Constructive Science

What Are Your Thoughts on the Subject?

Tony Mase here...

Not long ago, a reader asked me a great question that, unfortunately, I don't have a "definitive" answer to.

Here it is:

"Hi Tony,"

"I came across 'The Secret' almost two years ago and my brother led me your website approximately nine months ago."

"These past years have been great learning years for me and of tremendous improvement. I have been studying and applying the principles learnt in The Science of Getting Rich in my daily life. But there is one intriguing question in my mind which I need help to clarify."

"I have a great difficulty to understand the following statement in the The Science of Getting Rich:"

"'Remember, however, that the desire of Substance is for all, and its movements must be for more life to all; it cannot be made to work for less life to any, because it is equally in all, seeking riches and life.'"

"'Intelligent Substance will make things for you, but it will not take things away from some one else and give them to you.'"

"Being a professional trader, I only make money if someone else loses money and my loss represents someone else's win. Does that mean I have to quit trading?"

"I would be very glad for your assistance."

"Thanks."

Good question...

And one I've been asked a number of times in a number of different ways over the last several years.

Unfortunately...

Although I've been asked about it numerous times and have put some thought into it from time to time, trading in financial instruments as it relates to the philosophy of Wallace D. Wattles is one of those things that remains unsettled in my mind.

On one hand...

One could make the case that traders help "make markets" thereby creating value.

For example...

In the world of stocks, let's say Jane and John Doe decide to "cash out" the Microsoft stock they've been holding for years in order to pay their son or daughter's college tuition. Their being able to sell it when they want to, at the price they want to get for it, depends on someone being in the "market" at that particular time willing to buy it at that price.

Thus, the "trader" who buys it from them, even if for short-term profit, is giving them more in "use" value than he/she receives in "cash" value and is thus in line with Wallace D. Wattles' philosophy.

On the other hand...

I firmly believe that the greed, reckless speculation, and overall "I don't give a crap about anyone else as long as *I* make a buck" mentality of the financial markets in general has played a *MAJOR* role in the financial mess the world finds itself in today.

So...

The bottom line is...

I'm still somewhat "up in the air" on this one. :-)

Those are my thoughts on the subject...

What are yours?

I and I'm sure the person who asked this question, along with a whole bunch of other folks who have the same question, would appreciate hearing your thoughts on the subject of trading in financial instruments as it relates to Wallace D. Wattles' philosophy...

3 Surefire Ways to Insure You'll Be the Next One Laid Off

===========================================

Last summer, while waiting for my son to finish up an activity he was involved in, I was approached by a gal I vaguely knew as the mother of one of the other kids involved in the activity who was there to pick her son up as well.

"Well," she said to me rather angrily, "I was laid off today."

"Really," I replied, "I'm very sorry to hear that."

"You know," she said, "I knew it. I positively knew I'd be the first one to be laid off when there were layoffs at my company."

Not really wanting to hear all the gory details, I remained silent.

"So what if I'm not on time every day and I leave early a lot, I've got a life you know," she continued, "and so what if I'm not always doing their work, I've got other things to do you know, at least I'm there."

Well...

With the "official" unemployment rate here in the United States recently creeping up over ten percent, it got me to thinking of this brief encounter and what a great model it is for those who want to join the currently growing ranks of the unemployed.

So...

Here they are...

Based on this proven model...

Three surefire ways to insure you'll be the next one laid off should layoffs come to your company:

Surefire Way #1 - Imagine yourself as being laid off and unemployed.

Mentally, in your imagination, "experience" yourself as being laid off and unemployed. The more vividly and the more often you do this the better.

To further reinforce your new mindset, it helps to talk about getting laid off and being unemployed as often as you possibly can to as many people as you possibly can.

Surefire Way #2 - Arrive to work late and leave work early.

If you haven't yet gotten the attention of your employer, this is a great way to do so.

It also helps, immensely I might add, to expect to be paid for the time you miss.

Surefire Way #3 - Give your employer less in use value than you receive in cash value.

Do as little of your employer's work and as much of your "stuff", or absolutely nothing at all, as you possibly can during work hours thus "stacking the deck in your favor".

By the way...

As they tend to easily forget...

It helps to remind your employer as often as you can that...

At least you're there! :-)

Any one of these three ways, in and of itself, is enough to seriously increase your odds of being laid off should layoffs come to your company. All three, used in conjunction with one another, consistently, will almost certainly insure you a spot in the unemployment line.

More Readers' Questions Answered

Tony Mase here...

I received a whole bunch of questions in response to my answer to a reader's question I answered several weeks ago in a previous blog post (Another Reader's Questions Answered) regarding my Tony Mase's Inner Circle Members-Only Website.

Two reader's questions in particular pretty much summed up the vast majority of the questions I received...

Here they are along with my answers to them:

"Hi Tony,"

"How are you? First of all I would like to thank you for taking all the trouble to find all Wallace D. Wattles' books. If wasn't for you I wouldn't have the chance to read the BEST book I ever read in my life. I learned so much. Thank you very very much."

"I'm from Malaysia. I would like to enquire:"

"1. Can I join your Tony Mase's Inner Circle Members-Only Website even if I am not from United States?"

"2. I am not doing well (just quit my job). I read your terms and understand that you are looking for very serious committed members which I agree with you. What if I can't join some months due to insufficient funds, can I still join?"

"Thank you very much for all your good work and may GOD bless you in all areas."

For starters...

"How are you?"

I'm great, thank you for asking, and hope you are as well. :-)

"I would like to thank you for taking all the trouble to find all Wallace D. Wattles' books. If wasn't for you I wouldn't have the chance to read the BEST book I ever read in my life. I learned so much. Thank you very very much."

You're most welcome. :-)

"1. Can I join your Tony Mase's Inner Circle Members-Only Website even if I am not from United States?"

Yes, I have members from all around the world. As long as you have or can get a PayPal account in the country you're in and can send money from it you should (the key word here is *should* as I'm not familiar with PayPal's restrictions/rules in every country) be good to go.

"2. ... I read your terms and understand that you are looking for very serious committed members which I agree with you. What if I can't join some months due to insufficient funds, can I still join?"

Unfortunately, no and let me briefly explain why...

I don't hold anything back from my members on a month-to-month basis, therefore new members get immediate access to *everything* that's been added to the Tony Mase's Inner Circle Members-Only Website Member Area from day one, valuable content "older" members have been paying for and, through their "Private Members-Only Discussion Forum" posts, contributing to as it was added.

It would be *highly* unfair to them (and me) for someone to come in and get as many questions as they can answered, get all the personalized help they can get, read as many updates as they can read, download everything they can possibly download, and then cancel their membership at the end of the month, only to pull the same "stunt" again a few months later.

Quite frankly, I'm at the point in my life where I just plain won't tolerate people "riding on the backs" of good, honest, hardworking folks who play fair and by the rules. Thus, my "the door closes behind you" rule.

So...

As much as I'd love to have you as a member of my Tony Mase's Inner Circle Members-Only Website and personally working with you to help you get what you want in life, please wait until you're ready to make a consistent, long-term commitment before joining.

I do hope you understand. :-)

That being said...

"Thank you very much for all your good work and may GOD bless you in all areas."

You're most welcome and may God bless you in all areas as well!

Along the same line and representative of a number of questions I received...

"I have a strong desire to join the Tony Mase's Inner Circle Members-Only Website, but have no funds now to enable me pay $97 per month, nor am I capable of the amount in advance at this time."

"What can you do for students like me who are desirous of learning/studying the principles of Wallace D. Wattles?"

Good question. :-)

Here's the deal...

And this may sound a bit "harsh", for lack of a better word right now, but I don't intend it to be...

There's a way for practically anyone who really wants to join my Tony Mase's Inner Circle Members-Only Website to do so, you're just not seeing it.

Now...

I fully realize $97 a month sounds like an awful lot of money to some folks, maybe even a lot of folks, but, when you stop and think about it, $97 a month breaks down to roughly $3.23 a day, less than the price of a cup of gourmet coffee or a sandwich at a fast food joint (and we both know where they end up :-)), for which you get ongoing access to help I'd have to charge $500.00 - $1,000.00 or more an hour for if delivered individually (as in personal coaching or consulting) to make it worth my while because of other things it would take me away from doing that I could be doing.

Thus, when you look at it in those terms, $3.23 a day is an absolute bargain that, in my humble opinion, is doable by anyone who *really* wants to "do it".

So...

If that's what you really want to do...

My advice is simple...

As Wallace D. Wattles put it in The Science of Being Great:

"Think! Think!! THINK!!!"

The way is there for you to do it!

I hope this helps. :-)

With that...

Wallace D. Wattles on The Science of Getting Rich

"If you are poor, or if you are anxious about business or financial matters, you are recommended to study carefully the first volume of this series, The Science of Getting Rich. That will present to you a solution for your problems of this nature, no matter how large or how complicated they may seem to be. There is not the least cause for worry about financial affairs; every person who wills to do so may rise above want, have all he needs, and become rich."

- Wallace D. Wattles, The Science of Being Great

Wallace D. Wattles on Thought

"Thinking is the hardest and most exhausting of all labor; and hence many people shrink from it. God has so formed us that we are continuously impelled to thought; we must either think or engage in some activity to escape thought. The headlong, continuous chase for pleasure in which most people spend all their leisure time is only an effort to escape thought. If they are alone, or if they have nothing amusing to take their attention, as a novel to read or a show to see, they must think; and to escape from thinking they resort to novels, shows, and all the endless devices of the purveyors of amusement. Most people spend the greater part of their leisure time running away from thought, hence they are where they are. We never move forward until we begin to think."

- Wallace D. Wattles, The Science of Being Great
