Emmet Fox was an Irish New Thought spiritual leader of the early 20th century. He has a way of boiling down complex issues into easily understandable prose. In this little gem, his opening words say it all.
"An old adage says, 'God has a plan for every man, and He has one for you,' and this is absolutely correct.
Your real problem, therefore, in fact the only problem that you ever have, is to find your true place in life. Find that, and everything else will follow almost automatically. You will be perfectly happy; and upon happiness, health will follow. You will be really prosperous. You will have all the supply that you require to meet your needs, and this means that you will have perfect freedom; for poverty and freedom cannot go together. Until you do find your true place in life, however, you never will be really happy, no matter how much money or distinction you may acquire; and until you are happy, you will be neither healthy nor free."
How to find "your true place in life" the author explains succinctly in the rest of this essay.
