"...Do not wait for an opportunity to be all that you want to be; be all that you can today, and when an opportunity to be more is offered to you, take it..." --Wallace D. Wattles

How to Promote Yourself, after being first published as Making the Man Who Can in 1909, was republished in 1914. This book shows how to become the man, or woman, who can live a successful, powerful life, and how to achieve it. Some of the themes are familiar from Wallace Wattles' other books, but repetition is the mother of learning.

These teachings are as inspiring as they were a century ago as evidenced by the 2006 hit movie and bestseller The Secret by Rhonda Byrne and the practice of many self-help gurus.
