• Ego(E)
• Sex(S)
• Power(P)
• Money(M).....ie. (ESPM) factors

Roots of problems of life and living primarily are these ESPM-Factors directly and indirectly.

If we possess uncontrolled desires or greed on any one of the four factors, we are bound to get ruined slowly. 

• Excess of anyone of the ESPM factors will prove to self-destructive for any one. We should therefore learn the art of controlling EMOTIONS.
• ESPM is now ESPMA where A stands for Anger
• If we are obsessive about anything , we are going to become mad in course of time
• We should try hard to control ourselves and live a mainstream life
• If we are constantly driven by ESPMA factors, we shall invite our own destruction slowly but steadily
• We should be happy with ourselves first
• An unhappy person spreads unhappiness and negativity to his surroundings
• Happiness spreads like the process of Induction. Happiness is induced to others
• Mix with happy and interesting people , so that you will feel less burdened
• Don't take life so seriously so that your life is driven by non-nonsensical ESPMA factors any more
• Happiness lies within
• Earn sufficient money and sustain your family  life
• Love your people and expect nothing from them
