prove whether or not the knowledge "works" for generating results that are still desired.

For example, the "The Science of Being Well", Mr. Wattles encouraged his readers to test his theories on themselves rather than take his word as an authority, and he claimed to have tested his methods on himself and others before publishing them... Ora Ellen Cox, writing on "The Socialist Party in Indiana" in 1916, stated that Wattles lived in or near Kokomo, Indiana near the end of his life. In a Letter to Mrs. Towne his publisher, his daughter Florence identified the last town they lived in as Elwood, Indiana.
