    where they cooperate in producing, creating, improving, uplifting. No one is a real success until he takes God (Good) into partnership, until his own pur¬ pose and ambition are squared with the divine plan. That is, a man’s vocation must at least not run counter to the purpose of the universe, which is based on the unity of all things, which means team work. If you are doing things which in some way benefit the race, contribute to its highest wel¬ fare, then your career is in tune with the In¬ finite plan. You are codperating with the Creator in the team work of the race. You are a success. But if you are doing something which runs counter to God’s world plan, to this great cooperative team work of the race, you are a failure, and you cannot be really happy, because you are working in opposition to your Creator. There is something inside of a man which protests against doing that which tends to in¬ jure another, that which does not square with his God nature, with the best thing in him; that which is not working in response to his highest aspiration.
