Page 55 - The Science of Getting Rich

1215 If you feel that you are not in the right vocation, do not act too hastily in trying to get into another one. The

1216 best way, generally, to change business or environment is by growth.

1217 Do not be afraid to make a sudden and radical change if the opportunity is presented, and you feel after

1218 careful consideration that it is the right opportunity; but never take sudden or radical action when you are in

1219 doubt as to the wisdom of doing so.

1220 There is never any hurry on the creative plane; and there is no lack of opportunity.

1221 When you get out of the competitive mind you will understand that you never need to act hastily. No one

1222 else is going to beat you to the thing you want to do; there is enough for all. If one place is taken, another and

1223 a better one will be opened for you a little farther on; there is plenty of time. When you are in doubt, wait.

1224 Fall back on the contemplation of your vision, and increase your faith and purpose; and by all means, in

1225 times of doubt and indecision, cultivate gratitude.

1226 A day or two spent in contemplating the vision of what you want, and in earnest thanksgiving that you are

1227 getting it, will bring your mind into such close relationship with the Supreme that you will make no mistake

1228 when you do act.

1229 There is a mind which knows all there is to know; and you can come into close unity with this mind by faith

1230 and the purpose to advance in life, if you have deep gratitude.

1231 Mistakes come from acting hastily, or from acting in fear or doubt, or in forgetfulness of the Right Motive,

1232 which is more life to all, and less to none.

1233 As you go on in the Certain Way, opportunities will come to you in increasing number; and you will need to

1234 be very steady in your faith and purpose, and to keep in close touch with the All Mind by reverent gratitude.

1235 Do all that you can do in a perfect manner every day, but do it without haste, worry, or fear. Go as fast as

1236 you can, but never hurry.

1237 Remember that in the moment you begin to hurry you cease to be a creator and become a competitor; you

1238 drop back upon the old plane again.
