Hi — I’m Shoo Rayner. If you’ve found your way to this site, you may well be like me, a creative person trying to make sense of things. Maybe you’re burnt out, maybe you’re questioning what “success” even means anymore. Maybe you just want a clearer way forward.
This site is a practical reimagining of The Science of Getting Rich — a 1910 book, written by Wallace Wattles. I’ve stripped out the archaic language and rewritten the core ideas for today: grounded in nature, creativity, and action.

I don’t promise quick fixes or magical thinking. I’m here to share what I’ve learned about how ideas become form – and how certainty (not hustle) is the real engine of change.
Where to begin
- Read the book – My modern interpretation of Wattles’ book is called The Certain Way. It’s short, clear, and designed to help you start immediately. You can get it from Amazon.co.uk or Amazon.com or get an ebook or signed copy in the uk from my store

What’s this really about?
The Certain Way is a mindset. A method. A shift in how you relate to your work, your time, and your future.
It’s not about manifesting stuff or choosing things from the catalogue of the universe.
It’s about learning how to think with direction – and how to keep going when things get real.
Start where you are now. Pick one thing. Read, watch, or just stop and think. You’re already on the path.
