In today’s world, many men who seem to have it all — high intelligence, successful careers, and good looks — find themselves grappling with unhappiness and various addictions. Despite their outward success, they often struggle with inner turmoil, turning to alcohol, fleeting relationships, or other distractions to fill the void. This raises a crucial question: why?

To understand this dilemma, we need to recognize that true happiness and peace stem from a balance of body, mind, and spirit. Many men excel in intellectual pursuits, mastering the art of networking and running successful businesses. Others maintain peak physical fitness through disciplined exercise routines. Yet, the spiritual dimension of their lives is frequently neglected or entirely absent.

The spiritual aspect of a man is the most vital, for we are born of the spirit and it is through the spirit that we truly live and die. An unhappy man is often one who is spiritually disconnected from his higher power — God, the Creator. This disconnection breeds ingratitude, not only towards God but towards life itself. Lacking faith in God, himself, and others, such a man is trapped in a cycle of discontent.

Humility is the gateway to understanding the higher power of God. It is through this humility that we realize the origins of our financial success, well-being, talents, and the gifts of relationships are divine blessings. When we acknowledge and return to God with fullness of heart, He fills us with the wisdom to navigate life rightly.

Gratitude towards God translates into our relationships, not only in the business realm but also in our social circles. God asks us to love and do right by everyone and everything He places in our lives.
