don't ask me where these are from (part of some obscure theological theory somewhere), but here they are, the 4 pillars of existence, order matters:
1. love (for something)
2. absolute ethicality
3. growth
4. logic
Now, what can you do with these? Bring them up in casual conversation...and...what?

guru: these are the axioms of existence, my pupil.
pupil: um, ok, thanks! (ponders) aww, it looks like at the centre of the universe there's love!
guru: ...for something. don't get carried away romanticising. on average, there is love for life management. and, in opposition, at an overwhelming, massive proportion, there is love for experience, not for love as an experience. but yes, you seem to fall into the latter. cute.

moral principals that need understanding and challenging, not just blindly obeying.
what makes you acceptable in the eyes of the gods, if deemed actually absolutely moral (true ethicality).
good reasons to do things.
how you get dharma points, to enter The (Real) Good Place.

something nice to do for humanity, especially if you have a less common blood type, or a rare one.
go figure out your full blood type (what's your rh, do you know?), and donate. make it a cool bonding activity that you do with your friends, family, significant other(s), teammates or co-workers, for the good of others...then go brag about it online to make it even more popular, but also to feel better about your selflessness, get those virtual applause and boost your level in the merciless world of online presence.
this can also be a motivator to keep yourself healthier (read it how you see fit, focus on what matters). would you want someone to get bad blood? obviously not! do regular blood check-ups.
also, check before you donate if you can. sometimes you might not be the best person to do so, for example, if you have low blood pressure, just got a tattoo or other skin procedures (wait 6 months), smoke pot sometimes (get clean first, you have bigger issues, you are making your brain mush), take diet pills or other medication that you should not, etc.

to overbusiness, the process of overbusinessing, a state in which you can find yourself (ideally on purpose)
to just succeed in business with pure nonchalance, to shake hands and close deals en-mass and be a serial hi-fiver, to have a certain flair for the money, to make it happen fast in a world where capitalism is law and be the alpha gamer of the game, to build an empire where few others, as a percentage, have dared to, to come out of every human interaction with a new action-investment plan, to be Starfleet, not Kirk, on your enterprise.
