How to Get What You Want is a book by Orison Swett Marden, first published in 1917. Rooted in the turn-of-the-century success literature that fed later self-help movements, it offers practical, no-nonsense guidance on thinking clearly, setting goals, and converting intention into steady action. Marden writes from a firmly traditional vantage—valuing honest effort, character-building, and moral steadiness — while urging readers to adopt positive thinking, resilience, and deliberate habits that attract opportunity and prosperity. The tone throughout remains pragmatic rather than mystical: chapters focus on discipline, willpower, overcoming discouragement, and practical methods for finding and holding purpose. Useful for readers researching classic personal development, goal setting, or the historical New Thought influences on modern motivation literature, this book sits comfortably between inspirational aphorism and actionable advice — an early blueprint for contemporary success and motivation writing.
