The Man Who Taught Hollywood To Manifest - The Lost Teachings Of Anthony Norvell

In this 90‑minute documentary, host Brian Scott chronicles the life and work of Anthony Norvell (1908‑1977), a little‑known New York‑born occultist, psychologist, and "reality‑creation" teacher who lectured weekly for 25 years at Carnegie Hall and advised Hollywood’s elite, including Clark Gable, Mary Pickford, and a young Ronald Reagan. Scott outlines Norvell’s personal backstory— orphaned, educated at Columbia and UC, failed actor turned private counselor— and then details Norvell’s comprehensive manifestation system, which he called "magnetism" and later "telecosmic power." The video walks through each of Norvell’s signature techniques: the Golden Nuggets filing‑card exercise, the Millionaire’s Vow, the Treasure‑Chest visualization, the Magic‑Circle personal energy field, the Mirror‑Money treatment, the 24‑Golden‑Hours weekly schedule, the Telecosmograms (two‑word anchors), the Cosmic Scrapbook, the Art of Fantasia, and the Psychic Money Siphon. Scott illustrates each method with historic case studies of ordinary attendees— a maid, a pianist, a health‑food store clerk— who allegedly transformed into producers, songwriters, and entrepreneurs after applying the system. The documentary also explores Norvell’s occult writings (psychogenesis, alchemy, astral projection, exorcism) and his ethical framework, which places a self‑less “sin of self‑diminishment” at the core of his teachings. Throughout, Scott emphasizes the confidence and belief Norvell projected, arguing that this conviction is the hidden engine of the system. The video concludes with a call to join Scott’s Reality Revolution community and a promotion for an upcoming three‑day manifestation retreat in Nashville.
Chapters
Brief and physical, you stand in front of a mirror and speak your money statements directly into your own eyes. He pairs it with what he calls building the million-dollar personality, and his instruction is to begin immediately to think, talk, look, and act like somebody who already has a fortune, on the grounds that the deeper mind takes it as instruction for behavior as much as from words. The whole regimen appeared in Think Yourself Rich under the heading of magnetizing your aura with money know-how. Welcome to the Reality Revolution. I'm your host, Brian Scott, and today we're going to talk about the man who taught Hollywood how to manifest all the way back in the '60s. It's a Tuesday evening, New York City, and there are 500 people Crowding into Carnegie Hall. They come every week. Some of them have come every week for years. There are secretaries here and salesmen and a woman who works as a maid on Park Avenue. A man who ushers at these very lectures to earn extra money because he wants to produce motion pictures and has no idea how a person does that. There's a young pianist who plays before the lecture. He works part-time in a health food store, and he has a wife and 2 children, and he needs more money than the store gives him. The lights come down, and a man walks out who's going to tell them in the next 90 minutes that everything they want is already inside them, and there's a specific set of procedures for getting it out. He's well-dressed, and he speaks with total certainty. Some say he looks like a movie star. He tells them about a woman who needed $1,000 and had it within 24 hours from an uncle 3 states away who had no idea she needed anything. He tells them about a housewife of 50 who had never held a brush and became one of the most collected painters in Southern California. He tells them about a girl who wanted a mink coat and had one inside of a week without spending a dollar. Then he gives them the method. Beyond inspiration, a method. Filing cards you carry in your pocket. A small box you keep beside your bed with colored glass in it. A scrapbook with your own photograph pasted onto a page beside Rockefeller and Onassis. A check for $1 million made out to you and signed by God. The people in that room write it all down. The usher becomes a movie producer at Universal Studios within 3 months and puts Rock Hudson in his first picture. The pianist writes a song called Till the End of Time and it becomes one of the biggest records of the decade, and Hollywood hires him to write for the studios. The maid from Park Avenue signs up for a night typing class for reasons she cannot explain and ends up as the traveling secretary to a famous novelist. Another man in that room founds a publishing company and turns down $4 million for it. And the man on the stage does this every week for roughly 25 years in Carnegie Hall. His clients in Hollywood include Clark Gable, Tyrone Power, Mary Pickford, and a contract player at Warner Brothers named Ronald Reagan, who's going to become President of the United States. He has his own television program, just like Neville Goddard, possibly the first of its kind in history, and you have almost certainly never heard of his name. I have read every single book written by Anthony Norvell, and you can find many of them on the channel. How to Control Your Destiny, How to Develop Psychic Powers, The Universal Secrets of Telecosmic Power. I've read the entire books. You can find them on the channel. I've also read some of my favorite chapters with techniques that I found incredibly powerful. And tonight I'm going to go through his system and bring you as many techniques as I can, as many methods as he taught in that hall, compiled into one place. So when you walk away with it, you will have almost all of it. He wrote 31 books. But he wrote some incredible books on reality creation and the Law of Attraction. His name is Anthony Norvell. Start with where he came from. Anthony Norvell is born in 1908 in Hawley, New York. His parents die when he is 5 years old. He's placed in an orphanage and he stays there for years watching other children get adopted by comfortable families while nobody takes him. When a family finally takes him, it is to work on a farm. He leaves the farm for New York City. He works nights and puts himself through school during the days. He studies literature, psychology and philosophy at Columbia University and later at the University of California. What he actually wants is to be an actor. Here's how he tells it himself: Then it was something of a hobby. The stage was my goal. I began to hang around the stage doors and theatrical agencies in order to make myself known to and tolerated by the players. I read their charts. He learns astrology to get past the stage door. There are so many different similarities between Anthony Norvell and Neville Goddard beyond just the name. Both were actors. Both were in this particular era. Both taught astrology and inevitably became incredible teachers. Anthony Norvell wrote about 20 more books. He never becomes an actor. He becomes something considerably stranger— the private counselor to the people who did. By his early 20s, he is in Hollywood and he meets Mary Pickford. Understand what Pickford is in that moment. She's the most famous woman in the world. Co-founder of United Artists, she and Douglas Fairbanks live at Pickfair, where an invitation is the closest thing America has to being received at court, and where the dinner guests include Einstein and Amelia Earhart, the Duke and Duchess of Windsor. Chaplin lives next door. Their marriage is the most famous marriage on the planet, and when it comes apart, one of the people she talks to is Norvell. She introduces him to everyone. From there, the client list grows. Clark Gable, Tyrone Power, Ronald Reagan. He writes columns for the fan magazines. He becomes, in his own description, the advisor to the Hollywood stars. And he says that out of the 17 richest people in Hollywood at the time, worth from $50 to $100 million each, 7 of them received his methods early in their careers. He spends 25 years researching psychic phenomena in every branch of it— telepathy, clairvoyance, clairaudience, precognition, telekinesis, automatic writing. He travels to India, Egypt, Tibet, and Greece gathering material. He studies the lives of 10,000 wealthy and famous people over 25 years to find out what they had in common. And then he goes to New York and starts lecturing at Carnegie Hall. Weekly to packed houses for roughly a quarter of a century. He gets a television show on KTTV in California called The Norvell Show: The Power of Your Subconscious Mind. He may well be the first person in this field to have his own television program decades before the format existed. He was the original influencer, and across 31 books published mostly by Parker Publishing, In that gloriously overheated '60s and '70s style that's so different than other metaphysical books, he lays out one of the most complete systems for changing a life that anybody has ever assembled. So let's go through it. The foundation first, because every technique rests on it. Norvell's model is magnetism. His claim is that the same force holding the planets in their orbits operates inside the human mind, and that a mind can be charged the way a magnet is charged, and that a charged mind pulls toward itself whatever it has been charged with. He identifies 4 separate forms of it: mental magnetism, the desire itself, the charge you put on your brain by wanting something with intensity; physical magnetism, the energy in your body and the vitality that lets you act on that desire; material magnetism, your relationship with money and objects and the intelligence Handling all of them. And spiritual magnetism— faith in a higher power and alignment of your goals with something larger than yourself. His observation from studying 10,000 rich people is that all of them used mental magnetism, and the great ones used all 4. Then there's a second half of the model which comes from Universal Secrets of Telecosmic Power, which you can find on the channel, and which is the strangest and most interesting thing he ever wrote. He calls it Telecosmic power. The word comes from tele, from telepathy, and cosmic, from the Greek cosmos, meaning the totality of the universe. His description of it: telecosmic power is the mysterious intelligence that flows throughout the universe, working under cosmic laws. It molds and shapes the entire universe, and you have the power to imprint your own mental commands on this invisible protoplasm and create anything that you desire. He describes it working in nature the way a command works. Telecosmic power speaks to the seed in springtime and says, awaken, and the seed awakens. It speaks to the acorn and says, become an oak, and the acorn becomes a center of magnetism and draws to itself every chemical it requires. It speaks to the caterpillar and says, stop crawling in the dust of your mortality and become a golden-winged butterfly. And his position is that this same intelligence responds to a human being far more readily than it responds to a flower or a chick, because a human being can address it deliberately. Everything that follows is his answer to one question: how do you address it? First is the Golden Nuggets, the foundation technique that appears throughout his entire Catalog. Norvell calls them golden nuggets, and the practice is physical. You take a filing card. On it, you write a single clear statement of what you want in specific figures. Nowadays, you can just use your phone, but something about having paper and writing it down is powerful. And you might write, I will make $100,000 or more. I really like the or more because you're not just being specific, you're giving yourself a floor. Or something higher. I will make $100,000 or more. Underneath it, you write the supporting instruction in full sentences. I desire $100,000 or more to fulfill my money goals in the immediate future. I wish to receive some big idea that will reveal to me the method by which I can begin the flow of gold immediately to meet all my needs. I'm going to say it one more time. You would write down something similar to, but you can do it in your own fashion. I desire $100,000 or more to fulfill my money goals in the immediate future. I wish to receive some big idea that will reveal to me the method by which I can begin the flow of gold immediately to meet all my needs. Then you carry it, that card in your pocket. You read it morning, noon, and night. You tape it where you will see it. He's emphatic about specificity. If you want your own business, name the business: interior decorating, a restaurant, a beauty parlor, a machine shop. He says the deeper mind will program it inside its computer-like structure and release the information back to your conscious mind that lead you into that exact business. And he adds something practical that most teachers leave out. He says, if you have no idea what business you should be in, leave that blank and let the deeper mind choose because it knows your unique talents better than you do. There's a woman in his files who does exactly that, a secretary at a manufacturing concern, tired of a small weekly salary. No idea what her talent is. She writes down that she wishes to be shown how to go into a productive business making $15,000 a year, which was a lot at that time. Enough for her 2 children, a house in the country, a car, and future security. 5 minutes, 3 times a day, for 4 weeks. Then she takes a business flight to Chicago and sits beside a sales representative for a household products manufacturer who is opening offices in new cities. By the time the plane arrives, he has hired her to run the New York office. She passes the $15,000 and moves on to training hundreds of salesmen aiming at $50,000. Then there's the Millionaire's Secret Vow of Riches, and I have the guided meditation on the channel, Taking the Vow. It's an amazing morning meditation that we used to do on the channel. For years, and I've added it into several other deep sleep meditations and other meditations because the vow is so powerful. He instructs you to repeat a vow every day for a month until it becomes automatic. And he says every person who has achieved great fortune made some version of this pact with their own deeper mind, sometimes without knowing they were doing it. Here's what the vow actually says. I now take the Millionaire's Vow for riches. I recognize that there are infinite treasures in the cosmic cornucopia of riches and abundance. I draw upon the unlimited resources of the universe for my own enrichment. I desire unlimited supplies of money and material goods so that I may use my riches to help my family and to give something of value to the world. I recognize that I am only a channel for the release of God's treasure for the enrichment of the world. I therefore vow that I shall do only good with my future fortune. I take an oath that I shall use money to help uplift those who are downtrodden, to liberate those imprisoned by poverty, to idealize the standards of the world, to strive to help children, the sick, The poor, the imprisoned, the blind, and crippled, so they may know greater joy. I shall use my money and earthly treasures to educate, inspire, and uplift humanity. To help bring peace to the world. To banish discrimination and racial prejudice. To bring about equality for all, and to use my supply and abundance for the good of humanity and the greater glory of God. That is the central vow of a mass-market money book published in 1975. The oath at the heart of this wealth system is an ethical one, and it names racial prejudice specifically That belongs aside the first of his 10 Secrets of Money Magnetism, which is worth stating on its own because of where he places it. And I have a whole episode on that. The first secret is a desire to do good for the world and help others. Ahead of discipline, ahead of belief, ahead of visualization, his entire study of 10,000 fortunes produced service as the opening principle. There's a story he tells about the vow that I keep returning to. A man marries at 24 with no money at all, so poor he cannot afford an engagement ring. On the wedding day, he gives his wife a check made out for a date 25 years in the future for $25,000 and tells her to cash it then. They both forget about it. 25 years later, she finds the check while going through papers, and on their anniversary, she takes it to the bank. And cashes it without a moment of doubt. By then, he is a millionaire. Then there's the Golden Hall of Fame. This one is unusual enough that I have found it nowhere else. You obtain a scrapbook. Into it, you paste photographs, something we don't have a lot of anymore because we keep all of our pictures on the phone. But he would take photographs and names of people who are rich, famous, successful, or gifted. in a way you admire. Movie stars, industrialists, inventors, composers, singers, athletes, scientists, political figures, religious leaders— anybody whose pattern you want to follow. If you have no photograph, write the name. And then here's the move: you paste your own photograph on the same page with them. Every night before you go to bed, you look at yourself among them and you speak the following: I now elevate myself to the Golden Hall of Fame with the immortals, the rich, the successful, and I program my subconscious mind to make me worthy of a place alongside these illustrious persons. I ask for the talents and the riches and recognition that these people have earned and promise myself that I shall strive to be worthy of the high goals and the riches that I ask for. I have confidence in my ability to rise to high places, and I now accept the glory and recognition That shall be mine. He was just so good at writing affirmations on the same level as Joseph Murphy. I really think some of my best affirmations that I've used, I've totally used his constructs, his wording, because they're powerful, they're passionate, they're easy to say, that evoke a certain feeling within you. Notice what he built into this. The request and the promise to be worthy of it arrive in the same breath. He never lets you ask for elevation without accepting the obligation that goes with it. Then there is his treasure chest technique. You get a small box, a cufflink box, a jewel box, anything that closes. You label it my treasure chest. Into that box, you put a physical representation of everything you intend to have. A small piece of gold or silver, a bag of colored glass standing in for diamonds or pearls, rubies, emeralds. A slip of paper reading, the deed to my dream home. Another reading, 1,000 shares of a real stock you find listed in the financial pages. Then 10 pieces of paper cut to the size of currency. With the figure $10,000 written in each of the 4 corners of the paper. Those 10 sheets add to $100,000. If you want the million-dollar version, write $100,000 in the corners instead. And then every night before sleep, you open the box and you count your treasures and you daydream about how you will use them. When I read this in a previous episode, there were people that went and tried this and came back incredibly excited about the results. Every night before you sleep, you open the box. That's what I love about it. The young woman who tests this wants a large diamond engagement ring. Her fiancé cannot afford one. She puts a piece of glass in her box and labels it a diamond. And adds the future home. Within one week, her future mother-in-law telephones and asks her to come over. When she arrives, the woman produces a small jewel case and says that something made her drive to her safety deposit box the previous day and retrieve a ring her husband gave her 30 years ago, which she has never worn since he died. Inside is a large blue-white diamond. She says, here, I want you to have it. After the marriage, the woman gives her a string of real pearls, a ruby ring, and a diamond and sapphire pin. All after she had done the treasure box technique. Another famous technique is the million-dollar check. Small, strange, and one of the best things he ever came up with. You write out a check to yourself for one million dollars, Jim Carrey style, but you sign it. God, the universal banker. You carry it in your wallet at all times, and you look at it three times a day, and you speak this: I now possess a million dollars or more in cashable assets. The resources of the universe are mine, as well as anyone else's—the gold, silver, oil, iron, uranium, and all the products of Earth. Including agricultural ones, are mine. I possess the free parks, the museums, art galleries, public libraries, and theaters. I own the subway and bus and other transportation. I possess the millions of dollars worth of entertainment on radio and television, which I may have every day of my life. I now claim my divine inheritance and realize that now, in this moment, I have more than a million dollars in assets which I may use and enjoy freely. Look what he does there. He starts with a fantasy figure and then walks you into an accurate accounting of things you genuinely have access to— the parks, the libraries, the museums, the transport, broadcast entertainment. By the end of the paragraph, the million dollars has stopped being a wish and turned into reality in your own life. A confirmation. Another technique is his money awareness technique, the simplest in the catalog and one he returns to across many books. You cut pieces of paper to the size of currency, label each one $100,000, stack them until you have a million. You handle the stack. His reasoning is that most people have never once held a million dollars, so the number remains abstract. And an abstract number cannot be manifested because the deeper mind has no reference for it. Handling the paper builds what he calls money awareness, which is the physical familiarity that has to precede the actual sum. He puts it plainly: get used to thinking in terms of big money and big success. He recommends practicing with simulated bills from $1,000 up to $100,000 until the million-dollar consciousness is genuinely established. Another technique is his scrapbook of destiny, the vision board 40 years before the phrase existed, with 2 additions that most modern versions leave out. You take an ordinary scrapbook. Into it, you paste every picture you can find of houses, cars, furs, furnishings, and objects you intend to attract. Additionally, you paste in articles about how wealthy people actually built their fortunes. Items from financial pages, stories from Fortune and Forbes, accounts of methods rather than results. His reasoning is that the deeper mind absorbs the technique alongside the image and later guides you to take steps that produce money rather than simply making you want money. The second addition from Telecosmic Power— he calls it the cosmic scrapbook of destiny. He ties it to career. If you want to be an architect, Fill it with buildings. If you want to design cars, fill it with cars. If you want to be an investment specialist, fill it with the lives of Morgan and Rockefeller and Getty and Baruch, studying their mistakes so you can avoid them and their inspirations so you can duplicate them. Then there's the art of fantasia. Here, Norvell separates himself from almost everybody writing in this era, and this is the technique I would give somebody first. He uses the Italian word fantasia, and he draws a hard line between it and ordinary visualization. He explains, this art of fantasia is different from the mere act of imagining what it would be like to have $10,000. In the art of fantasia, you mentally project yourself into the future scene and actually experience the emotional impact of how you would feel and act if you suddenly had that money. So he was teaching the future self technique. Ordinary imagining, watching the scene. Fantasia stands inside it, and he gives you the sequence. You sit quietly. You see yourself receiving the money. Then you mentally spend it. You see yourself putting it in the bank. You see yourself drawing on it. You see yourself buying the specific things. His comment on why this works: it seems to trigger some subconscious power that causes you to do the things you were fantasizing. That's the mechanism stated clearly. The interior experience produces the exterior behavior, and the behavior produces the result. Then we have his telecosmograms, which is an amazing technique that I developed into an affirmation episode, also into a sleep Meditation. It's one of the more sophisticated things in his entire body of work, and I genuinely find remarkable given when he wrote it. In Universal Secrets of Telecosmic Power, Norvell builds a 2-stage system. Stage 1 is installation. You write out a full paragraph or longer of instructions to your deeper mind, then you read it 7 times, the whole thing. He says that after 7 readings, it becomes deeply imprinted, and you are now programmed the way a computer is programmed with data. Stage 2 is the trigger. Once installed, a 2-word key fires the entire paragraph automatically. You never have to recite the whole thing again. You say the 2 words and the complete instruction releases. That's anchoring. Bandler and Grinder were assembling NLP in California while this book was going to press in 1974. Norvell arrived at the same mechanism independently. from an entirely different direction and called it the telecosmogram, and he built an enormous vocabulary using them. Here's the working set: I unite, for bringing your conscious, subconscious, and superconscious minds into agreement and for harmony in a home or office. I receive, for money from unexpected sources. I desire, the master key, the one he uses more than any other. I achieve. For high goals and great work. I create for artistic and creative talent. I progress. I advance. I earn for promotion, recognition, and income. I declare for peace of mind when problems arrive. I remove for obstacles and friction with other people. I conquer for situations, machinery, and circumstances that refuse to cooperate. I adjust for what cannot be changed. I transmute for turning a bad condition into a good one. I dissolve for problems in a marriage that belong to neither partner. I cooperate for clashes of will. I trust. I release. I praise. I love. The 4 for romantic relationships: I dare. I do. I am. I discover. I involve. I elevate. And here are the actual paragraphs attached to a few of them so you can use them tonight and you can understand Exactly how he did this. Take I unite first. The entire paragraph that he read 7 times before is, my conscious mind now unites perfectly with the subconscious and superconscious minds that perform miracles for me. I unite my mind with the cosmic intelligence that rules the universe. I invoke its aid now to bring me instant guidance. I wish to have my right work, my right income, the perfect love in marriage, the larger sums of money to achieve financial independence. I wish to have my problems solved and to create the perfect destiny which I desire. Here is I Remove. All obstacles and obstructions are now instantly removed. I am the center of peace and calm. No outer force has power to disturb my inner tranquility. I remove friction. I remove opposition. I remove discord and anger and dwell in a core of inner stillness in which all my problems are instantly dissolved by the light of truth and justice. And then I conquer. All persons, conditions, and objects in my environment are subject to a higher law. Than the material and physical. I invoke that law in this moment. I conquer my temper and tongue. I conquer time and space. I remove all obstructions and impediments and see only the perfect flow of the stream of consciousness, removing every negative force from my mind, body, and environment. For I Release, which he gives to a couple struggling with possessiveness, My mind is now released from all sense of possessiveness. Love must be freely given and freely taken, and I cannot hold that which is not mine. I now release my mate, having full trust that he will want to share every joyous experience with me fully. Read each one seven times. After that, the two words do the whole job. He also gives you telecosmographs, which are the visual counterpart. A telecosmogram is a word. A telecosmograph is a picture. You project both. Another technique is the cosmic worksheet, the organizing document for the whole system. You sit quietly in meditation and write down every single thing you want telecosmic power to produce. You label the page My Cosmic Worksheet. You read it every morning on rising and every night before sleep. And then during the day, whenever you want to fire it, you say 2 words: I desire. His model worksheet reads like this, and each line begins with those same 2 words: My right work and the release of the gifts and talents that fit me for that work. A beautiful home for my family. And myself, tastefully decorated in a peaceful neighborhood which I own and can pay for successfully. A car named by make and model and color materialized easily within the next 2 months. An education for my children. Peace of mind and happiness in my home and my work. My true romance and soulmate. Beautiful clothes and jewelry named specifically. A trip to Europe this year with the money arriving from an unexpected source. Intellectual growth and wisdom. The right books, the right courses. Then his instruction on maintenance, which is the part people skip. Each week you scratch out what has arrived and prepare a new worksheet with new items. The man who ushered at his lectures put down that he wanted to produce motion pictures and admitted he had no money whatsoever. Within 3 months, he had optioned the rights to a novel called The Cup and the Sword for $500 on a promise to pay later. Sold it to Universal and produced the picture as This Earth Is Mine. He had programmed in advance that he wanted Rock Hudson and Jean Simmons. Both of them starred in it. Then there is the Magic Circle technique. This is the technique he was most famous for in Hollywood, and it appears in Cosmic Magnetism and his book Think Yourself Rich. He describes it as the personal energy field that surrounds a person and determines what others feel when the person enters a room. His claim is that every star, every successful performer, every person of unusual attraction has one, and that it can be constructed deliberately. There's a story attached to it that I want to give you exactly as he tells it. He's at RKO Studios being photographed with a red-haired young actress for a movie magazine. They have lunch afterward in the commissary, and she is downcast because she has just been told That day, that her contract is being terminated. He tells her to stop worrying. And he spends about an hour programming her with what he calls his magic circle, showing her how to release magnetism from her higher mind centers. She brightens up considerably and then she jokes with him, now, Norvell, with your magic circle, I shall become a big star. And do you know what I'm going to do? Someday I'm coming back to RKO, buy the studio, and fire everyone who just fired me! They both laugh. He asks her name because he wants to follow her career. She says, sure, my name is Lucille Ball. 15 years later, she and Desi Arnaz bought RKO. Norvell says a reputed $15 million. The recorded figure is closer to $6 million. Either way, she came back and bought the studio that let her go and went on to become the biggest star television had produced. Then there's the mirror money treatment. Brief and physical, you stand in front of a mirror and speak your money statements directly into your own eyes. He pairs it with what he calls building the million-dollar personality, and his instruction is to begin immediately to think, talk, look, and act like somebody who already has a fortune, on the grounds that the deeper mind takes it As instruction for behavior as much as firm words. The whole regimen appeared in Think Yourself Rich under the heading of Magnetizing Your Aura with Money Know-How. Then there's the 24 Golden Hours. This one is pure practicality. I think it's underrated. Norvell points out the arithmetic. You have 24 hours. 8 go to sleep, 8 go to work, 3 go to food, 2 go to entertainment, That leaves roughly 3 hours a day that belongs entirely to you, and he says most people never find their road to riches because they spend that gold on nothing. So he gives you a weekly schedule. On Monday, learn 3 new words you can use in writing and conversation. On Tuesday, contact 4 people by telephone or letter about a business idea, a sale, or an interview. On Wednesday, study the life of one important and wealthy person and learn their methods. On Thursday, sit for half an hour and receive guidance on improving your work or your life, or an invention or improvement to a product you use every day. On Friday, study the business section of Fortune or Forbes and learn how people made fortunes. On Saturday, write 2 letters to future prospects who might use your services or merchandise your product. On Sunday, give thanks and appraise your true riches: peace of mind, love, Happiness, health, friends, family, and the gifts you were given. 7 days, 1 task each, and the whole thing takes under an hour a day. The woman who tells him she has no time because of her housework and 2 children gets the story of a nurse working 12-hour night shifts with 3 children who came home each morning, made breakfast, packed lunches, sent the children to school, and then sat at her desk and wrote until she fell asleep. from exhaustion. That nurse was Mary Roberts Rinehart, and she earned $5 million from her novels and film rights. The woman's response: I get the point. If I want something badly enough, I will find the time to get it. Another technique is the Law of the Double Return. Norvell attributes this one to Howard Hughes and devotes a chapter to it in his book Think Yourself Rich. The principle comes from agriculture. A seed placed in the ground returns more than the seed. The harvest exceeds the planting, always, in every field, without exception. His application is that money and effort behave the same way when they are placed correctly, and that the wealthy operate on the expectation of a doubled return rather than an equal one. He connects it to what he calls the Money Pyramid and the Golden Law of Alchemy. He pairs it with the Cosmic Law of Projection, which is his term for releasing a creative idea into the world and letting it multiply on its own. Another technique he has is the psychic money siphon. This one is beautiful. Almost nobody's heard it. Norvell asks you to consider your breakfast. The coffee comes from Brazil. The eggs come from a farm you never visited. The milk comes from a cow you never met. The bacon comes from pigs raised specifically for you. The bread comes from wheat grown in the Midwest by people whose names you will never know. All those people worked for you this morning, and you made no conscious effort whatsoever. That, he says, is a siphon already operating in your life, drawing goods towards you from every corner of the planet through channels you never arranged. And his instruction is to recognize that the machinery already exists and simply widen what travels through it. Turn the same siphon toward money, property, and opportunity. He tells the story of a man in a poverty-stricken village in Greece who used the psychic money siphon and drew what amounted to a fortune in that place. He pairs it with the cosmic telebank and the cosmic storehouse of riches, which are his terms for the same idea at scale. There's also a cosmic catalog from which he instructs you to place orders for specific items. And the woman who used it received a $1,500 fur coat, a refrigerator, A bedroom suite and a color television. Before we go into the occult material, this list deserves stating whole because it shows you what he actually thought a successful life was. From Telecosmic Power: The 11 Essentials: your right work, money and adequate reward, love fulfillment, marriage and the rearing of a family, friends and social reciprocity, creative gifts and talents, health and youthful energy. Peace of mind and peace of soul. Intellectual riches: self-development, happiness, and pleasure. Spiritual riches and love of God. 11, and only one of them is money. He also gives the 10 basic desires that trigger the deeper mind into action: to achieve personal success, to win recognition and acceptance, to love and be loved, to make money, to discover new experience, to create something beautiful and enduring, To find peace and happiness, to give something of value to others, to improve your intellect and creative powers, and to evolve spiritually. Then there is his occult material. We get to the part of the catalog that makes Norvell distinct from anybody else in his genre, because most of his contemporaries stayed safely inside psychology and went straight past it. The occult sciences His book about how to get what you want through occult powers, published in 1971, contains chapters on all the following: psychogenesis, his term for the creative power that brings something from the invisible into the visible. He describes it as releasing a cyclone of infinite power with the cosmic mind, using the mystic substance of the building blocks of the universe to create whatever a person requires. Then there's occult alchemy. Transmutation applied to circumstance rather than metal. His claim is that an undesirable situation can be converted into a prosperous one through the same principle the alchemists were describing, and that the metal was always the symbol rather than the subject. Then he speaks of occult entrancement, a method for promotions, good luck, prosperity, and happiness. He has a chapter on astral projection. He treats soul travel as a trainable skill and lists the benefits as wisdom, freedom, spiritual growth, And the loss of the fear of death. He has a section on psychometry, something I'm fascinated with— reading an object with your hands— which he applies specifically to the discovery of hidden treasures and lost articles. He talks of psychoperception, his term for developing clairvoyance, and karma and reincarnation applied to improving your present life rather than an abstraction. And then in 1977, he publishes something called Exorcism: Overcome Black Magic with White Magic. Which is genuinely rare and contains his position on the darker end of all this. His view stated in Telecosmic Power is that curses and blessings are a scientific reality operating under law, and that the same force runs in both directions depending on the intention behind it. His 10 secrets of telecosmic alchemy include turning bad luck to good luck and black magic to white, along with healing physical sickness, removing obstacles, breaking bad habits, releasing personal magnetism, and clearing negative emotion. In his book, How to Develop Your Psychic Powers, which you can find on the channel, he goes further into the practical side— molding your destiny through precognition, tuning into other people's thoughts through telepathy, tapping what he calls the psychic fountain of youth, attracting and influencing important people, discovering lost articles and hidden treasure, taking astral journeys into the past and future. using psychic memory banks that exist in the universe. And his framing for the whole psychic side is worth noting because it explains why he takes it seriously. He spent 25 years running experiments with thousands of people who came to those Carnegie Hall lectures, and his conclusion was that the higher intelligence can be programmed to transmit information to anybody who wants to use it. He combined the ancient material he gathered in India and Egypt and Tibet and Greece with what was then the newest laboratory work in meditation, biofeedback, and alpha brainwaves research. That combination is rarer than it sounds. Most people in this field pick one side. In the middle of Telecosmic Power, in a chapter about avoiding problems, Norvell writes one sentence that I consider one of the best in his catalog. He's discussing the belief that suffering is some kind of divine punishment. And he says this: In a study of cosmic laws and spiritual phenomena, we learned there is only one sin. This is the sin against your own higher subconscious mind when you negate its power, diminish its glory, weaken its strength, and dim its glorious vision for your future. One sin. It is self-diminishment. Every time you tell yourself the story about why it will never work, for somebody like you. Every time you make the joke at your own expense, every time you look at what you want and decide in advance that you are the wrong person to have it— that is the only offense he recognizes. He follows it immediately with the case of a woman who came to him certain she had been cursed since birth, on the strength of an astrologer telling her She was ruled by Saturn. He refutes the whole premise. He tells her Saturn can be transmuted through self-discipline. He names people born in the same sign who built enormous lives. He gives her 5 keywords and one she later invents herself. I transmute the planet Saturn into good luck and happy experiences. I gain from being born under this lucky star, for I become disciplined, cautious, and fearless. It gives me power to change my life and gives me the patience and forbearance to put up with that which I cannot change. She said this over and over again. She came back a month later and says the change in her was astonishing. And then there's the counterweight. Novell was selling wealth, but he put a limit on it in print in the same books. And I want to give you that because it is the thing that makes him trustworthy. He calls it the million-dollar inventory, and he instructs you to take stock of what you Already have that money cannot buy. Peace of mind. Friends who like you for yourself rather than your money. Good health without pain or anxiety about the future. Love. Happiness. Marriage. Family. Creative work you enjoy and would do without payment. Peace of soul and faith. He notes that in the years before he wrote it, 5 multimillionaires had killed themselves. And he tells a story about sitting in a barbershop when a very rich man comes in. Everybody rushes to serve him. The manicurist, the shoeshine boy, the barber practically bowing. Diamond stickpin in the shape of a horseshoe. Big diamond ring. Tailor-made clothes. He tips everyone generously on the way out. The barber turns to Norvell and asks whether he knows who that was. A racketeer. Worth millions. Racehorses. Beer trucks. Numbers. And the barber tells him the rest. The man has high blood pressure. He's had 2 severe heart attacks. His wife has recently run off with a younger man. And his 6-year-old son has been run over by a truck. One of his own beer trucks. The barber's line: that man's money can buy him everything but love, peace of mind, health, happiness and his son's life. Narvel's own addition afterward is one sentence, and he says he wanted to add it out loud in the shop. His money can buy him everything but heaven. Then there's the people in that room. Let me give you the rest of them, because the transformations are the reason his book stayed in print. Melvin Powers came to Carnegie Hall lectures wanting to write and eventually to publish. He wrote a book called Dynamic Thinking, founded Wilshire Book Company, and Norvell reports that he turned down $4 million for the business. Powers became one of the most significant figures in 20th century mail-order publishing. Then there's Louis Kotlow, who came for a personal interview about his career. Norvell got what he called a psychic flash and told him he should be an explorer. Kotlow said that was the furthest thing from his mind and that his entire background pointed elsewhere. A few months later, he had an opportunity to go to Africa with cameras rather than guns to film pygmies and other tribes in the deep jungle. He came back with a Technicolor feature that played in theaters across the country, wrote a best-selling book about it, and went on to the Amazon, New Guinea, and the Australian interior. Then there's Ted Mossman, who was a young pianist playing before the lectures, working part-time in a health food store with a wife and 2 children and an insufficient income. He began projecting that he would succeed as a composer. He wrote Till the End of Time. It became the bestseller of the era. Hollywood hired him to write movie themes, and he moved to a house in the San Fernando Valley. Then there's the maid from Park Avenue who learned the method in 1942, used it nightly for a week, and found herself walking past a high school she had passed 100 times before, noticing a sign for adult evening classes. She enrolled in typing without knowing why. When the course finished, something moved her to look at the personals, where a famous woman author was advertising for a typist to serve as a traveling companion and social secretary. Then there's the housewife of 50 who was a widow living alone on a teacher's pension near the beach, comfortable and feeling useless with no future goal. Norvell suggested painting. She protested that she had no talent. He gave her the programming and asked her to report back. 2 years later, she was painting eucalyptus and shimmering water. 3 years later, she was among the most sought-after women artists in Southern California with more orders than she could fill. Then there's the man who rebuilt London Bridge. Came into the Los Angeles lectures wanting a creative idea that would bring pleasure to millions. On a trip to London, he noticed the bridge was being demolished. Bought it, transported it to Arizona, and reassembled it on the Colorado River, where hundreds of thousands of people now walk across it every year. Then there's the nurse in New York who wrote down that she wanted a mink coat in winter. When she could afford nothing. Within a week, an agency sent her to a wealthy Park Avenue home to care for a dying man. On a bitter February night, his wife saw her putting on a thin cloth coat, went to a closet, and returned with a mink that had cost $5,000 new. The leather worker from Texas was selling in a shop for commission with no capital and no prospect of a larger house. Norvell asks him the Bible question, What hast thou in thine house? He had a leather sewing machine and the skill to make a wallet worth $150 from ostrich hide. He printed cards, worked evenings in his apartment, gave a free handbag to a friend who worked as a studio carpenter, and that friend handed a card to a cowboy star who ordered 6 pairs of boots, a holster, and a suede jacket. The star was impressed enough to finance a shop. 3 years later, he had one of the most successful leather businesses On the West Coast. Then there's the woman with the drapes who was left by her husband with 2 small children, no work, no money, and no visible way out. Her only skill was needlework that she had done for free for friends. Norvell gave her the programming. 2 weeks later, a woman for whom she had made curtains at no charge introduced her to a wealthy homeowner furnishing an entire working in a rented loft. And she now lives in Beverly Hills. He tells the story of the young man out of prison wandering into a New York lecture at 26, unable to name a single talent he possessed. His deeper mind reminded him of the prison years. He wrote them down, weaving them into a story. Typing was beyond him, so a friend retyped the manuscript. The novel sold 1,000 copies. A motion picture paid him $85,000 for the rights and hired him to write the screenplay. So many stories that he gave, so much that we can utilize that really prove the power of his techniques. So how do you actually start? You have the whole system now. Here's how I would put it into practice, drawn from his instructions across the books. Tonight, write one card down or take a piece of paper and rip it out with a specific figure And a specific outcome. Say or more. I want $50,000 or more. Whatever it is, say or more. Carry it in your pocket. Read it on waking, at midday, and before sleep. Take the vow. Read the Millionaire's Secret Vow of Riches once a day for the next 30 days out loud, including the part about what you will do with the money once it arrives. He was clear that ethical clause is what powers it. Build the box— a small container, a piece of metal, some colored glass, the paper deeds, the paper currency with the figures in the corners. Open it before bed and handle what is inside. Install 2 telecosmograms. Pick the 2 that fit your situation. Read each full paragraph 7 times on paper in one sitting. From then on, use only the 2 words Make the worksheet, the cosmic worksheet we mentioned. Sit quietly and write everything you want. Read it morning and night. Cross out what arrives. Rewrite it weekly. And run Fantasia daily, 15 minutes standing inside the scene rather than watching it. Receive the money. Spend the money. See yourself in the office with your name on the door. Start the scrapbook, pictures of the objects and articles about the methods of people who got them, your own photograph on a page with people you admire. Take the vow of the golden hours— 7 days, 1 task each day under an hour— and run the Sunday inventory once a week. Count what you already have that money cannot buy, because he built that into the system deliberately, and the system was designed to include that. Every Tuesday evening for roughly 25 years, several hundred people climbed the steps of Carnegie Hall to hear a man tell them that the life they wanted was already inside them. He had been an orphan. He had wanted to be an actor and failed at it. He learned astrology to get past a stage door, and it made him the private counselor to Clark Gable and Tyrone Power and Mary Pickford and a young contract player who would end up in the White House. He wrote 31 books in a style so enthusiastic that the modern reader almost cannot take it seriously. And inside those books is one of the most complete manifestation technologies Anybody has ever assembled— written cards, spoken anchors, physical objects you can hold on to, emotional immersion, a weekly schedule, an ethical vow at the center of all of it. Everybody who reads him notices the exclamation points. Almost nobody notices that the first secret of money magnetism out of a study of 10,000 fortunes was a desire to do good for the world, or that the only sin he ever named was the sin of thinking small about yourself. I've covered this material on this channel more than 3 dozen times. I've read his books on the air, and I keep coming back to him for a reason that took me a long time to name. He believed it would work for you completely, without hedging, with total confidence. That belief comes off the page and it goes into the reader, and that transfer is the actual technique underneath every other technique he ever wrote down. I read his work and I believe him. He makes me believe. That's what's so amazing. So get a filing card, write 1 cent on it, put it in your pocket. That's where every one of these stories begins.
