If you listen to the mystics (and this is a good idea), there are many "laws" at work in the universe. Or, if that concept -- the universe -- is too grand or melodramatic for some, just say "the regular, ordinary world." Yes, The Law of Attraction is apparently one of them. But it's certainly not the only law that is proposed to be "in effect" in our world. There's the law of causation, the law of change, and one that is probably influencing a lot of people who have achieved some level of success: the law of balance.
The world, as an organic whole, has a tremendous interior intelligence that drives towards balance. I'm not talking specifically about economic balance or so-called democratic/political balance. Forget all that -- just look at nature itself. It "gets" balance -- and it demonstrates it.
For some people, despite experiencing so-called success in their life (financial or otherwise), they lose balance. They lose touch with themselves, and they further lose touch with the very ideas that generated their success in the first place. In simpler terms: they violate the law of balance.
And what happens when you violate the law of balance? Well, obviously, you get balanced.
Lots and lots of successful people get balanced, sooner or later.
