Wallace Delois Wattles, born in 1860, was an American author and influential figure in the New Thought movement. Despite limited formal education, he became a key proponent of using thought to achieve personal success. His most famous work, The Science of Getting Rich (1910), remains a foundational text on creative visualization and wealth-building.In 1896, Wattles attended a convention in Chicago, where he met George Davis Herron, a Christian socialist minister. This encounter deeply influenced his exploration of the social teachings of Jesus. Wattles later wrote works like A New Christ, blending Christian ideals with socialist perspectives.Wattles practiced what he preached, using creative visualization to achieve his goals. His daughter, Florence, noted that he embodied the principles he wrote about in daily life. He passed away in 1911, leaving a legacy that continues to inspire self-help literature today.
