How to Get Anything You Want (free ebook)

Cool ebook, thanks for sharing. Feel really positive about my goals now. I'll read it again when I'm feeling down.

Only one small gripe (you should probably make a note to self not to ask pedantic Einstein enthusiasts to proofread anything in future) :


Although it is impossible to say for certain, it is unlikely that Einstein did actually say that compound interest quote. It has become one of these well known facts that gets thrown about but isn't actually true (like the one about not swimming 30 mins after eating cos you'll get stomach cramps - BS, there is no scientific evidence, never has been). Turns out the phrase 'compound interest' wasn't coined until many years after Einstein's death. This is not to say that he did not respect the principal though - I do, and he was almost as smart as me.

I think it is not so much a direct quote, as Albert Einstein is often heard to say that interest on interest is a freaky thing.. [annotations are mine obviously]

"I know not what the seven wonders of the world are; but I know the eighth wonder is compound interest." (Baron de Rothchild)

Better?

Feedback for you:

How about adding a section on the benefits of regular giving? I think that is a critical component of getting what you want.


Thanks

Good point, diallist. The practice is also known as tithing which has some pretty heavy religious overtones but the concept is well entrenched in the more secular "Laws of Attraction".

Here's a nice little write-up about it.

Thanks opie! That's a great site.

It wasn't until last year, that i found out the answer to why tithing makes you wealthy..

Ok, I will make a note of that to add to the book.. It's a grow as it goes book..

Any typo's??

Excellent job twoblink! 30 years ago I was introduced to the 10% rule by an unlikely scource, a young independent trucker. Then 20 years later, I discovered The Richest Man In Babylon.

Think and Grow Rich has always been a favorite of mine.

Parkinson's Law is one of those things we're all aware of at some level, but it's real power comes when it's reduced to simplicity and spelled out in the manner you did.

Thanks much--this will definately be put in a place for easy referral.

I have updated it, and added a section on giving as request.

Again, I take my own advice, and I give this material freely, may you all use it to better your lives and the lives of everybody you touch.

Thanks twoblink. Much appreciated.

BTW, I found a 10 CD audio book of some lectures given by Napolean Hill to some college students. I wouldn't normally have given them a second look, but your words inspired me to purchase them. I'm glad I did! Very powerful stuff! Great to listen to over and over while commuting.

Thanks

You know I'm 18 years old, and my enitre life I've always had this motivation to buy things that will make me a better person. I think subconciously I realize that a pricetag is meaningless for the information that's inside. Money's just a reflection of how much gratitude you are showing towards the product anyways, no? No one else in my age category really seems to share the same outlooks so I was starting to wonder if I was crazy. Turns out I'm not!

Thank you for posting this. I've thought things similar to the Parkinson's principle for a while now, it's interesting to know there's actually a name for it! Investments against common stupidity (and inflation baby).

It's good to know you guys are out there, seriously. Sometimes I sit on the subway and wonder what it's like to be a part of the mass that is our population and not have any drive. I won't stop till the day I die.... and even then I'll still be making change with my legacy. That's a promise.

One of my students told me, "Reading about Parkinson's Law has so drastically changed my life that I don't think words can express it.."

I know Parkinson's Law has changed my life personally as well...

I think it should be part of school curriculum.

ur book is another book that i may list as life changing , apart from fountainhead and illusions

Hi Dial

I came across your profile and you seem like one guy who goes out of the way to help ppl. I am confused on the Vegas 4 hour channel trade and will like someone to guide me as I have been losing money for sometime and i want a reliable system to use. After many months of searching i have found the Vegas and from what people say it seems its gd, I have backtested 1hour but not the 4 hour. 1 hour too has its drawbacks bt i wana backtest 4 hours bt am unsure. So if you can help me out or PM me your email or something i can relate with you. It seems awkaward here as i dont wana create a new agenda of an old topic. I hope you can help me out or if you can recommend me a great system. I am a newbie and have been trading for 7months but losing and losing. not sure why.. prob dont have the luck cos i think it does affect it too. skills i think im honing it everytime bt still i need a mentor and i think u can be the perfect mentor as you are good and helpful as well as you know your stuff. Thanks so much !!!
Cheers

Hi twoblink,

I just wanted to thank you for the ebook you have put together.This ebook is nothing short of the usual quality you produce.
Love your work buddy,its a pleasure to read.
Take care.

Cheers,
Steve

Excellent reading enjoyment

I wish you a very prosperous new year

When my new website is done, I will be removing the book from here, and moving it there. The book will remain free. I have another book, that is even more dense and complex, that book is also free as well.

I've decided that the books I write which pertain to life and philosophy, will be free. The books I write on forex, I will charge for.

I have some people helping me with editing, and so I will try to unify copies of what I have floating out there.

I hope to finish either tomorrow (err.. I guess today, since it's 3:32am) or the following day.

The next free ebook is called "I Explain Everything", and that is what I try to do, explain every major "Law" which governs and controls your life. That will be made available on my website when I'm done as well.

I'm going to go give my eyes and body a break, and catch some zzzz's.

brilliant.

especially about the part "to be rich, you have to think about being rich"....

i remember a similar version of this. i learned it on the slopes.

snowboard instructor: k, look at where you want to go, and you'll head that way
me thinking to myself: yea right, whatever, let's get going....that's a huge tree....wait, why am i going that way, no no, not the tree, not the tree, crap, it's getting bigger **still looking at the tree**...**thump**

an hour later

friend: hey man, you alright? what happened?
Me: i didn't look away from the tree.
friend: ...wha?

twoblink,

Thank you for the e-book. I have read most of the stuff that is colated in the book, but it is always good to have it reminded. Very well written.

The Parkinson's law was something I was not familiar with. I know someone of the opposite sex in my house who would really benefit from it!! http://www.forexfactory.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Certainly made me more focused AGAIN (for the 100th time) for this year.

Happy and a Prosperous new year.

Regards,
K.

In order to be able to maintain just one point of distribution, I have removed the attachment of the book here, and have moved it to my website:

http://www.priceactionforex.com

The book is free, scroll to the very bottom and you can download it there (with minor corrections and edits).

Also, there is the 2nd free ebook called "I Explain Everything", an ebook I highly recommend to everybody. There is no obligation to buy my ebook, I don't even ask you for your email address. It's free for you to download and enjoy.

Hi Twoblink!!
Thank you for your effort to help traders. I bought your book and will study it thoroughly!
