Is there a 4th Factor?
compares it to several other machines of the same model, produced by the same manufacturer, they seem to bring about the same result. But such is not the case with man. Man’s efforts vary and depend on a mysterious circumstance unknown to man. Wherever man’s efforts are involved, it is not just the equipment, the raw material or the method he uses, but his attempts are directly linked with the 4th Factor.
Modern day man is quite aware that results need not depend on just three factors. If only the three factors could produce results, then every computer engineer could become Bill Gates and start Microsoft or could be Steve Jobs and create Apple. What makes magic happen in some cases bafes man. Sometimes, it is just a simple idea that creates a millionaire.
Man seems to carry with him a 4th invisible factor beyond his control. While man is able to control his own efforts, he is unable to control this 4th Factor. What is this 4th Factor?
Three are factors that man does know.
He needs his boat and he has to row.
But the waters that swirl and
the winds that blow,
Make him know that
there are factors four.
