Wattles shares his views about the importance of following your own truth and he emphasizes that our thoughts play a crucial role in determining our level of greatness. By thinking for ourselves and by visualizing what we wish to see in reality we become the master of our thoughts, which in turn become our reality. Wattles asserts that greatness is not only for a select, privileged few, but that every person has within themselves the power and faculties to become great in their own right. Indeed, Wattles believes that "Greatness is equally inherent in all, and may be manifested by all."
