Have You Ever Thought About Life Like This Before? (2036)

37 minutes

What if life isn’t a race to the finish, but a game you’re meant to keep playing? In today’s powerful episode, Kevin and Alan unpack the idea of infinite vs. finite games—and why growth, success, and fulfillment don’t have a finish line. From self-belief to goal-setting to avoiding the trap of short-term wins, they explore how your mindset shapes everything. You’ll hear real stories, memorable metaphors, and practical ways to shift from “arriving” to striving with purpose.
