You can have millions of dollars and not, by any stretch of the imagination, be considered successful by those who know you. The reason is simple: You can make millions of dollars without having character. Character is one of the most important ingredients to success. Without it, the best attitude, the strongest skills, the most concrete philosophy, and the most worthwhile objectives mean nothing.

Drug dealers, smut peddlers, and con artists may accumulate considerable financial wealth and acquire the things that money can buy, but they are never truly successful because without character, they can acquire few, if any, of the things that money can't buy. Unfortunately, the same thing can be said about some businesspeople, politicians, athletes, attorneys, physicians, movie and TV stars, and so on.

People with integrity do the right thing. When you have integrity, you have nothing to fear because you have nothing to hide. In doing the right thing for the right reason, your personal, family, and business lives you experience no guilt and no fear. With fear and guilt removed from your back, it's much easier to travel farther, faster, and higher.
