Science of Getting Rich shows you how to create a wonderful life of abundance
We are not supposed be be living our lives in poverty, and that this not the natural way of things.
It talks about the universal energy and the Laws of Attraction. However it was written in antiquated language which is not always that easy for us to understand.
I am a member of a Club which is studying this book, and we have found that when we apply its principles it really works.
So as I study it, and read and re-read it, I am drafting a summary of each chapter for easy reference.
I have decided to share this with you here, though I am also giving the link for the original ebook so that you can read that for yourself.
Best wishes,

The Secret in Essence
The Secret and the Laws of Attraction in essence is that we all contain the divine spark. Our creator created us in his own image, and we have that creative spark within us. Our creator used thoughts to create the universe and this world. He is a vibrational energy which caused the physical plane to come into existence by use of this thoughts, which are a form of that energy. We also have this facility to create events and objects on the physical plane by use of our thoughts.
However, we can only create on this level if our thoughts are focused on what we want. When we worry or think negatively, we throw up negative images, and so our unconscious mind thinks that is what we are trying to create. The Law of Attraction states that we attract that upon which we focus. No wonder that we attract into our lives that which we most dwell upon! So we must guard our thoughts so that we focus on what we want in our lives, so that we become the creative force that we were born to be. If we harness our powers, we can become co-creators of our lives.
Chapter 1 The Right to be Rich
We develop in mind, soul and body by using things, and society is arranged that we need money in order to be the possessor of things. Therefore the basis of all advancement must be the science of getting rich.
Every person naturally wants to become all they are capable of becoming. You can only become what you want to be by making use of things, and you can have the free use of things only as you become rich enough to buy them. Therefore, the understanding of the science of getting rich is the most essential of all knowledge.
There is nothing wrong in wanting to get rich. The desire for riches is really the desire for a richer, fuller and more abundant life. It is perfectly right that you should want to be rich. In fact, it is your obligation to become so. It is perfectly right for you to give your best attention to the science of getting rich, for it is the noblest and most necessary of all studies. If you neglect this study, you are derelict in your duty to yourself, to God and humanity, for you have an obligation to God and to humanity to make the most of yourself.
Michael Losier
Chapter 2 There is a Science to Getting Rich
Getting rich is not the result of environment. It is not the result of following a particular business.
Getting rich is the result of doing things in a certain way.
You must live in harmony with the laws governing the Universe
Chapter 3 Is Opportunity Monopolised?
Everything you see on earth is made from the one original substance, out of which all things proceed. There is no limit to the supply of formless stuff, or original substance. The universe is made out of it, but it was not all used in making the universe. The spaces in, through and between the forms of the visible universe are permeated and filled with the original substance, with the formless stuff, which is the raw material of all things. This provides an inexhaustible supply.
Chapter 4 The First Principle in The Science of Getting Rich
Every thought of form, held in thinking substance, causes the creation of that form. Generally the form is along lines of growth and action already established. For example, if you focus on a house, the thinking substance will not cause the immediate creation of that house, but it can influence the creative energies already working in trade and commerce into the right channels to cause the speedy building of that house.
A person is a thinking centre and can originate thought. A human cannot shape a thing unless he has held it in thought first. Man has concentrated so far on making things in the physical form, and has not given sufficient attention to producing things from the formless substance by communicating his thoughts to it.
Chapter 5 Increasing Life
The intelligent substance which is all, and in all, and which lives in all, including you, is a consciously living substance. As it is a consciously living substance, it has the inherent nature for increase of life. Every living thing must continually seek for the enlargement of life, because life must increase itself.
A seed dropped on the ground springs into activity, and in the act of living, produces a hundred more seeds. Life, by living, multiplies itself. It is forever becoming more. It must do so, if it continues to exist at all.
Consciousness is continually expanding. We are subject to the urge of life, seeking expression, whichever drives us on to know more, to do more, and to be more.
In order to know more, do more and be more, we must have more. We must have things to use. We must get rich so that we can live more.
The desire for riches is simply the capacity for larger life seeking fulfilment. The same aspect that prompts you to want more money is the same as that which makes the plant grow. It is life seeking fuller expression.
The one living substance desires to live more in and through you. Therefore it wants you to have all the things you can use. It is the desire of God that you should get rich. He wants you to get rich because he can express himself better through you if you have plenty of things to use in giving him expression. He can live more in you if you have unlimited command of the means of life.
The universe desires you to have everything you want to have. Nature is friendly to your plans. However, it is essential that your purpose should harmonise with the purpose that is in all. You must want real life, not mere pleasure or sensual gratification.
Get rid of the idea that God wants you to sacrifice yourself for others. God requires nothing of the kind. What God wants is that you should make the most of yourself, and you can help others more by making the most of yourself. You can make the most of yourself only by getting rich.
You are to become a creator, not a competitor. You are going to get what you want, but in such a way that when you get it, every other person whom you affect, will have more than he has now.
Riches secured on the competitive level are never satisfactory and permanent. They are yours today, and another's tomorrow. If you are to become rich in a scientific and certain way, you must rise entirely out of competitive thought. You must never think for a minute that the supply is limited. As soon as you think of money as cornered and controlled by others, you drop into the competitive mindset, and at that time your power to cause creation is gone for the time-being.
KNOW that there are countless millions of dollars' worth of gold in the mountains of the earth, not yet brought to light. And know that if it were not, more would be created from thinking substance to supply your needs.
KNOW that the money you need will come.
Never look at the visible supply. Always look at the limitless riches in formless substance, and KNOW that they are coming to you as fast as you can receive and use them. You are not seeking anything that is already possessed by someone else. You are causing what you want to be created from formless stuff, and the supply is without limits.
Chapter 6 How Riches Come to you
Give more in use value than the cash value that you take from people in your business. When you rise from the competitive plane to the creative plane, you can scan your business transactions very strictly, and if you are selling someone something that is not adding more to his life than the thing he gave you in exchange, you can afford to stop it.
When you use the creative plane to create things in your life, do not expect them to take shape from the atmosphere, and come into being in front of your eyes. For example, if you want a sewing machine, you need to hold the image of it with the most positive certainty that it is being made, or it is on its way to you. After once forming the thought, have the most absolute and unquestioning faith that the sewing machine is coming. Never think of it or speak of it in any other way than as being sure it is to arrive. Claim it as already yours.
It will be brought to you by the power of the supreme intelligence, acting upon the minds of men. Do not forget for a moment that the thinking substance is through all, in all, communicating with all, and can influence all. The desire of thinking substance for fuller life and better living has caused the creation of all sewing machines ever made, and it can cause the creation of millions more - and will do so, whenever people set it in motion by desire and faith, and by acting in a certain way.
You need not hesitate about asking largely. "It is your Father's pleasure to give you the kingdom" said Jesus. Original substance wants you to have all you can use and will use for the living of the most abundant life.
If you fix upon your consciousness the fact that your desire for the possession of riches is at one with the desire of the supreme power for more complete expression, your faith becomes invincible.
God, the one substance, is trying to live, and do and enjoy things through humanity. He is saying "I want hands to build wonderful structures, to play divine harmonies, to pain glorious pictures. I want feet to run my errands, eyes to see my beauties, tongues to tell mighty truths and to sing marvellous songs".
All that there is of possibility is seeking expression through people. God wants those who can play music to have pianos, and very other instrument so that they can cultivate their talents to the fullest extent. He wants those who can appreciate beauty to be able to surround themselves with beautiful things. He wants those who can discern truth to have every opportunity to travel and observe.
He wants all these things because it is himself that enjoys and appreciates them through us; they are his creation. It is God who wants to play, and sing, and enjoy beauty, and proclaim truth, and wear fine clothes and eat good foods. The desire you feel for riches is the infinite, seeking to express himself in you. So you need not hesitate to ask largely. Your part is to focus on and express that desire to God.
Do not retain the old idea that that poverty and self-sacrifice are pleasing to God, or that He has finished his work, and made all he can make, so that there is not enough to go around.
Do not be afraid to ask for great things. He gives an example of a student who started to focus his attention on the formless substance, but as he was a poor man living in rented accommodation, he could not grasp the fact that all wealth was his. So he simply asked for a new rug and a coal stove, and he achieved these things in a few months'. Then it dawned on him that he had not asked for enough! So he went through the house where he lived, and planned all the improvements he would like to make. He held the image in his mind and began living in the certain way, and he owns the house now and is rebuilding it according to his mental image.
It has been given to him according to his faith, and so it is with you and with all of us.
Chapter 7 Gratitude
The whole process of adjustment and attunement can be summed up in one word
:- Gratitude.
1. Believe that there is one intelligent substance
2. Believe that this substance gives you everything you desire
3. Relate yourself to it by a feeling of deep and profound gratitude.
If you do not have gratitude, riches will not follow, as you cut the wires which connect by failing to make this acknowledgement.
The mental attitude of gratitude draws the mind into closer harmony with the creative energies of the universe from which the blessings come. It stops you from thinking that there is a limit to the supply, which is fatal to your hopes. The grateful outreaching of your mind in thankful praise to the supreme intelligence is a liberation or expenditure of force. The result is an instantaneous movement towards you. Without gratitude you hold dissatisfied thoughts, and if your mind dwells on dissatisfaction, you begin to lose ground. You fix your attention on the inferior, and so surround yourself with inferior things. Fix yourself on the best, and the best will be drawn to you.
Chapter 8 Thinking in the Certain Way
Behind your clear vision must be purpose, to bring it into tangible expression. Behind the purpose there must be an unwavering FAITH that the thing is already yours. You only have to take possession of it. Be as thankful of it now as if it was already in physical form.
Chapter 9 How to use the Will
Substance is friendly to you, it is more anxious to give you what you want than you are to get it.To get rich you simply need to apply your willpower upon yourself.
Use your mind to form a mental image of what you want and hold onto it with faith and purpose. Do not project your thoughts out into the universe, it can accomplish more at home.
As belief is so important, you must guard your thoughts. If you want to be rich, your study must not be on poverty, it must be on wealth. You do not bring something in by considering its opposite. Give clear message of what you DO want.
Chapter 10 Further Use of the Will
Do not tell your past troubles of a financial nature. Do not think of them at all. Do not tell of the poverty of your parents, or the hardships of your early life. If you do this, you class yourself as poor and it will check the movement of things in your direction. You have accepted a certain theory of the universe, so what can you heed by giving consideration to conflicting theories?
Chapter 11 Acting in the Certain Way
The scientific use of thought consists in forming a clear and distinct mental image of what you want, in holding fast to your purpose, and in realising with grateful faith that you do get what you want. Do not try to "project" your thought in any mysterious or occult way, with the idea of it going out and doing things for you. Your faith and purpose will positively impress your vision upon formless substance, which has the same desire for life as you have, and this vision, received from you, sets all the creative processes at work in and through the regular channels of action.
It is not your role to guide or supervise the creative process. All you have to do is retain your vision, stick to your purpose, and maintain your faith and gratitude. But you must act in a certain way if you are to appropriate what is yours when it comes to you. This is the crucial point in the science of getting rich, in that thought and personal action must be combined. There are many people who put all the steps in place as regards thoughts and vision, but remain poor because they do not provide for the reception of the thing they want when it arrives.
By thought, the thing you want is brought to you; by action you receive it.
Whatever your action is to be, it is evident that you must act NOW. You cannot act in the past, and it is important that you put the past behind you. You cannot act in the future, as it is not here yet. If you are not in the right business at this current time, do not make the mistake that you can postpone action until such time as you are. Do not take time planning how you would behave in facing future emergencies. Have faith that you will have the ability if it arrives. If you act in the present with your mind on the future, your present action will be with a divided mind, and will not be effective. Put your whole mind into present action.
Do not give out your creative impulse and then sit down and wait for results. Act now. There is never any time but now, and there never will be. You must begin NOW. And your action must be in your present environment. You cannot act where you are not, you cannot act where you have been, and you cannot act where you are going. You can only act where you are. Hold the vision of yourself in a better place, but ACT in your present environment. Use your present business as a means to getting to a better one. Your vision and faith will set the creative force in motion to bring it towards you, and your action will cause the forces in your own environment to move you toward the place you want.
Chapter 12 Efficient Action
Evolution is the natural law. Every day is either a successful day, or a failure, and it is the successful days that get you what you want. If every day is a failure, you can never get rich, while if every day is a success, you cannot fail to get rich. If there is something that may be done today, and you do not do it, then you have failed as far as that thing is concerned, and the consequences may be far more disastrous than you can imagine. You cannot foresee the results of even the most trivial act. Much my be dependent on you doing some simple act, and it may be the very act which is to open the door to very great possibilities. You can never know what arrangements the supreme intelligence is making for you, and your neglect or failure to so do some small things may cause a long delay in getting what you want.Do every day, ALL that can be done that day. However, you must not overwork. Don't try to do tomorrow's work today. Success is not dependent on the number of things that you do, but the EFFICIENCY of each separate action that counts. Every act in itself is either a success or a failure. Every inefficient act is a failure, and if you spend your life undertaking inefficient acts, your whole life will be a failure. If all your acts are inefficient ones, it follows that the more you do, the more of a failure your life is! On the other hand, every efficient act is a success, and if every act in your life is an efficient one, your whole life must be a success. The cause of failure is doing too many things in an inefficient manner and not doing enough things in an efficient manner. It follows that if you do not do any inefficient acts, and you do a sufficient number of efficient acts, you will become rich. In this way, we see that the science of getting rich is an exact science, like mathematics.
The matter turns on whether you can make each separate act a success in itself. This you can certainly do, as all power is working towards your success. To make each act efficient, you must put power into it. Every action is either strong or weak, and when every action is strong, you are acting in the certain way which will make you rich. Every act can be made strong and efficient by holding your vision whilst you are doing it, and putting the whole power of your faith and purpose into it. It is at this point that the people who separate mental power from action fail. They use the power of their mind in one way, and their action in another. So their actions are not successful. Remember that each successful action is cumulative in its results. When a person starts to move toward a large life (a more positive energy) more things attach themselves to him, and his influence is multiplied.
You must hold your vision while you are doing each act, however trivial or commonplace. You cannot hold it in the smallest detail at every time, but it should be the work of your leisure time to use your imagination in contemplation. If you spend nearly all of your spare time in this practice, you will get speedy results.
Chapter 13 Getting into the Right Business
You can get rich in any business, for it you do not have the right talent, you can acquire it. It will be easier for you to succeed with a business which uses your natural talents, otherwise you will need to learn as you go on. You will get rich more satisfactorily if you do what you want to do.Desire is a manifestation of power. Where there is no power, there is no desire to d that thing. Al things being equal, it is best if you can select a business for which you have the best developed talent, but if you have a strong desire to engage in a particular line of work, you should select that work as your ultimate aim.
Chapter 14 The Impression of Increase
People are seeking increase, which is the influence of the formless intelligence within them seeking fuller expression. The desire for increase is inherent in all nature. It is the fundamental impulse of the universe. All human activities are related to the desire for increase. People are seeking more food, more clothes, more luxury, more beauty, more knowledge - all looking for an increase in something and more life. Every living thing is inspired by continuous advancement. Man knows this, and so he is instinctively always looking for more. The normal desire for increased wealth is not an evil thing. It is simply the desire for a more abundance life. It is an expression of aspiration.All men and women are attracted to those who can give them more of the means of life. In following the certain way, you are getting continuous increase for yourself, and you are giving it to all with whom you come in contact. You are a creative centre from which increase is given off for all. Be careful to convey this assurance to every person with whom you come in contact. No matter how small the deed, put into it the thought of increase, and make sure that the other person is impressed with the thought. Convey advancement in all you do, so that others gain the impression that you are an "advancing personality", and that you advance all who deal with you. Give out the thought of increase. You can give this impression by holding the unshakeable faith that you are of increase, and let this faith inspire every action and thought. Do everything in the firm conviction that you are an advancing personality and you are giving advancement to everyone. Feel that you are getting rich, and in doing so, you are conveying wealth to others.
Do not become boastful, as boating does not come from faith, but from fear and doubt. Simply feel the faith and let it work for you in every transaction. Let every act and tone and look express the quiet assurance that you are getting rich - that you are already rich. Words will not be necessary to express this it others, as they will feel the sense of increase when in your presence. The will feel that in association with you, they will attract increase to themselves. People go where they are given increase.
You must never lose sight of your vision of what you want to achieve or your faith and purpose to get what you want. Be careful that you do not hold the motive of seeking power over other people. The mind that seeks for mastery over others, is the competitive mind, and the competitive mind is not a creative one. Beware of the competitive mind!
Remember the "Golden Rule":- "What I want for myself, I want for everybody".
Chapter 15 The Advancing Person
Whatever profession or business you are in, if you give increase of life to others and make them aware of that fact, they will be attracted to you, and you will become rich. The law of the increase of life is as mathematically certain as the law of gravity. Getting rich is an exact science. Every man and woman who follows these instructions exactly, will get rich.There is a power which never fails to present opportunity to the advancing personality who is moving in obedience to the law. God cannot help helping you if you act in the certain way. He must do so to help himself. There is nothing in your circumstances that that can keep you down if you live your life in the certain way. Start this way of thinking and acting, and your faith and purpose will enable you to see any opportunity to better your condition. Such opportunities will speedily come, as the supreme power who is working through you, will bring them to you.
Do not wait for the perfect opportunity. When an opportunity presents itself to you that helps you to become more than you are, feel compelled towards it, and take it. It will be the first step toward a greater opportunity. For the person who is living the advancing life, there is no such thing as a lack of opportunities. It is an inherent law in the universe that all things should be for him and work together for his good. He must get rich if he acts and thinks in the certain way. This information will never fail.
Chapter 16 Some Cautions and Concluding Observations
Many will scoff at the idea that there is an exact science to getting rich. Thinking the supply of wealth is limited, they will insist that social and governmental institutions must be changed before people can improve their lot. But this is not true. It is true that existing governments keep people in poverty, but this is because the masses do not think and act in the certain way. If the masses started moving forward as explained in this book, neither governments or industrial systems could stop them. If people with the advancing mind move forward to become rich, nothing can keep them in poverty. The more people who get rich on the competitive plain, the worse for others. The more people who get rich on the creative plain, the better for others. Chapter 17 A Summary of The Science of Getting Rich
There is a thinking stuff from which all things are made. In its original state, it permeates, penetrates and fills the interspaces of the universe.A thought in this substance produces the thing that is imaged by the thought. A person can form things in his thought, and by impressing his thought upon formless substance can cause the thing he is thinking about to be created.
In order to do this, a person must pass from the competitive to the creative mind. Otherwise he cannot be in harmony with formless intelligence, which is always creative. A person may come into harmony with the formless substance by maintaining a lively and sincere gratitude for the blessings it bestows on him. Gratitude unifies the minds of individuals with the intelligence of substance, so that a person's thoughts are received by the formless. A person can remain upon the creative plane by uniting himself with the formless intelligence through a deep and continuous feeling of gratitude.
A person must form a clear and definite mental image of the thing he wishes to do or to become, and he must hold this mental image in his thoughts, while being deeply grateful to the supreme intelligence. The person who wishes to get rich must spend his leisure in contemplating his vision, and in giving thanksgiving for what has already been given.
The importance of frequent contemplation of the mental image, coupled with unwavering faith and gratitude cannot be over-emphasised. This is the process by which impression is given to the formless, and the creative set in motion.
The creative energy works through the established channels of natural growth. All in the mental image will be brought to the person who follows these instructions, and whose faith does not waver. What he wants will come to him through the established ways of established trade and commerce. To attract what is rightfully his, a person must act in such a way that causes him to be more than filling his present place. He must keep in mind the purpose to get rich through realisation of his mental image. He must do each day all that can be done that day, taking care to undertake each act in a successful manner. He must give to each person a use value in excess of the cash value he receives, so that each transaction adds more to life. He must hold the advancing thought so that the impression of increase will be communicated to all with whom he comes into contact.
The person who practices these instructions will certainly get rich, and the riches received will be in exact proportion to the definiteness of their vision, the fixity of their purpose, the steadiness of their faith and the depth of their gratitude.
