You must use your thought as directed in the previous chapter, you should start being where you are; and you must do ALL that you can do where you are currently.
They way to advance is to be larger than the place you are right now; and no man who leaves work undone is larger than his present place.
Those who more than fill their spaces advance the world.
If no one filled their present place, we could come to the conclusion everything would go backwards.
No society would be able to advance if everyone was smaller than their place; social growth is guided by the law of physical and mental growth.
In the animal world, evolution is caused by excess of life.
When a living organism has more life than can be expressed in the functions of its own level, it grows the organs of a higher level, and a new living organism is created.
If organisms had not more than filled there spaces there would never have been new species.
The law works exactly the same for you and I; your getting rich depends upon your applying the principle to your life.
Each day is rated an efficient day or a day of inefficiency; and efficient days are what bring you what you desire.
If you act inefficiently everyday, you can never get rich; while if everyday is efficient, you will most certainly get rich.
If there is something that you can do today, and you do not do it, you have failed as far as that thing is concerned; and the results may be more disastrous than you imagined.
You can not see the results for even the smallest act; you do not know the workings that have been set moving on your behalf.
Much could depend on you doing some simple act; it could be the very thing that can open the door of opportunity to very great possibilities.
You'll never know all the combinations that Infinite Intelligence has for you in the world; your neglect or failure to do some small thing may cause a long delay in getting what you desire.
Do, every day ALL that can be done that day.
There is a limit of the previous statement that you must take into account.
You are not to overwork, nor to rush blindly into your business in the effort to do the greatest possible number of things in the least amount of time.
You are not to do tomorrow's work today, nor to do a week's work in a day.
It is not the number of things you do, but the Efficiency of each action that counts.
Every inefficient act is a failure, and if you spend your life doing inefficient acts, your whole life will be lived inefficiently.
On the other hand, every efficient act is a success, and if every act of life is an efficient one, your whole life WILL be a success.
You will see that it is a self-evident proposition that if you do not do inefficient acts, and if you do number of sufficient acts, you will become rich.
If, it is possible for you to make each act an efficient one, you see again that the getting of riches is reduced to an exact science, like mathematics.
The matter turns to the question whether you can make each act a success in itself.
And certainly you can do this.
You can make each act a success, because ALL Power is working with you; and ALL Power can not and will not fail.
This power is at your service; and to make each act an efficient one you must put power into it.
All action is either strong or weak; and when every act is strong, you are acting in the way that will make you rich.
Every act can be made strong and efficient by holding your vision while you are doing it, and putting ALL of your FAITH and PURPOSE into the act.
Those who separate mental power form personal action will have difficulty.
They use the power of the mind one place and at one time, and they act in another place at another time.
These acts are not successful in themselves; too many of them are inefficient.
But if you put power into every act, no matter how minor, every act will be a success in itself; and the nature of things is that every success opens the way to other successes, your progress toward what you want, and the progress of what you want toward you, will become increasingly rapid.
Being successful is repeating success.
Since the desire for growth is evident in all things, when a man begins to move toward larger life more things attach themselves to him, and the influence of his desire in multiplied.
Do, every day all that you can do that day, and do each act in an efficient manner.
In saying that you hold your vision while you're doing each act, however trivial or minor, I do not mean to say that it is necessary at all times to see your vision in exact detail.
It should be practiced in your leisure hours to imagine the details of your vision, and to think on them until they are fixed upon memory.
If you desire speedy results, spend practically all of your spare time in this practice.
By continuous thought you will get the picture you desire, even to the smallest details, so firmly fixed upon your mind, and completely transferred to the Intelligent Mind, that in your working hours you need to only to mentally refer to the picture to stimulate your faith and purpose, and cause your best effort to be put forth.
Think about your picture in all your spare time until your consciousness is so full of the picture that you can grasp it instantly.
You will become so excited with this glorious promise that the mere thought of it will call on the strongest energies of your entire being.
