HOW SHE MADE $30,000 HER FIRST YEAR IN BUSINESS
Most of us have heard a great deal about giving but not nearly enough about receiving. At the Christmas Season, the emphasis is usually on giving, giving, giving. The result is that many people have a hang-up about receiving.
Giving is only one-half of the law of increase. Receiving is the other half.
We can give and give, but we may unbalance the law unless we also expect to receive.
Many people unbalance the law by not expecting to receive and so they do not.
As related earlier in Open Your Mind to Prosperity, a very beautiful and fashionably-dressed lady once said to me, "When I first took up the study of prosperous thinking, I prospered so much so quickly that it startled me. I had just gotten a divorce and had only a few months' living expenses on hand. I decided to take a chance and use that money to go into business on a shoestring.
"I expected to make between $4,000 and $6,000 the first year from my new business.
Instead I made between $4,000 and $6,000 during the first few months.
I made $30,000 that first year in business, and I will probably make at least $50,000 this year."
My reason for repeating this lady's story here is because of her last statement.
She said, "My greatest problem has been in trying not to feel guilty about receiving so much."
It is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom, and it should be your good pleasure to receive it.
