5 Strategies To Play The Game Of Life And Win
The world is unfair but also beautiful. Life can be harsh but also bless us with memorable moments.
We believe that life is happening to us but what if it is actually happening for us?
That changes everything because that means we have a more active role in our own destinies.
Yes there are times when we have to be patient and wait out the storms. But we also need to give it direction otherwise we are just drifting.
In effect, it depends on how we see life itself: a fun game to be played or a brutal affair with sporadic happy moments to be experienced.
1. Our perception of life
So my first question for you, what is life?
Your definition is everything : it represents, in a nutshell, your mindset, your attitude, your lifestyle, your reaction to people around you.
I used to think that life is a struggle, that I needed to fight hard for everything. It was tiring.
Now I strive for what I want but I also play smart, sometimes I just need to retreat. It is not always about playing offense.
