  Thor Challgren: Thought is the creative power, or the impelling force which causes the creative power to act.
• 0:28
  Thor Challgren: Thinking in a certain way will bring riches to you, but you must not rely upon thought alone, paying no attention to personal action.
• 0:38
  Thor Challgren: Those are the words from the Science of Getting Rich by Wallace D Wallace, first written in 1910 over 100 years ago and still to this day remains a huge, influential book in the new thought industry.
• 0:52
  Thor Challgren: Now, in this chapter, this is called Chapter 11, acting in a Certain Way, he talks about the importance of action.
• 1:02
  Thor Challgren: So today, in this episode, we're talking about action.
• 1:06
  Thor Challgren: Welcome to.
• 1:07
  Thor Challgren: Every Day a New Thought.
• 1:07
  Thor Challgren: I'm Thor Challgren, and every day I bring you a new thought, a new perspective.
• 1:12
  Thor Challgren: I am on day three of my series on the Science of Getting Rich by Wallace Waddles, and I'm talking about Chapter 11 and the reason why this specific chapter is.
• 1:24
  Thor Challgren: There are many people who talk about this book and cite four specific chapters, and in my first two episodes in this series I talked about Chapter 4 and Chapter 7.
• 1:36
  Thor Challgren: Today I'm talking about Chapter 11.
• 1:38
  Thor Challgren: Bob Proctor says that if you read chapters 4, 7, 11 and 14 and you do it every single day for 90 days, you will pre-program your mind on the idea of success.
• 1:52
  Thor Challgren: So what we're talking about today is acting.
• 1:55
  Thor Challgren: In a certain way and this is kind of up until this point.
• 2:00
  Thor Challgren: Wallace Waddles has laid out the foundation for saying thoughts are things.
• 2:04
  Thor Challgren: That you put your thoughts out into the universe, he calls it the formless substance and then you get back the thing that you thought about.
• 2:13
  Thor Challgren: So basically, your thoughts are powerful, you are creating your reality.
• 2:17
  Thor Challgren: That's essentially the gist of Chapter 4.
• 2:21
  Thor Challgren: Chapter 7, which I covered yesterday, is all about gratitude and he talks about the importance of having that grateful mindset, no matter what, looking around and being grateful and not dissatisfied with things.
• 2:35
  Thor Challgren: But today he's talking in this chapter about the importance of action, and I'm going to quote him right here and then unpack this quote.
• 2:43
  Thor Challgren: He says this is the crucial point in the science of getting rich, right here, where thought and personal action must be combined.
• 2:54
  Thor Challgren: He says there are many people who consciously or unconsciously set the creative forces in action by the strength and persistence of their desires, but who remain poor because they do not provide for the reception of the thing they want when it comes by thought.
• 3:15
  Thor Challgren: The thing you want is brought to you by action, you receive it.
• 3:20
  Thor Challgren: Think about that what he's saying is you have to take action.
• 3:26
  Thor Challgren: He talks a lot about in this chapter, about people who sit around and go, oh, it will come to me.
• 3:32
  Thor Challgren: He's saying, no, you must act.
• 3:34
  Thor Challgren: And in that last part of that quote I read by action, you receive it Now.
• 3:40
  Thor Challgren: It's interesting because we can think forward and imagine a future that we want and we, now, we place ourselves in that future and go, oh, that's what I want.
• 3:49
  Thor Challgren: And we just start to live in that place.
• 3:51
  Thor Challgren: And he cautions us against projecting into the future and living in that future.
• 3:59
  Thor Challgren: He's saying and this is a quote here from him he says hold the vision of yourself in the right business, with the purpose to get into it and the faith that you will get into it and are getting into it, but act in your present business.
• 4:14
  Thor Challgren: Use your present business as a means of getting a better one.
• 4:18
  Thor Challgren: So what he's saying is look, if you sit around and daydream all day long about one day my circumstances would be better, one day I'll have that thing.
• 4:26
  Thor Challgren: I want that relationship, that health, that wealth.
• 4:29
  Thor Challgren: He's saying no, if you live and in the future, you're not acting in the present, and the present is the only place where you can act.
• 4:38
  Thor Challgren: So he says hold the vision of yourself in the job you want while you act with faith and purpose on the job you have, and you will certainly get the job you want.
• 4:51
  Thor Challgren: Key key point here is action, and don't live in the future, but focus on where you are now and do the best you can in that job.
• 5:01
