The way to be rich is to think rich, to feel rich, to repeat self-affirming statements of richness until the money magically rolls in. For ‘a thought produces the thing that is imaged by the thought’. So one simply has to repeat statements like ‘I am successful in whatever I do’ or ‘Everything is getting better every day’ until one really believes them, and, abracadabra, it will be so. The New Thought movement used the techniques of ancient philosophy for the profane goal of personal enrichment.
