Daniel 6 verifies that workplace enemies swing into action when you are due for a promotion courtesy of your good work. But before the promotion comes knocking, you will not know that your success is an issue. Your success will have strategically positioned you for promotion.
So when word goes out that you are due for a promotion because of your blessed work, your enemies will become active. They start to look for ways to bring you down before your superiors.
Daniel was positioned for a promotion courtesy of his success. And his colleagues turned into enemies courtesy of the same. Then they looked for a way to stop the promotion from happening.
