GETTING INTO THE RIGHT BUSINESS
72 When you get out of the competitive mind you will understand that you
73 never need to act hastily. No one else is going to beat you to the thing you
74 want to do; there is enough for all. If one space is taken, another and a better
75 one will be opened for you a little farther on; there is plenty of time. When
76 you are in doubt, wait. Fall back on the contemplation of your vision, and
77 increase your faith and purpose; and by all means, in times of doubt and
78 indecision, cultivate gratitude.
79 A day or two spent in contemplating the vision of what you want, and in
80 earnest thanksgiving that you are getting it, will bring your mind into such
81 close relationship with the Supreme that you will make no mistake when
82 you do act.
83 There is a mind which knows all there is to know; and you can come into
84 close unity with this mind by faith and the purpose to advance in life, if you
85 have deep gratitude.
86 Mistakes come from acting hastily, or from acting in fear or doubt, or in
87 forgetfulness of the Right Motive, which is more life to all, and less to none.
88 As you go on in the Certain Way, opportunities will come to you in
89 increasing number; and you will need to be very steady in your faith and
90 purpose, and to keep in close touch with the All Mind by reverent gratitude.
91 Do all that you can do in a perfect manner every day, but do it without haste,
92 worry, or fear. Go as fast as you can, but never hurry.
93 Remember that in the moment you begin to hurry you cease to be a creator
94 and become a competitor; you drop back upon the old plane again.
95 Whenever you find yourself hurrying, call a halt; fix your attention on the
96 mental image of the thing you want, and begin to give thanks that you are
97 getting it. The exercise of GRATITUDE will never fail to strengthen your
98 faith and renew your purpose.
