Misfit Mind: Finite & Infinite Games - E.2


Listen Later

In this episode of the Misfit Podcast, Drew takes a deeper dive into this week’s Misfit Mind post through the lens of Finite and Infinite Games by James Carse.

Most people don’t fail from lack of effort.
They fail because they need the work to end.
Using examples from training, sport, business, and creative work, this episode explores the difference between playing to win and playing to continue—and why applying finite expectations to infinite pursuits leads to burnout, frustration, and unnecessary quitting.

Rules change.
Bodies change.
Life changes.

If you’re still playing the game, adaptability isn’t optional—it’s the whole point.

This is a short-form, reflective episode meant to challenge how you frame progress, setbacks, and long-term growth—and to remind you that the goal isn’t finishing. It’s staying in it long enough to matter.

See you there, Misfits.
