A career is just a series of games. The key to winning is taking a step back early on and figuring out which game is worth playing and which game isn't. Too many people play the wrong games with stiff competition and shitty prizes and wonder why its hard to get ahead. How do you assess what games are worth playing? Is your goal to make money and so you can quit trading your time for money as soon as possible? Then ask yourself a series of questions: Is this game fun to play? If so, you’ll get a lot of people playing the game for fun and not for money. And it likely adds value to you and doesn’t add much value to others. People play it for selfish reasons. How good do you need to be to win? Find out more in this episode!
