Wait, success isn\u2019t about how much toilet paper I can buy and stash away?\u00a0 Deep within, we know that\u2019s not what success is all about.<\/p>\n

In Lesson 23, Haanel defines success in this way.\u00a0 \u201cThe first law of success then is service, and this in turn is built on integrity and justice. The man who at least is not fair in his intention is simply ignorant; he has missed the fundamental law of all exchange; he is impossible; he will lose surely and certainly; he may not know it; he may think he is winning, but he is doomed to certain defeat. He cannot cheat the Infinite. \u201c<\/p>\n

Sounds like an explanation of Karma, perhaps? \u00a0\u201cThe law of compensation will demand of him an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. \u201c\"\"<\/p>\n
