The Game of Life for Men

Life is a challenge – a "game" if you will – and that game is a whole lot easier if you know your opposition, the playing field, and the rules.

In this case, the opposition is your own negative mind — seven levels of deeply subconscious fear that limits everything you do in life, and suppresses every part of who you are as a person. And this is not your fear of snakes, fear of suspicious characters, or fear of heights. That is irrational fear, such as the fear of change, fear of criticism, fear of rejection, and so on. Those are the fears you play against in the game of life. Your own fears, and the fears of others. That is your opposition.

The playing field is life itself — just take a look around. There is a lot of fear-based limitation and suppression in the world. It's baked into people's reactions, how they relate with you, and even their suggestions. It's embedded in our rules and regulations, and television is full of it. And it's in your own mind. The playing field is all around you, and in you. It's everywhere.

The main rule of the game is that fear is allowed to operate subconsciously behind the scenes, in the background of everyone's mind, beneath our conscious awareness and without our conscious consent. That means fear is limiting and suppressing everyone, but nobody knows it's happening. That rule might seem unfair, but it's not. Fear gives us a challenge to overcome. We need that challenge, because overcoming it, is what helps us make us more couragious, driven, skilled, and sure of ourselves. That all eventually leads to be a better person, which is what true lasting happiness within. In short, we overcome the opposition of fear, to be a "better player". That is the game of life.

But forgetting out others for a moment, let's look at your own game. To limit and suppress you, fear uses the belief system below. You developed this fear-program in childhood from 0-7 years, which is why it's so irrational. If you'd like to know more, I've written a full article about the childhood fear-program, which you can read about by clicking here. But here is a summary of the the deeply subconscious childhood fear-program, that now runs in the background of your adult mind, limiting everything you do, and suppressing every aspect of who you are:

“The world is a scary place of bad things, lack, and untrustworthy people (Dread); so there is no point venturing out into the world to make any progress (Stagnation); and I’m not good enough to do things well anyway (Mediocrity); so I don't like myself as much anymore, and that makes me unhappy (Unhappiness); so I will seek the approval of others, so they make me happy again by doing what others expect me to do, to keep them happy (Conformity); planning my life around them, to avoid upsetting them (Distraction); and believing what they tell me to believe, without question (Ignorance).”

That's your greatest opposition. Therefore, to beat it, tackle it to the ground, and win the game of life — you simply have to prove that belief wrong, by doing the exact opposite. That would be:

Making the exhilarating decision to do what you’ve always wanted to do in life (Adventure); venture out into the world to do it one step at a time (Progress); constantly self-improving to do it to the very best of your ability (Talent); so you en-joy yourself, and like yourself more, so you need less approval from others (Happiness); so you’re more likely to do things in your own unique way (Passion); with your own unique focus and direction (Inspiration); to prove to yourself in real life, what’s actually true for you (Understanding).

That is the True Purpose of Life, and that's how you win the game of life. Not only will you prove your fears wrong, but it's also the secret to more wealth, better health, more success, more fulfilment, and true lasting happiness for men.

But first you have to know what your true purpose is, which is why we created the FINDING True Purpose workshop. Check it our here.
