The first god of the world is beauty.
If you are good looking you are more likely to make friends, get a partner, get a job, get a promotion, get elected, make money.....than if you are not.
The second god of the world is money.
Wealth is what we seek when we have achieved success in the first god's arena of relationships.
The third god of the world is fame.
When we have a relationship and wealth the next god of seduction is fame. We want to be extensively admired and applauded.
The fourth god of the world is leisure.
Holidays, sports, entertainment, movies, lunch, dinner, all these recreations follow the former gods.
The fifth god of the world is shopping.
Spending money for the sake of it or as therapy (compensation) is the next pitfall.
The sixth god of the world is pleasure.
Sex, food, art, reading, sports, entertainment.....all theses things are pleasurable (epicureanism).
The seventh god of the world is success.
Achievements in this world are a constant seduction, a prop for our ego.
There are many other gods in the world but these are the most seductive.
