An organization or its parts or an individual passes through various states of existence. These, if not handled properly, bring about shrinkage and misery and worry and death. If handled properly they bring about stability, expansion, influence and well-being.

These, arranged from highest to lowest, are:

Power

The formulas for these are apparently monitoring formulas for livingness (the state of living).

The first thing to know about them is that each step in a formula is in exact sequence and must be done in that sequence. It is totally fatal to reverse the order of sequence of two or more actions.

Example: In Emergency, economize before you promote. If the sequence is disordered, the final result is a smaller organization or less influential person.

A key datum is that if the formulas are not known or not correctly applied, an organism emerges from each crisis smaller.

A person can exist in different conditions. Ethics is the means by which
he can raise himself to a higher condition and improve his survival.
