[THE GAMES WE PLAY]

Question:

I absolutely love your message.

The question I have has to do with calling it a game.

All the games that I have played have had a winner and a loser.

How is playing the Real Game different?

 

Answer:

We make up the games we play. We can make up games that are competitive; we can also make up games that are mutually supportive.

The game we are now playing is one of mutual support. You ask a question; I support you, as best I can, with an answer. This is a game we both created and agreed to play together.

Many of the games that are set up as competitive can also be played in mutual support. For example: I coach owners of businesses who are ready to see their businesses as places to have fun. The process is reclaiming the power they have hidden in the beliefs that business must be competitive and adversarial.

There is no power outside of us. However, we have used this power to make it seem otherwise. This is a fun game that doesn't seem like fun until we reclaim enough power to appreciate what is really going on. I wrote THE JOURNEY to support those who are ready to take this next step toward reclaiming their power.
