    If the script is on the same game object, then you can use the GetComponent method.

    If the script is on another game object, you'll need to create a public or serialized private member variable in the calling script that you can drag the other script into in the editor.

    Only use the game object Find method if you are doing it in Start or Awake, as it is slow.
