How to Get What You Want

Define what you want. Act with purpose. Start moving toward the life you want.

In *How to Get What You Want*, Wallace D. Wattles presents a concise philosophy of success built around personal purpose, focused thought, confidence, and action. His central argument is that achievement begins within the individual—not simply in circumstances, possessions, or the help of others.

Wattles challenges listeners to form a clear picture of their goals, develop the confidence to pursue them, and make the most of the work in front of them. This classic of personal growth and success thinking explores the connection between belief, intention, disciplined action, and achievement.

This Modern English Edition updates dated language for clearer, more natural listening while preserving the original work's central ideas.

Human-narrated by Luke Meinier Dalofin—not synthetic AI voice narration—this edition presents Wattles's ideas in a direct, accessible performance. It also includes an original personal companion reflection at the end, offering an additional perspective on the ideas beyond Wattles's original text.

For listeners interested in self-improvement, goal-setting, success principles, personal development, and classic writing on the power of thought and purposeful action.
