The Game of Life

Dear Kid,

Life is a game; it truly is - and like it or not you're playing. And that's okay because it's the best way to look at it.

Have you ever wondered why "The Game of Life" doesn't come with a Game Plan?

I mean it's by far the trickiest, most confusing, complex, mysterious and potentially dangerous game you'll ever play – nothing else comes close.

Life's unique matrix and combinations of pit-falls, trap-doors and slippery slopes are equalled only by its mounting temptations, massive misguidance and a seemingly bottomless pit of never-ending and progressing challenges.

Life, throughout the ages has caused many men to live lives of quiet despartion. It's driven many men mad. There have been many losers in the Game of Life.

To be sure, The Game of Life is not easy.

Given the irrefutable fact that life is the biggest game you'll ever play in your...well, "life" why is there no plan? Where are the written directions? Where'ss the necessary Owners Manual?

You get a written list of objectives, instructions, guidelines, rules, strategies, techniques, trouble shooting ideas for every other game, activity, class, or sport that you ever play.

Why not "life"?

Every toy, gadget and electronic device you own came with a list of directions, didn't it?...full of information on how to use or play with it successfully, how to best care for it, prolong and optimize it's "life" and performance.

Does something seem amiss?

I ask you again: Where is Life's Game Plan?! Where is the set of rules, guidelines and goals?!

Without debate, clear to all and sad to say, we prepare you better for a little league baseball game or a new activity in gym class than we do for "The Game of Life".

Does that make sense to you kid? It doesn't to me.

Do yourself a favor Kid - stick around this blog, and when my book Inspiration 101 comes out, get two.

For it's the ticket to all you seek - it's the missing Game Plan for Life - it's the the Ultimate Game Plan for Life!

If you want to know the way to go Kid, become wise and...

Go with the Guru.

Peace out,

~The Guru
