CHAPTER 13 - Getting into the
Right Business
NO man is kept poor because
opportunity has been taken away from him; because other people have
monopolized the wealth, and have put a barrier around it. You may be
shut off from engaging in some businesses, but there are numerous other
channels open to you.
Probably it would be hard for you to get control of any of the High
street Banks or other large conglomerates and monopolies. However there
are countless other opportunities available in this World including the
world wide web of the Internet which is still in its infancy, and
offers plenty of scope for enterprise; This year 2010 for example are
over 1.6 billion people online worldwide, representing nearly 24% of
the world's population and with social media use such as facebook, twitter, youtube etc an estimate 39% of Internet users will use social networks
within a few weeks of going on-line.

On-line sales have reached record
statistics outstripping some of the high street stores. eBay for example has, in effect,
become
the worlds largest shopping centre. With countless small businesses
using
the traffic that the site generates to sell their goods.While local
businesses are using it to gain customers from across the World.
Business opportunities within the Internet are growing exponentially.
Therefore the Internet
will become a great industry for opportunity for years to come.
It’s a requisite to become rich that
you befall
your own independence byway of owning or controlling your business,
whether
working for others or owning your own. Observing all the very rich
entrepreneurs
past and present it is very clear that as individuals; only a certain
amount of abundance in wealth can be sort as an individual. However
having
a multitude of workers or income streams will assure certain riches.
Richard
Branson for example has over 380-business interest Worldwide and enjoys
the benefit of being a multi billionaire. Bill Gates reported as being
the riches person on the planet worth over 40.6 Billion can accredit
his
fortune due to efforts of other individuals working on his behalf.
All conglomerates for example use a multi level business system;
everyone earns off the back of others efforts while the bosses reap the
highest rewards.
"Like almost everyone
who
uses e-mail, I receive a ton of spam every day. Much of it offers to
help
me get out of debt or get rich quick. It would be funny if it weren't
so
exciting". Bill Gates
Autonomously from the Internet there is an abundance of other
opportunity for any entrepreneur who is prepared to swim with the tide,
instead of trying to go against it. So people, either as individuals or
as a group, are not deprived of opportunity. The employed workers are
not being "kept down"
by their employers; they are not being "trapped" by the trusts and
combinations of capital. As a group, they are where they are because
they do not think or act in a Certain
Way.
The working class may become the master class whenever they will begin
to think and act in this Certain
Way; the law of
wealth is the same for them as it is for all others. This they must
learn; or
they will remain where they are as long as they continue to do as they
do.
The individual worker, however, is not held down by the lack of
knowledge
or the mental slothfulness of his class; he can follow the tide of
opportunity to riches, and the tools in this eBook will tell him how.
No one is kept in poverty by shortness in the supply of riches;
there is more than enough for all. Everything you see on earth is made
from one original core substance, out of which all things continue. New
Forms are constantly being made, and older ones are dissolving. There
is no boundary to the supply of unstructured matter, thoughts of ideas
or Original substance.
No man, as a result, is poor because nature is poor, or because
there is not enough to go around. Nature is an endless storehouse of
riches; the supply will never run short. Original gist is alive with
creative
energy, and is constantly producing more ideas and matter. When the
supply
of building material is exhausted, more will be produced; when the soil
is worn out so that foodstuffs and materials for clothing will no
longer
grow upon it, it will be renewed or more soil will be made. When all
the
gold and silver has been dug from the ground, if man is still in such a
stage of social development that he needs gold and silver, more will
produced from the nebulous. The amorphous material responds to the need
of man; it will not let him survive without. This is true of man
cooperatively; the human race as a whole is always abundantly rich, and
if individuals are poor,
it is because they do not act or think in a Certain
Way.
The universe is a great Living Presence, always moving innately
toward more life and fuller functioning. Nature is created for the
advancement of life; its impelling motivation is the increase of life.
For this cause, everything, which can possibly minister to life, is
abundantly provided; we are not kept poor by lack in the supply of
riches;
SUCCESS, in any
particular business, depends for one thing upon your possessing in a
well-developed state the faculties required in that business.
Without good musical faculty no one can succeed as a teacher of
music; without well-developed mechanical faculties no one can achieve
great success in any of the mechanical trades; without tact and the
commercial faculties no one can succeed in mercantile pursuits. But to
possess in a well-developed state the faculties required in your
particular vocation does not insure becoming rich.
There are musicians who have remarkable talent, and who yet remain
poor; there are fitters, plumbers, carpenters, and so on who have
excellent mechanical ability, but who do not get rich; and there are
merchants with good faculties for dealing with men who nevertheless
fail. The different faculties are tools; it is essential to have good
tools, but it is also essential that the tools should be used in the
Right Way. One man can take a sharp saw, a square, a good plane, and so
on, and build a handsome article of furniture; another man can take the
same tools and set to work to duplicate the article, but his production
will be a botch. He does not know how
to use good tools in a successful way.
The various faculties of your mind are the tools with which you
must do the work, which is to make you rich; it will be easier for you
to succeed if you get into a business for which you are well equipped
with mental tools. Generally speaking, you will do best in that
business
which will use your strongest faculties; the one for which you are
naturally
"best fitted." But there are limitations to this statement, also. No
man
should regard his vocation as being irrevocably fixed by the tendencies
with which he was born.
You can get rich in ANY business, for if you have not the right
talent for you can develop that talent; it merely means that you will
have to make your tools as you go along, instead of confining yourself
to the use of those with which you were born. It will be EASIER for you
to succeed in a vocation for which you already have the talents in a
well-developed state; but you CAN succeed in any vocation, for you can
develop any rudimentary talent, and there is no talent of which you
have not at least the rudiment.
You will get rich most easily in point of effort, if you do that for
which you are best fitted; Psychologis using NLP techniques have uncovered this trait; but you
will get rich most satisfactorily if you do that which you WANT to do.
Doing what you want to do is life; and there is no real satisfaction in
living if we are compelled to be forever doing something, which we do
not like to do, and can never, does what we want to do. And it is
certain that you can do what you want to do; the desire to do it is
proof that
you have within you the power that can do it. Desire is a manifestation
of power. The desire to play music is the power, which can play music
seeking expression and development; the desire to invent mechanical
devices
is the mechanical talent seeking expression and development.
Where there is no power, either developed or undeveloped,
to do a thing, there is never any desire to do that thing; and where
there is strong desire to do a thing, it is certain proof that the
power to do it is strong, and only requires to be developed and applied
in the Right Way. All things else being equal, it is best to select the
business for which you have the best developed talent; but if
you have a strong desire to engage in any particular line of work, you
should select that work as the ultimate end at which you aim.
You
can do what you want to do, and it is your right and
privilege to follow the business or a vocation, which will be most
congenial and pleasant. You are not obliged to do what you do not like
to do, and should not do it except as a means to bring you to the doing
of the thing you want to do. If there are past mistakes whose
consequences have placed you in an
undesirable business or environment, you may be obliged for some time
to
do what you do not like to do; but you can make the doing of it
pleasant by knowing that it is making it possible for you to come to
the doing
of what you want to do. If you feel that you are not in the right
vocation, do not act too hastily in trying to get into another one. The
best way,
generally, to change business or environment is by growth.
Do not be afraid to make a sudden and radical change if the opportunity
is presented, and you feel after careful consideration that it is the
right opportunity; but never take sudden or radical action when you are
in doubt as to the wisdom of doing so. There is never any hurry on the
creative plane; and there is no lack of opportunity. When you get out
of
the competitive mind you will understand that you never need to act
hastily.
No one else is going to beat you to the thing you want to do; there is
enough
for all. If one space is taken, another and a better one will be opened
for you a little farther on; there is plenty of time. When you are in
doubt,
wait. Fall back on the contemplation
of your vision, and increase your conviction and purpose; and by all
means, in times of doubt and indecision, cultivate gratitude to the
universal Consciousness .
A day or two spent in contemplating the vision of what you want, and in
belief that you are getting it, will bring your mind into such close
relationship with the Universal Consciousness that you will make no
mistake when you do act. Your Subconscious mind that knows all there is
to know; and you can come into close unity with this mind by faith and
the purpose to advance in life, if you have deep gratitude. Mistakes
come from acting hastily, or from acting in fear or doubt, or in
forgetfulness of the Right Motive, which is more life to all, and less
to none. As you go on in the
positive Certain Way, opportunities will come to you in increasing
number;
and you will need to be very steady in your faith and purpose, and to
keep
in close touch with the SUBCONSCIOUS Mind by reverent gratitude. Do all
that you can do in a perfect manner every day, but do it without haste,
worry, or fear. Go as fast as you can, but never hurry.
Remember that in the moment you begin to hurry you cease to be a
creator and become a competitor; you drop back upon the old plane again.
Whenever you find yourself hurrying, call a halt; fix your attention on
the mental image of the thing you want, and begin to give thanks that
you are getting it. The exercise of GRATITUDE will never fail to
strengthen your faith and renew your purpose.
WHETHER you change your vocation or not, your actions for the present
must be those pertaining to the business in which you are now engaged.
You can get into the business you want by making constructive use of
the business you are already established in; by doing your daily work
in a positive way. And in so far as your business consists in dealing
with other men, whether personally or by mail, the key thought of all
your efforts must be to convey to their minds the impression of
increase. Increase is what all men and all women are seeking; it is the
urge of the subconscious within them, seeking fuller expression.
The desire for increase is inherent in all nature; it is the
fundamental impulse of the universe. All human activities are based on
the desire for increase; people are seeking more food, more clothes,
better shelter, more luxury, more beauty, more knowledge, more
pleasure— increase in something, more life.
Every living thing is under this necessity for continuous advancement;
where increase of life ceases, dissolution and death sets in at once.
Man instinctively knows this, and hence he is forever seeking more.
The normal desire for increased wealth is not an evil or a
reprehensible thing; it is simply the desire for more abundant life; it
is aspiration. And because it is the deepest instinct of their natures,
all men and women are attracted to people who can give them more of the
means of life.
Advancement
By Conveying the impression of advancement with everything you do, so
that all people shall receive the impression that you are Advancing in
life, and even to the people whom you meet in a social way,
without any thought of business, and to whom you do not try to sell
anything, give the thought of increase. You can convey this impression
by holding the
unshakable faith that you, yourself, are in the Way of Increase; and by
letting this faith inspire, fill, and permeate every action. Do
everything
that you do in the firm conviction that you are an advancing
personality,
and that you are giving advancement to everybody.
Feel that you are getting rich, and that in so doing you are making
others rich, and conferring benefits on all. Do not boast or brag of
your success, or talk about it unnecessarily; true faith is never
boastful. Wherever you find a boastful person, you find one who is
secretly doubtful and afraid. Simply feel the belief, and let it work
out in every transaction; let every act express the quiet assurance
that you are becoming rich;
that you are already rich.
Words will not be necessary to communicate this feeling to others; they
will feel the sense of increase when in your presence, and will be
attracted to you again. You must so impress others that they will feel
that in associating with you they will get increase for themselves. See
that you give them a use value greater than the cash value you are
taking from them.
Take an honest pride in doing this, and let everybody know it; and you
will have no lack of customers. People will go where they are given
increase; and the Subconscious which desires increase in all, and which
knows all, will move toward you men and women who have never heard of
you. Your business will increase rapidly, and you will be surprised at
the unexpected benefits that will come to you. You will be able from
day to day to make larger combinations, secure greater advantages, and
to go on into a more congenial vocation if you desire to do so. But
doing thing all this, you must never lose sight of your vision of what
you want, or your faith and purpose to get what you want.
