I promise you are going to be shocked.
I am revealing one of the greatest mysteries of nature, hidden in the centuries and lost in the mayhem of the technological age.
Write it down now.
Write down your word before you go further so that you can see why it has been so hard for you to achieve and sustain those four icons of life.
DONE? WRITTEN? OK-- Did you think it is ill health? If we are not healthy then we struggle for happiness and love and to be inspired.
Poor health can distract us, rob our concentration, divert our attention, cause us worry, and prevent our full and open hearted participation in every day life.
Poor health can also sabotage our sex life, relationship, work and happiness.
So many unhappy people are unhealthy.
Did their poor health cause their unhappiness or the other way round, unhappiness caused their poor health? But if you think poor health is the real enemy of the four icons of a great life, you are wrong.
Did you think the enemy of the four icons is unhappiness? If we are unhappy, we are often driven to unhealthy behavior and that causes us to be out of love and out if inspiration.
The Dali Lama, head of the Buddhist religion around the world would imply happiness is at the root of humanity.
Unhappy people are infectious, they bring down workplace moral, they sabotage their relationships, their health suffers.
Unhappy people attract disasters to themselves.
More accidents, mistakes, errors, stumbles, disasters, catastrophes and calamities happen to unhappy people than happy ones.
So maybe happiness is at the root core of the four great icons and unhappiness is, the greatest enemy of them.
But if you think unhappiness is the major enemy of those four icons, you are wrong.
Did you think being unable or out of love is the enemy of the four secrets of great living.
Most men would not think this, but many women would.
We argue very strongly that, without love, there cannot be health, or happiness, and certainly inspiration has passion and love at it's core.
Surely, to be in love is a fundamental necessity and to be our of love (say angry or resentful) is the cause of poor health, unhappiness and un inspired.
Is this it? The answer is - no.
This is not the enemy of the four icons of life.
Finally, did you think the enemy of the four great aspirations of all life was the lack of inspiration.
Lack of inspiration leads to hopelessness, and all suicide, depression, emotional breakdowns and much mischief in life comes from people who are uninspired and therefore lack purpose and motivation.
Youth and drugs, and crime and sickness all translate back to lack of purpose, lack of vision, lack of inspiration.
So maybe at the heart of life, is a sense of belonging, a reason to live, a mission or purpose.
Maybe there can be no health, happiness or love if we feel like we are bored, disinterested, too much time.
We know low self worth comes from not doing something worthy of self worth.
So, maybe this is the king, inspiration? But alas, once more, I am sad to say, if you thought this was the answer, you are wrong again.
So what is the king, the enemy, the devil.
What one thing sabotages all the others.
What one simple ingredient in the mix of life, sabotages the four great mysteries of human condition? The answer follows in the next article
