  • Get Rich First. Think Later.

    What does it really mean to be rich? Most people think it’s about money. But it’s actually about something deeper – power, purpose, and a very specific way of thinking. In this video, I read the Preface to The Certain Way – a modern rewrite of Wallace D. Wattles’ 1910 classic The Science of Getting…

  • The Certain Way: A Practical Philosophy for a Richer, Creative Life – Introduction

    This video introduces the full reading of The Certain Way — my secular, updated version of Wallace D. Wattles’ 1910 book The Science of Getting Rich. Wattles’ original book was the spark behind generations of self-help ideas. But it’s written in outdated language. I’ve stripped it back to its core principles and rebuilt it for…

  • How to let things come to you – without manifesting or affirmations

    When you imagine something – a project, a relationship, a home – you don’t make it real by simply wishing for it. You make it real by creating channels that allow it to flow into your life. This is the core of The Certain Way, my modern take on Wallace D. Wattles’ 1910 classic The…

  • The Trouble With Certainty

    Absolute certainty invites Hubris and inevitably, Nemesis. In Greek mythology Hubris was the worst kind of pride or self-congratulatory pomposity, that would call to Nemesis, the goddess of vengeance and retribution, to come and sort things out. in short – Pride comes before a fall. Certainty, however, keeps us on a chosen path, heading in…

  • The Power of Gratitude

    The ideas in The Certain Way have been developed through observation, which is the basic tool of science. We look and observe and ask questions. Then we form a hypothesis, test it and observe again. Refining all the time until we come up with an answer that holds and predicts certain outcomes. Science is a…

Isn’t this just another self-help hustle?

That’s a fair question.

I’ve wrestled with it myself, especially since The Certain Way is based on The Science of Getting Rich, by Wallace Wattles. It sounds a bit like I’ve joined the ranks of content gurus selling success in exchange for clicks.

Here’s the truth: Yes, I want to make money from my book, website and YouTube videos. Not millions. Not a funnel. Enough to prove the method works.

But here’s the paradox: If I make money by teaching this method, doesn’t that feel like circular logic? Like I’m profiting from the message, not applying it?

Maybe, but I’d argue this is the work. Because I’m not selling hype, I’m testing a framework in public, to see whether clear, creative thought can still shape real results in the middle of the AI collapse.

I’m not offering shortcuts. I’m offering structure. I’m not pretending to be above the system. I’m just trying to navigate it with integrity and leave a clear path for anyone else who wants to do the same.

So no, this isn’t a hustle.

It’s fieldwork.
