On this episode of the World Game-Changers podcast, Paul is joined by returning guest and fellow World Game-Changers director, Kristin Johnson. The pair talk about the follow up book that they co-authored a few years ago, called Mastering The Game Of Life and some of the topics discussed in the last book.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Do we ever master the game of life? Our process throughout life – in my personal perspective- is to master the game of life, whatever that looks like for each of us. It’s a broad question, but it’s unique to every human.
A lot of people say they want to die having left a mark on the world, or leaving it a better place, or leaving their children better off than they were, or leaving a legacy for future generations, or having found love, or that they mattered. The big prize is somewhere in there, that you’re loved and love, you’ve made your mark either through fame and fortune or just in your local community where everybody knows you or that somehow you’ve contributed, that the people around you are better off because you were there, a bit like the movie It’s A Wonderful Life.
Love requires a lot of oneself, I think, love requires sacrifice. If you love anything you’re going to give it your all in order for it to succeed. That doesn’t necessarily mean that if a parent loves a child they’re going to give in to everything the child wants because that’s really not love. Sometimes loving people means helping them be their best selves and making their own choices, even if it’s not something we entirely agree with, we can still support them.
BEST MOMENTS
‘We say the word ‘love’ in a flippant way sometimes and what it means to love gets lost in the conversation.’‘So many people have a hard time receiving, especially women – we’re definitely givers – though some men are givers too. There’s nothing wrong with that, there’s a lot of power in that, but it’s about loving yourself first and loving life.’‘Addiction isn’t just about chemicals like alcohol, tobacco and drugs, it can be shopping, work and certainly the internet.’‘There’s a dark and a light side to everything, a yin and a yang.’
