You forgot nothing - but for each person the most important law to remember is the one of the 5 we'd forgotten or never learned. Me, for instance - I had forgotten #2 and never learned #5 and so they are pivotal to ME. So to be a true Go-Giver and achieve stratospheric success, you have to first recognize what you <i>aren't</i> doing. Then you have to recognize where you can be even better in applying all of the laws. But some people will say the pivotal law is the one they think they are BEST at, and then wonder why the universe isn't ponying up. Oh dear – was I too impassioned to be clear?

I’m a wee bit confused about your comment. You say, “John, I think the law that is pivotal IS the law you’d forgotten.” The law I’d forgotten? Which law do you mean? And when did I forget it? (I forget.) Hi, Dixie! I’m a wee bit confused about your comment. You say, “John, I think the law that is pivotal IS the law you’d forgotten.”

The law I’d forgotten? Which law do you mean? And when did I forget it? (I forget.)

When we read any system for success it is human to say "But I'm already doing a lot of that and I'm not getting stratospheric success." So the question isn't how much ARE you doing - it is what part are you NOT doing. Getting MOST of the pieces of the jigsaw in the right place doesn't make a pretty picture. Recognizing the missing pieces and discovering where they go is what makes success complete. John, I think the law that is pivotal IS the law you’d forgotten.

More than that, I’d say they are vital to the story as well. Some laws may be “easier” to do than the others and you may get the success you want in life without having to do all five laws but doing all five laws, and doing them from your heart, you are guaranteed success. Now, if I had to choose one law over the other, one which would be "pivotal" to the story, however, I would choose the law of value. It is my feeling that if you give more value for the work that you do, and you do it with an open heart, the other laws naturally fall into place . . . On the other hand, I feel a person who is not willing to give more value, or is unable to do so from an open heart but is always looking for "what's in it for me. . . ." the other steps/laws will be that much harder to grasp and their success will be an unrealized dream . . . Best wishes to you and Mr. Burg and continued success with The Go-Giver. I remain, Ruthann Schumann Dear Mr. Mann,
