Some Kind of Lever

This question is directed at a single and specific individual that I do not currently have the guts to ask it to directly, and as such and because it’s a kind of good general question anyway, I’m putting it here: Do you think that there are such things in our lives and levers or keys that if, once discovered or completely unknown, when pulled or turned will unlock either one or an entire series of problems, effectively allowing various things to “fall into place.” Now, first of all, this doesn’t mean that I’m talking about any kind of “quick fix at all;” hell, doing all the necessary work in order to be able to identify such a key is not exactly easy, let alone actually turning it. Secondly, it’s not like such a turning would simply erase all problems, it may even generate new ones or allow you to notice some that had been hidden; but what it would do would allow certain extant issues to fall away, these specific ones to be no more.

Who knows if such things exist anyway. They’d obviously be different in different cases, lives, places, days, nights, weeks, years, cars, jobs, buildings, cities, countries, travels, studies, books, loves, and so on. I think they might, but that might also be wishful thinking.
