Show Notes

Robin Moriarty's book 'What Game Are You Playing?' is a great reminder that we should all be doing what we want to do rather than what others want us to do. Although many self-help books talk about finding happiness and pursuing a passion, Robin uses a great analogy of 'games' to make it simple and understandable for anyone reading it.

In a society that puts so much emphasis on making money, it's easy to think that's the only option available when in reality there are so many different games to play. 

Robin really hammers home the importance of embracing our individual strengths and using them to determine what game we want to play.

She takes us through a step by step process in order to become aware of our definition of success and then how to take action.

  1. Your game’s objective, which refers to what you’re pursuing. 
  2. How you play your game, and what kinds of moves you make 
  3. What obstacles must be overcome, including both internal and external challenges;  
  4. How to keep score so you know that you’re winning.
