The Road to Greatness


Book Description

There can be no doubting Wallace D Wattles was a man far ahead of his time and a genius in every sense of the word. His insight and courage led him to write a book titled 'The Science of Being Great' in which he explains and shines light on the real nature of humanity, the destiny that awaits the awoken mind, the false limitations human beings set upon themselves and what is required to live a truly great life. Although one has renamed this original masterpiece 'The Road to Greatness', the book retains all of Wattles' tremendous vision and reasoning. Wallace D Wattles presents human beings, and consciousness in a totally new light whilst drawing attention to thought provoking but very accurate points that are often neglected. In addition, this hard to put down book presents an original and refreshing take on the Law of Attraction through creative and positive visualization/affirmation.
