Strategies for Achieving Success in Life's Pursuit
Life, much like a game of chess, is a dynamic and ever-changing journey where we navigate a complex web of rules and strategies. This is the essence of the "Game of Life" metaphor, a thought-provoking perspective that encourages us to adapt our approaches and decisions in response to evolving circumstances and interactions.
According to this metaphor, the rules of life, the norms, expectations, and challenges we face, are not static but change over time or with context. This means that to lead a more loving and meaningful existence, we must be flexible and thoughtful in navigating our relationships and choices.
The traditional approach to life, as portrayed in the old version of the game of life, is characterised by control, manipulation, and fear-based actions. However, a new approach is emerging, one that prioritises love, understanding, and compassion. This new strategy can be adopted right now, even with many of the same rules still in place.
The two main "camps" in the re-negotiation of Earth's current game of life are those who want to win and triumph over others, and those who seek growth in love, wisdom, and personal experience. It's important to note that both groups are currently negotiating and co-creating new rules for life based on their chosen strategies.
For those who still view life as a zero-sum competition, the game of chess can be a useful analogy. Chess, like life, has rules governing piece movement and the overall game. However, the goal in playing chess (and life) is no longer to win, but to play out of curiosity, excitement, and to see what new opportunities present themselves.
When we play chess with the goal of staying free, we learn to see all options, look at the bigger picture, and engage with all in an attempt to find what resonates with our goals and desires. This approach trains us to be adaptable, to think strategically, and to engage with others in a more compassionate and understanding manner.
Even when we feel boxed in, playing chess with the goal of staying free provides learning opportunities and grows our vision and scope for the bigger picture. This aligns with the metaphor of life as a game of loving discovery and experience, where each individual must choose which game they want to play: a game of competition or a game of loving discovery and experience.
Amina Deb Lewis, a seeker and student in esoteric, spiritual, and scientific studies for over 40 years, shares perspectives and tools on living one's Individual Unique Truth. She emphasises the importance of adopting a loving and compassionate approach to life, and encourages us to embrace the new game of loving experience that is unfolding as the new rules are established.
Until bifurcation is complete, Candy Land can be seen as a metaphor for the game of loving experience, where everyone works together to create a beautiful and harmonious world. The faster individuals change their focus on how they play and strategize differently, the faster the new game of loving experience will come into being.
In conclusion, the "Game of Life" metaphor serves as a framework for understanding life’s fluid challenges and the importance of adopting evolving strategies that emphasise love and connection in daily interactions. By choosing to prioritise love, understanding, and compassion in our daily lives, we can navigate life's complexities with greater ease and create a more loving and meaningful existence for ourselves and for those around us.
- Embracing Amina Deb Lewis's perspective, one can see education-and-self-development as a crucial part of one's journey in the new game of life, focusing on personal-growth that cultivates a loving and compassionate approach towards life.
- Similar to Amina Deb Lewis's vision of Candy Land as a metaphor for the game of loving experience, adopting an ego that prioritizes love, understanding, and compassion in our lifestyle can help us co-create a beautiful and harmonious world, aligning with the unfolding of the new rules for life.
