Canadian-born author, motivational speaker, and Law of Attraction expert Bob Proctor passed away on February 4, 2022.

Born on July 5, 1934, in Canada, Proctor rose to fame as the author of his New York Times best-seller, You Were Born Rich. The book helps readers understand the power of positivity, aka the Law of Attraction. This belief explains how energy, or vibrations, stream throughout the Universe. Further, similar vibrations attract themselves to each other. So if someone wants to attract good things, they must have good energy to reap their rewards. On the other hand, negative energy attracts adverse outcomes.

The Early Life of Bob Proctor

Proctor did not grow up in the lap of luxury. Instead, he came from a regular, working-class Canadian family.

While attending a technical program as an older teenager, Proctor suffered a thumb injury while operating a band saw. As a result, he struggled with a low-self image throughout his early adulthood.

At age 26, he began to transform his mindset. At that time, Proctor worked as a firefighter in Toronto, barely scraping by on his salary to make ends meet. In 1961, a co-worker shared with him a copy of the beset-selling Napoleon Hill guidebook, Think and Grow Rich. It was the first book that Proctor read as an adult, and it became the motivation to change his life.

Proctor realized that his future was in his hands and that he must take bold action to have a joyful life. He gained control of his finances by starting his own business–a cleaning contracting business. Despite having no business experience, he applied his drive and energy to the company and it flourished. In fact, the firm earned over $100,00 in the first year of business. Thus, he saw proof of the Law of Attraction in action and became a student of the movement–eventually writing his famous book.
