Daily Boost with Charlie Harary

Ep 11. Why You See Adults Playing Games


Listen Later

Why do adults still play games? They may not realize it consciously, but games give us the structure and quick wins that our brains crave. This episode dives into how craving comfort keeps us stuck—and how embracing discomfort and focus can change everything.

  1. Games satisfy our need for structure and progress.

    1. Quick tasks feel productive but pull us from meaningful work.

      1. Deep focus beats scattered effort every time.

        1. Growth happens when you push past surface-level comfort.


          Feeling stuck in busyness? Learn to break free, focus deeply, and create real impact.


          Choose one uncomfortable task today. Do it. Grow.
